Applied Math Talk: Set your parasites low (or high) given by Professor Maryann Hohn (Pomona College)
Individuals may choose to create social groups where their individual fitness and success is influenced by those around them. A group may increase an individual's success in finding food, shelter, and safety; however, if the group fails, so does the individual. In this talk, we will explore how choices of individuals influence group dynamics using both agent-based modeling […]
Computational bounds for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups (Mike Orrison, HMC)
Computational bounds for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups (Mike Orrison, HMC)
In this talk, I will describe an approach to finding upper bounds for the number of arithmetic operations necessary for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups. The approach takes advantage of the intrinsic orbital structure of permutation modules, and it uses the multiplicities of irreducible submodules within individual orbital spaces to express […]

Epidemiological models for Ebola exploring different dynamics
Epidemiological models for Ebola exploring different dynamics
In today's environment of universal connection and media updates, we are constantly informed about infectious diseases and the ramifications. We can combat infectious diseases using mathematics to gain insight into diseases dynamics and outbreaks. I will focus primarily on Ebola Virus Disease, exploring different models focused on capturing various dynamics. First, I will present a […]
