Differential Equations and Nonlinear Analysis Seminar: Aris Daniilidis, TU Wien, Slope determination: from convex to Lipschitz continuous functions
ZoomA 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…
Computational and Applied Mathematics Seminar: Jian-Guo Liu, Duke University, Optimal Control for Transition Path Problems in Markov Jump Processes
SAS 4201Transition 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…
Math Honors Presentation Session: Kelsey Hanser, Mathew Kushelman and Logan Martyn
SAS 22031. 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…
Geometry and Topology Seminar: Irina Kogan, NC State, An Introduction to Computational Invariant Theory (Part II)
SAS 4201Invariants 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…
Mathematics Department Commencement Ceremony
McKimmon Center, Raleigh NCPlease save the date for the Department of Mathematics Spring 2024 Graduation Ceremony. Commencement starts at 5:30PM, with guest seating starting at 5:00PM.
GAMMA (Games in Applied Math, Modeling, and Analysis)
SAS 2235Discover 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…
Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar: Apoorva Khare, Indian Institute of Science (Bangalore, India), Schur polynomials: from smooth functions to symmetric function identities
SAS 1102Cauchy'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…
Biomathematics Seminar: Orlando Arguello-Miranda, Department of Plant and Microbial Biology at NC State, Deep learning and the yet-to-be-discovered mathematical principles of biology
Cox 306Biology 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…
Geometry and Topology: Teemu Saksala, NC State, Hyperbolic inverse problems with time dependent and time independent coefficients
SAS 4201In 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…
Fall 2024 Beginning of Semester Meeting
SAS 4201We will have Howling Cow ice cream at 3:45 in SAS 4104. The departmental meeting will start at 4:15pm in SAS 4201.
Computational and Applied Mathematics: Daniel Serino, Los Alamos National Lab, Structure-Preserving Machine Learning for Dynamical Systems
ZoomDeveloping 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…
Department of Mathematics Fall Picnic
The Corner at Centennial CampusI 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…
Stochastics and Discrete Analysis Seminar: Michael Hott, University of Minnesota, On the quest for superconductivity in Twisted Bilayer Graphene
SAS 4201Conventional 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…
Geometry and Topology Seminar: James Kolesar, NC State, Shape Optimization and the First Laplace Eigenvalue
SAS 4201In 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,…
Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar: Corey Jones, NC State, An algebraic approach to discrete quantum field theories
SAS 4201We 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…
Biomathematics Seminar: Lauren Childs, Department of Mathematics at Virginia Tech, Assessing the Impact of the Wolbachia-Based Control of Malaria
Cox 306Malaria 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.…
Algebra and Combinatorics Seminar: Yairon Cid-Ruiz, NC State, Multiplicities and integral dependence
SAS 4201The theory of integral closure of ideals, originating in the early twentieth century with work of Krull, Zariski, Rees, and others, remains a vibrant area of research in algebraic geometry,…
