Accidental Mathematics (Matt Stamps, Yale-NUs College)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

Abstract:  Growing up, I always loved learning about world-changing scientific breakthroughs that were discovered by accident.  Penicillin, artificial sweeteners, X-rays, and synthetic dyes are just a few of the discoveries […]

Some Unexpected Mathematics Arising From Research at NIST ( Hunt, NIST)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

A lot of the mathematics done at NIST supports the research on and measurement of advanced materials and technology. In this rather applied context. surprising mathematics makes an appearance. We […]

Reasoning about Liability of Intelligent Agents ( Naumov, CMC)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

Abstract: As intelligent agents assume larger role in our daily lives, reasoning by humans about liability of such agents as well as reasoning by the intelligent agents themselves about liability […]

On the interplay of functional analysis and operator theory (Puig de Dios, UCR)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

Abstract: We overview some basic and striking facts concerning the theory of hypercyclic operators (considered to be born in 1982): 1. Hypercyclicity is a purely infinite-dimensional phenomenon: no finite dimensional […]

A General Bayesian Discrete Time Survival Model (King, CPP)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

Abstract: "We present a general Bayesian statistical model for discrete time, discrete state space stochastic processes. Applications include the modeling of recurrent and episodic disease processes, such as episodes of […]

A Conformal Mapping Approach to Shape Optimization Problems. (Kao, CMC)

Shanahan B460, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

Abstract: In this talk, a conformal mapping approach to shape optimization problems on planar domains will be discussed. In particular, spectral methods based on conformal mappings are proposed to solve Steklov […]

Data-driven multiscale modeling of cell fate dynamics

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

Cells make fate decisions in response to dynamic environmental and pathological stimuli as well as cell-to-cell communications. Recent technological breakthroughs have enabled to gather data in previously unthinkable quantities at […]

Freeways and Circle Packing

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

The beauty of mathematics is often encountered when one discovers that two apparently very different phenomena actually share a common origin. I will discuss such a surprising connection between two […]
