Title: Modern techniques to approach the invariant subspace problem Abstract: The invariant subspace problem is by far one of the most important problems in operator theory. It has been open for more than half a century, and there are many significant contributions with a huge variety of techniques, making this challenging problem so interesting; however […]
Frame coherence and nearly orthogonal lattices (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
Frame coherence and nearly orthogonal lattices (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
A frame in a Euclidean space is a spanning set, which can be overdetermined. Large frames are used for redundant signal transmission, which allows for error correction. An important parameter of frames is coherence, which is maximal absolute value of the cosine of the angle between two frame vectors: the smaller it is, the closer […]
Experimental Knot Music v2 (Sam Nelson, CMC)
Experimental Knot Music v2 (Sam Nelson, CMC)
In this talk I will recount the history of my knot theory-based music project and show an example of my method for creating music from knot homsets.
Modeling the waning and boosting of immunity (Prof. Lauren Childs)
Modeling the waning and boosting of immunity (Prof. Lauren Childs)
Title: Modeling the waning and boosting of immunity Speaker: Dr. Lauren Childs Assistant Professor and the Cliff and Agnes Lilly Faculty Fellow Virgina Tech Abstract: Infectious disease often leads to significant loss of life and burden on society. Understanding disease dynamics is essential to the development and implementation of earlier and more effective interventions. Traditionally, perfect, […]
