Math Honors Presentation Session: Kelsey Hanser, Mathew Kushelman and Logan Martyn

SAS 2203

1. Kelsey Hanser Title : Greedy Kohnert Posets  Abstract : K-Kohnert polynomials form a large family of polynomials which generalize Lascoux polynomials. Each K-Kohnert polynomial encodes a certain collection of diagrams which is formed from an initial seed diagram by applying what are called “Kohnert" and “ghost moves." In particular, Kohnert polynomials are the restrictions…

Geometry and Topology Seminar: Thomas Weighill, The University of North Carolina at Greensboro, Coarse Embeddings into Hilbert Space for Spaces of Point Clouds

SAS 4201

Given a space X, one may want to know if it can be embedded into a vector space in a controlled way. Interestingly, this question is of interest in both abstract mathematics (for example, it has implications for the Novikov Conjecture) and in data science, where such embeddings are a necessary preprocessing step to traditional…

Teaching and Learning Seminar:Megan Ryals, University of Virginia,Integrating Research and Practice: The Development of Technology-Based Learning Activities in Multivariable Calculus

SAS 4201

Students often perceive Multivariable Calculus as a collection of disconnected ideas and approach problem solving in the course formulaically.  Students need help from instructors in developing spatial reasoning and making connections between symbolic computations and graphical representations. In this talk I will share how I integrated results of research on students’ learning of differential calculus…
