This dissertation presents three treatments of mathematical modeling to two relevant areas of biological application.We apply foam physics to the morphometry of cell packings of notochords, elastic membrane physics to notochord biomechanics,…
In this talk, we will introduce the special Lagrangian and Lagrangian mean curvature type equations. We will derive a priori interior estimates for the Lagrangian mean curvature equation under certain natural restrictions…
We plan on having the beginning-of-the-semester departmental meeting on Monday, August 28, at 4:15 p.m. in SAS 4201. Dean Lewis Owen will join the meeting in the beginning with welcoming…

Reading’s shard intersection order is a lattice structure on a finite Coxeter group which is weaker than the weak order. This structure also appears in the representation theory of finite-dimensional…
The speakers will talk about how to use Gradescope to streamline the grading process for assignments and exams. No experience with Gradescope is assumed, but the speakers will share tips…

We describe an algorithm to compute Whitney stratifications of real algebraic varieties. The basic idea is to first stratify the complexified version of the given real variety using conormal techniques,…
A theorem of Liouville asserts that the simplest conformal transformations on Euclidean space---translations, dilations, reflections, and inversions---generate all conformal transformations when the dimension is at least 3. I will describe…
Determining the sensitivity of model outputs to input parameters is an important precursor to developing informative parameter studies, building surrogate models, and performing rigorous uncertainty quantification. Determining parameter sensitivities over…

Research shows inequitable participation patterns are pervasive in mathematics classrooms. Thus, an important consideration for mathematics instructors is promoting participation by students with historically marginalized backgrounds. Existing literature often focuses…
We discuss a sharp area estimate for minimal submanifolds that pass through a prescribed point in a geodesic ball in a space form. The estimate in Euclidean space was first conjectured by…
We introduce a Swarm-Based Random Descent (SBRD) method for non-convex optimization. The swarm consists of agents, identified with positions, x, and masses, m. There are three key aspects to the…
This talk will introduce cluster algebras, with an emphasis on their combinatorics, and describe a recent joint result with Vincent Pilaud and Sibylle Schroll. At the heart of a cluster…
In this talk we present some recent result about the long time behavior of the solutions for some diffusion processes on a metric graph. We study evolution problems on a…
