Differential Equations and Nonlinear Analysis Seminar: Ming Chen, University of Pittsburgh, Global bifurcation for hollow vortex desingularization
ZoomA hollow vortex is a region of constant pressure bounded by a vortex sheet and suspended inside a perfect fluid; we can think of it as a spinning bubble of…
Computational and Applied Mathematics Seminar: Vakhtang Putkaradze, University of Alberta, Lie-Poisson Neural Networks (LPNets): Data-Based Computing of Hamiltonian Systems with Symmetries
SAS 4201Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have received much attention recently due to their potential for high-performance computations for complex physical systems, including data-based computing, systems with unknown parameters, and others. The…
Stochastics Seminar: Sayan Banerjee , UNC-Chapel Hill, Ergodicity and fluctuations of the Atlas model
SAS 4201We investigate the long-time behavior and stationary fluctuations of an infinite-dimensional rank-based diffusion process, called the Atlas model, where particles move as independent Brownian motions, with the lowest ranked particle…

SAS 4104Differential Equations and Nonlinear Analysis Seminar: Hakima Bessaih, FIU, Various numerical scheme for stochastic hydrodynamic models
ZoomWe will consider various models in hydrodynamic, including the 2d Navier-Stokes, Boussinesq equations, and a Brinkman-Forchheimer-Navier-Stokes equations in 3d. These models are driven by an external stochastic Brownian perturbation. We…
Teaching and Learning Seminar: Molly Fenn and Patty Clemons, NC State, Desmos Activity Builder
SAS 4201Desmos Activity Builder is an online tool that can be used in a variety of ways in and out of the classroom. It can be used to introduce concepts or…
Geometry and Topology Seminar: Peter J. Olver, University of Minnesota, Structure and Generators of Differential Invariant Algebras
SAS 1216The structure of algebras of differential invariants, particularly their generators, is based on the symbolic invariant calculus provided by the method of equivariant moving frames. I will discuss a new…
Applied Math Graduate Student Seminar: John Darges, NC State, Sensitivity Analysis in Forward and Inverse Problems
SAS 4201Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) offers a flexible framework for understanding the structural importance of uncertain parameters in mathematical models. This dissertation focuses on forward and inverse problems arising in uncertainty…
Biomathematics Seminar: Elizabeth Brunk, UNC, Elucidating Mechanisms of Uneven DNA Segregation and its Impact on Cellular Processes
Cox 306This talk will be in person in Cox 306 where snacks and refreshments will be provided, there will also be a virtual option for those who cannot attend in person. Speaker's website…
Geometry and Topology Seminar: Adam Lowrance, Vassar College, The average value of invariants of 2-bridge knots.
ZoomWe show how to use continued fraction representations of 2-bridge knots to compute the average value of different invariants of the set of 2-bridge knots with fixed crossing number c.…
Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar: Lorenzo Vecchi, KTH, Categorical valuative invariants of matroids
SAS 4201In this talk we define a new category of matroids, by working on matroid polytopes and rank preserving weak maps. This lets us introduce the concept of categorical valuativity for…

Computational and Applied Mathematics – Differential Equations and Nonlinear Analysis Seminar: Alexey Miroshnikov, Discover Financial Services, Stability theory of game-theoretic group feature explanations for machine learning models.
SAS 4201In this article, we study feature attributions of Machine Learning (ML) models originating from linear game values and coalitional values defined as operators on appropriate functional spaces. The main focus…
Stochastics Seminar: Amarjit Budhiraja, UNC-Chapel Hill, Large deviations for weakly interacting diffusions and mean field stochastic control problems
SAS 4201Consider a collection of particles whose state evolution is described through a system of interacting diffusions in which each particle is driven by an independent individual source of noise and…
