SUMMARY:What Happens when Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math?  (Anne Cawley\, Cal Poly Pomona)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Anne Cawley\, Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics\, Cal Poly Pomona\, CA \nTitle: What Happens When Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? \nAbstract: 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. However\, what happens when we complete our mathematical work but we choose to ignore what that work tells us? This talk discusses my experience teaching a lesson within a Teaching Math for Social Justice course related to a recent Supreme Court case on voting rights. Many students used mathematics to support an argument that the Supreme Court made in a February hearing\, however\, due to their personal perspectives\, provided a conclusion that differed from what the math indicated. This talk shares about the tensions that can arise when considering math and social justice. \nBio: Anne Cawley is an associate professor of Mathematics and Statistics at Cal Poly Pomona. Her research in Mathematics Education relates to equity\, specifically to classroom experiences of historically underrepresented students\, sense of belonging\, and math instruction in the first two years of college. She provides professional development for mathematics faculty at toward equity-minded teaching practices. Anne is the course coordinator for co-requisite mathematics courses at Cal Poly Pomona\, working with various campus partners for student success. She is also an active member in various mathematics education organizations such as AMATYC\, RUME\, and MESCal. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Frameworks in Motion: Design\, Theory\, and Fabrication (Jessica Sidman\, Amherst College
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jessica Sidman\, Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science\, Amherst College \nTitle: Frameworks in Motion: Design\, Theory\, and Fabrication \nAbstract: 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. In 1981 architect Santiago Calatrava wrote a PhD thesis\, “Concerning the Foldability of Space Frames\,” containing a systematic exploration of the geometry and design of foldable frameworks. I’ll use his thesis as a jumping off point to explore the Geiringer-Laman Theorem and ideas for further research.\n \nBio:  Jessica Sidman loves to work on pure and applied problems at the intersection of computational algebra\, algebraic geometry\, and combinatorics. Her recent work in rigidity theory combines aspects of these three fields\, and all got started when an undergraduate doing a thesis on protein folding asked her a question about projective space. She got her B.A. from Scripps College\, a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan\, and did postdoctoral work at UC Berkeley and UMass Amherst.  She was the Professor of Mathematics on the John Stewart Kennedy Foundation at Mount Holyoke College and is now the Brian E. Boyle Professor in Mathematics and Computer Science at Amherst College.

SUMMARY:CCMS Colloquium: Braids\, Polynomials\, and Hilbert’s 13th Problem (Jesse Wolfson\, UC Irvine)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:Jesse Wolfson\, UC Irvine \nTitle: Braids\, Polynomials\, and Hilbert’s 13th Problem \nAbstract: 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 effort to understand how the roots of a polynomial depend on the coefficients. The goal of this talk is to explain part of the circle of ideas surrounding these questions. Along the way\, we will encounter some beautiful classical objects – the space of monic\, degree d square-free polynomials\, algebraic functions\, lines on cubic surfaces\, level structures on Jacobians\, braid groups\, Galois groups\, and configuration spaces – all intimately related to each other\, all with mysteries still to reveal. This is ongoing joint work with Benson Farb and Mark Kisin. \nBio: Jesse Wolfson is an associate professor and vice chair of inclusive excellence in the department of mathematics at the University of California\, Irvine.  His research focuses on long-standing open problems at the interface of algebra\, geometry and topology.  His perspective on geometry and topology emerges in part from his long-running exchange with choreographer Reggie Wilson. He currently serves on the board of directors of Wilson’s Fist and Heel Performance Group\, an internationally acclaimed Brooklyn based “Post-African neo-hoodoo modern dance company.”
