Title: Kolmogorov, Onsager and a Dyadic Model for Turbulence Abstract: We will briefly review Kolmogorov’s ( 41) theory of homogeneous turbulence and Onsager’s ( 49 ) conjecture that in 3-dimensional […]

Markov chains have become widely-used to generate random political districting plans. These random districting plans can be used to form a baseline for comparison, and any proposed districting plans that […]
Title: Frequentist Model Averaging in the Generalized Multinomial Logit Model Speaker: Tonia Zeng, Applied Business Sciences and Economics, University of La Verne Abstract: The generalized multinomial logit (GMNL) model accommodates […]
Title: Mathematical modeling of polymerization processes in physiology Abstract: Polymerization, or aggregation, is essential for many physiological systems. For example, the emergence of a fibrin polymer mesh during the formation of […]
"A Tale of Two Cities" is a novel told in three books/parts. Here we describe three projects related both to published work and ongoing pieces: PROJECT 1: In the world […]
Title: Packing lines, minimizing energy, and applications to communications Speaker: Josiah Park, Department of Mathematics, Texas A&M University Abstract: Structured geometric point sets play important roles in coding theory, mathematical […]
The members of the “Invisible College” and the early Royal Society championed an experimental approach to the study of nature as the proper path to the advancement of knowledge and […]
Title: Randomized Sums of Graph Spectra Abstract: The adjacency matrix of an Erdős-Rényi-Gilbert graph is a random symmetric matrix whose entries are Bernoulli random variables. These entries, modulo the constraints […]
Given a degree d polynomial f(x) in Q, consider the subset S_f of Q consisting of rational numbers t for which the translated polynomial f(x) - t factors completely in […]
Title: Shape Optimization: Old and New Speaker: Edouard Oudet, LJK, Université Grenoble Alpes Abstract: We first introduce what is shape Optimization and the most classical problems of the field like the […]
We introduce a family of norms on the space of self-adjoint trace class symmetric tensor power of linear operators acting on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. Our technique is to extend […]
