Title: The fractional p-Laplacian operator. Motivation for its definition and related boundary value problems Abstract: Last decades, nonlocal operators, as the fractional Laplacian, have gained to much attention due to its applications to several physical Phenomena. In this talk we aim to motivate the definition of the fractional laplacian operator through a simple but quite […]
Negligible cohomology (Matthew Gherman, Caltech)
Negligible cohomology (Matthew Gherman, Caltech)
For a finite group G, a G-module M, and a field F, an element u in H^d(G,M) is negligible over F if for each field extension L/F and every continuous group homomorphism from Gal(L^{sep}/L) to G, u is in the kernel of the induced homomorphism H^d(G,M) to H^d(L,M). Negligible cohomology was first introduced by Serre […]
Claremont Topology Seminar: Elena Wang (Michigan State University)
Claremont Topology Seminar: Elena Wang (Michigan State University)
We welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Elena Wang (Michigan State University) Title: A Distance for Geometric Graphs via the Labeled Merge Tree Interleaving Distance Abstract: Geometric graphs appear in many real-world data sets, such as road networks, sensor networks, and molecules. We investigate the notion of distance between graphs […]
