What Happens when Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? (Anne Cawley, Cal Poly Pomona)
What Happens when Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? (Anne Cawley, Cal Poly Pomona)
Speaker: Anne Cawley, Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, Cal Poly Pomona, CA Title: What Happens When Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? Abstract: Many people often share that they like math because there is “one right answer” and is an objective field. Once they find the answer, they are done with a problem. […]

Frameworks in Motion: Design, Theory, and Fabrication (Jessica Sidman, Amherst College
Frameworks in Motion: Design, Theory, and Fabrication (Jessica Sidman, Amherst College
Speaker: Jessica Sidman, Professor in Mathematics and Computer Science, Amherst College Title: Frameworks in Motion: Design, Theory, and Fabrication Abstract: What do your umbrella, a folding gate, and a scissor lift have in common? They all involve frameworks made of rigid parts attached at flexible joints and are designed to move with one degree of freedom. […]

Braids, Polynomials, and Hilbert’s 13th Problem (Jesse Wolfson, University of California, Irvine)
Braids, Polynomials, and Hilbert’s 13th Problem (Jesse Wolfson, University of California, Irvine)
Speaker: Jesse Wolfson, Associate Professor of Mathematics, University of California, Irvine CA Title: Braids, Polynomials, and Hilbert's 13th Problem Abstract: There are still completely open fundamental questions about polynomials in one variable. One example is Hilbert's 13th Problem, a conjecture going back long before Hilbert. Indeed, the invention of algebraic topology grew out of an […]
