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…
Dr. Timsina's Talk: Identifiability and optimal control analysis of HIV infection and opioid addiction model. Abstract: In a compartmental model of HIV infection and opioid addiction, dynamics such as equilibria, basic reproduction…
I will talk about the new construction of genus-zero free boundary minimal surfaces embedded in the unit ball in the Euclidean three-space which are compact and lie arbitrarily close to…

Lascoux polynomials are K-theoretic analogues of the key polynomials. They both have combinatorial formulas involving tableaux: reverse set-valued tableaux (RSVT) rule for Lascoux polynomials and reverse semistandard Young tableaux (RSSYT)…
Classification is a fundamental task in data science and machine learning, and in the past ten years there have been significant improvements on classification tasks (e.g. via deep learning). However,…
For any metric space, the metric gives deep insight into the space such as geometry and topology of the space. Rather than directly studying a specific space, one may wish…
We consider sensitivity analysis of Bayesian inverse problems with respect to modeling uncertainties. To this end, we consider sensitivity analysis of the information gain, as measured by the Kullback-Leibler divergence…
Mean field games (MFGs) study strategic decision-making in large populations where individual players interact via specific mean-field quantities. They have recently gained enormous popularity as powerful research tools with vast…
Jointly in person and virtually on Zoom. SAS 2225 for in-person participation. The Zoom link is sent out to the Algebra and Combinatorics mailing list, please contact Corey Jones at cmjones6@ncsu.edu to…
In this talk, I want to present some of the ideas behind the theory of embodied cognition, which is a theory that tries to understand how our teaching and learning…
