Applied Math Talk: Patterns deformed by spatial inhomogeneity give by Prof. Jasper Weinburd (HMC)
Applied Math Talk: Patterns deformed by spatial inhomogeneity give by Prof. Jasper Weinburd (HMC)
At the turn of the twentieth century, physicist Henri Bénard heated a shallow plate of fluid from below. For temperatures above a critical value, the fluid’s evenly heated state became unstable as thermal convection took hold; heated fluid rose in localized areas while cooler fluid fell nearby. The rising and falling fluid created hexagonal convection cells, […]

Exponential domination in grids (Michael Young, Iowa State University)
Exponential domination in grids (Michael Young, Iowa State University)
Domination in graphs has been an important and active topic in graph theory for over 40 years. It has immediate applications in visibility and controllability. In this talk we will discuss a generalization of domination called exponential domination. A vertex $v$ in an exponential dominating set assigns weight $2^{1−dist(v,u)}$ to vertex $u$. An exponential dominating […]
