H.T. Banks, North Carolina State University, Population Models-The Prohorov Metric Framework and Aggregate Data Inverse Problems
SAS 4201We consider nonparametric estimation of probability measures for parameters in problems where only aggregate (population level) data are available. We summarize an existing computational method for the estimation problem which…
Juanita Pinzon-Caicedo, NC State, Instanton and Heegaard Floer homologies of surgeries on torus knots
SAS 2102A Floer homology is an invariant of a closed, oriented 3-manifold Y that arises as the homology of a chain complex whose generators are either the set of solutions to…

SAS 4104Randall LeVeque, University of Washington, Adjoint Error Estimation for Adaptive Refinement of Hyperbolic PDEs
SAS 1102Time-dependent hyperbolic partial differential equations can be efficiently solved using adaptive mesh refinement, with a hierarchy of finer grid patches in regions where the solution is discontinuous or rapidly varying.…
Phillip Andreae, Meredith College, Infinite sums, infinite products, and million dollar prizes
SAS 2102In calculus, we study series and learn how to add infinitely many numbers--but how about multiplying infinitely many numbers? In this talk, we'll start with familiar series from calculus, and…
Adam Marcus, Princeton University, Ramanujan colorings
An important construction for (the information theoretic version of) semantic security is a "Biregular Irreducible Function" (BRI). These can be constructed from a complete biregular graph on $2^k d \times…
Triangle Lectures in Combinatorics

Kwangil Koh Reception
SAS Hall LobbyKwangil Koh Lecture: Amie Wilkinson, Illuminating a Mathematical Landscape
SAS 2203Turn 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…
Alexander Kiselev, Duke University, Small scale formation in ideal fluids
SAS 4201The incompressible Euler equation of fluid mechanics describes motion of ideal fluid, and was derived in 1755. In two dimensions, global regularity of solutions is known, and double exponential in…
Alex Chandler, NC State, Spectral Sequences Working Seminar
Spectral sequences in Khovanov homology.
Sherli Koshy-Chenthittayil, University of Connecticut, Mathematical modeling in biological scenarios
My research has been in two broad areas namely mathematical biology and disability studies. This talk will touch upon three of my projects in mathematical biology and one project in…
Jonathan Hanselman, Princeton, The cosmetic surgery conjecture and Heegaard Floer homology
Duke University, Physics 119The cosmetic surgery conjecture states that no two surgeries on a given knot produce the same 3-manifold (up to orientation preserving diffeomorphism). Floer homology has proved to be a powerful…
