Humans play games. Sometimes we roll the dice, or buy lottery tickets - sometimes we play chess, or mind games of manipulation. History gives us two examples of the development of new mathematical ideas and directions from our playful habits: games of chance, which led to the formulation of Probability Theory, and games of strategy,…
The goal of this conference is to bring young mathematicians together, both as speakers and as participants. The talks will cover an array of subject areas that are well represented in the Duke Journal. There will be nine talks by young mathematicians. More information can be found at: https://sites.duke.edu/dmj2018/
There are many reasons, moral and practical, why we need to diversify our mathematics departments — and more generally STEM departments and the workforce. But how do we go about it? A good starting point is to realize the various barriers to an inclusive environment. In this talk, a case study will be used to…

Turn on a light in the middle of a room: Is every spot illuminated? If the room is a complicated labyrinth, then probably not, but what if the walls of the room are mirrors? Amie Wilkinson of the University of Chicago will deliver the Department of Mathematics Kwangil Koh Lecture on Mathematics in Our Time through…
Geneva Collins Title : Automatic Geometric Theorem Proving: Sangaku From an Algebraic PerspectiveAbstract: During the Edo period (1603-1867 CE) Japan was almost completely closed off from the rest of the world and developed its own mathematical tradition called wasan. Part of this tradition was to hang tablets, known as sangaku, in the eaves of a…
Register now for a weekend anniversary celebration marking 130 years of mathematics education and research here at NC State. The history of mathematics at the university dates to 1889, when math courses were among the first taught as NC State ushered in its inaugural class of students. Harrelson Hall was the former home of the…
Systems governed by laws of self-organization arise in many different contexts including biology (swarming behavior of animals), social (opinion dynamics, social networks), technological (cosmology, control, robotics), and others. A particular challenge in studying such systems is to understand how local communication between "agents" gives rise to emergence of global collective behavior characterized by two basic phenomena -- alignment and flocking. In this…
We discuss the reasons for the introduction of Valuation Adjustments as a consequence of the financial crisis of 2007-9. We introduce an arbitrage-free framework for robust valuation adjustments. An investor trades a credit default swap portfolio with a defaultable counterparty. The investor does not know the expected rate of return of the counterparty bond, but…
Sandia National Laboratories is a federally funded research and development center that develops and applies science, technology, and engineering solutions for pressing national security challenges. Mathematics at all levels of rigor underpins every aspect of the work we do, and Sandians with academic degrees in applied mathematics impact a wide range of areas such as…
