A "frieze" is an infinite strip of numbers satisfying certain determinantal identities, or any one of several generalizations of this idea. In this talk, I will give an introduction to…
It is with great enthusiasm that I have the opportunity to announce to the College this year's nominees for the Staff Awards for Excellence. Your colleagues, listed below, have been…
End of year awards and tea.
A convex continuous function can be determined, up to a constant, by its remoteness (distance of the subdifferential to zero). Based on this result, we discuss possible extensions in three…
Transition paths connecting metastable states are significant in science and engineering, such as in biochemical reactions. In this talk, I will present a stochastic optimal control formulation for transition path…
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…
Invariants withstand transformations and, therefore, represent the essence of objects or phenomena. In mathematics, transformations often constitute a group action. Since the 19th century, studying the structure of various types…
Please save the date for the Department of Mathematics Spring 2024 Graduation Ceremony. Commencement starts at 5:30PM, with guest seating starting at 5:00PM.
Discover the beauty of mathematics and its wide applicability and power in everyday life! Grade Level: High School Students Schedule of Events: 11-11:15 am Drop Off 11:15-11:30 am Introductions…
Cauchy's determinantal identity (1840s) expands via Schur polynomials the determinant of the matrix f, where f(t) = 1/(1-t) is applied entrywise to the rank-one matrix u v^T = (u_i v_j). This theme has…
Biology is defined by non-linear reactions caused by numerous molecular components interacting inside living cells. The complexity of such systems has limited classical experimental approaches in their capacity to measure…
In this talk we will discuss the differences in the methodology of determining time-dependent and time-independent coefficients appearing in a hyperbolic equation in a Riemannian manifold. The talk is based…
We will have Howling Cow ice cream at 3:45 in SAS 4104. The departmental meeting will start at 4:15pm in SAS 4201.
Developing robust and accurate data-based models for dynamical systems originating from plasma physics and hydrodynamics is of paramount importance. These applications pose several challenges, including the presence of multiple scales…
I wanted to invite all of you to our Department of Mathematics Fall Picnic. We will be holding it at The Corner on Centennial Campus from 12-2 pm on August…
Conventional superconductivity emerges for weakly interacting Fermi gases, and its emergence has been studied in mathematical physics. Such conventional superconductors, however, have a very low critical temperature, making them very…
In this talk, I will explore the relationship between a domain's shape and its first Laplace eigenvalue, with emphasis on the domains which minimize, or are more generally critical points,…
We will give an introduction to nets of associative algebras over discrete metric spaces, which arise in mathematical physics as axiomatizations of the observables content of quantum field theories over…
Malaria is a deadly infectious disease causing over 200 million cases and over half a million deaths each year. It is transmitted through the bite of an infectious Anopheles mosquito.…
