Neutrinos are very weakly interacting particles that have unique properties that allow indirect measurements that cannot be realized with any other particle or field. I will give an introduction to…
We study the effect of total variation regularization on PDE-constrained optimization problems, where the control input functions may only attain finitely many integer values. The regularization helps to avoid undesirable…
Stochastic optimization problems with deterministic constraints commonly appear in machine learning, finance, and engineering applications. This talk presents a new adaptive solution strategy for this important class of problems. The…
We are excited to announce that SIAM is hosting another bootcamp: a two-part series that introduces you to MATLAB. Both graduate and undergrads are welcome, so please spread the word! You’re…
Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is characterized by an increase of heart rate of 30 beats per minute (40 bpm in patients aged 12-19 years) upon a postural change, combined…
Shape-shifting materials from 2D thin sheets to 3D shapes are attractive for broad applications in programmable machines and robots, functional biomedical devices, and four-dimensional printing. Kirigami, the art of paper cutting, has recently…
Control systems are a class of dynamical systems that contain forcing terms. When control systems are used in engineering applications, the forcing terms can represent forces that can be applied…
A panel of experienced instructors will share their thoughts on writing effective exams for undergraduate courses. The panel is timed to precede the first round of midterms for lower-division courses.…
I will provide an overview of how to apply for different graduate research fellowships. These can be very valuable as they provide lots of time to get research done, which…
If you are interested in learning more about applied math research from your fellow students, or you want a friendly and constructive environment to practice presenting your own applied math…
There is a well-established linear algebraic lens for studying consensus dynamics on networks, which has yielded significant theoretical results in areas like distributed computing, modeling of opinion dynamics, and ranking…
We are excited to announce that SIAM is hosting another bootcamp: a two-part series that introduces you to MATLAB. Both graduate and undergrads are welcome, so please spread the word! You’re…
The emerging single-cell and spatial genomics techniques allow us to elucidate the governing rules of multicellular systems with unprecedented resolution and depth. These datasets are often high-dimensional, complex, and heterogeneous.…
In this talk, we will discuss bordered aspects of the Heegaard Floer surgery formulas of Ozsvath--Szabo and Ozsvath--Manolescu. In particular, we will explain how their theories naturally define bordered invariants…
We consider a controlled reaction-diffusion equation, modeling the spreading of an invasive population. Our goal is to derive a simpler model, describing the controlled evolution of a contaminated set. We…
I will describe---using anecdotes, excerpts from textbooks, and thought experiments---various approaches to creating a narrative voice when teaching a calculus class. Zoom Meeting: Link
In this talk we develop a method for efficient computation of reduced-order nonlinear solutions (RONS). RONS is a framework to create reduced-order models for time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) where…
We show that the category of vector bundles over the vertices of a locally finite \tilde{A}_{n-1} building \Delta, Vec(\Delta), has the structure of a Tilt(SL_{2k+1}) module category. This module category…
Analysis of physical and engineering systems is characterized by unique computational challenges associated with high dimensionality of parameter spaces, large cost of simulations or experiments, as well as existence of…
