CCMS Colloquium: Sound Information is All You Need (Kobi Abayomi, Seton Hall University)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Kobi Abayomi, Head of Science, Gumbel Demand Acceleration Title: Sound Information is All You Need Abstract: It turns out that affinity for a song is predictable from its sound. We explore the statistical predictability of aggregate song demand from an informational representation. ___________________________ Bio: Dr. Abayomi is the Head of Science for Gumbel Demand […]

CCMS Colloquium: Math as the Gateway for STEM Achievement and Access: The Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM) Program (Dan Zaharopol, CEO BEAM)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Daniel Zaharopol, Founder of Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM), (AoPSI) The Art of Problem Solving Initiative, Inc. Title: Math as the Gateway for STEM Achievement and Access: The Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM) Program Abstract: Knowing facts is not enough to drive success in STEM fields: one also needs strong problem solving, […]

CCMS Colloquium: (Hrushikesh Mhaskar, Claremont Grad Uni.)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Hrushikesh Mhaskar, Distinguished Research Professor of Mathematics, Claremont Graduate University Title: Local Analysis Of Global Data Abstract: For a periodic integrable function f, the definition of Fourier coefficients requires the values of f on the entire period. We refer to such data as “global” data. Even though the sequence of Fourier coefficients determines f […]

CCMS Colloquium: Stochastic Agent-Based Models in Mathematical Biology (Nabil Fadai, University of Nottingham)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Nabil Fadai, Professor of Mathematical Biology, University of Nottingham Title: Stochastic Agent-Based Models in Mathematical Biology Abstract: In the last decade, there has been a movement to describe biological and social systems via agent-based models, which track individual agents (organisms, cells, people) and their environment through a set of deterministic and probabilistic rules. In this talk, […]

CCMS Colloquium: Journey of Black Mathematicians- Creating Pathways (Movie Screening, A film by George Csicsery)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Title: Journey of Black Mathematicians Film Description: Creating Pathways (2025) highlights the lives of Black mathematicians who pursued their education at predominantly White institutions. The film gauges the impacts of segregation and prejudice, surveys attitudes around identity, and introduces programs aimed at increasing the number of African Americans in STEM fields. Exploring questions about the […]

CCMS Colloquium: (Iris Yoon, Wesleyan University)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Iris Yoon, Professor of Mathematics, Wesleyan University Title: How Topology Reveals Structure in Neuroscience Data Abstract: We live in an exciting time where new data is generated at an exponential rate. Such data explosion necessitates the development of novel methods for studying large, noisy, and complex data. One interesting aspect of data is its shape and […]

CCMS Colloquium: Brownian Motion, Random Fractals, and Beyond (Yimin Xiao, Michigan State Uni)

Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

Speaker: Yimin Xiao, Professor of Statistics and Probability, Michigan State University Title: Brownian Motion, Random Fractals, and Beyond Abstract: Brownian motion is not only a fascinating object in mathematics but also a powerful stochastic model that has been applied in many scientific fields, from physics to finance, to biological sciences. The sample function of Brownian […]
