Biquandle brackets are skein invariants of biquandle-colored knots, with skein coefficients that are functions of the colors at a crossing. Biquandle power brackets take this idea a step further with state component values that also depend on biquandle colors. This is joint work with Neslihan Gügümcü (IYTE).
Title: Cellular resolutions of the diagonal and exceptional collections for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks Abstract: Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space which yields a strong, full exceptional collection of line bundles. Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels generalized Beilinson's result to a cellular resolution of the diagonal for what they called "unimodular" toric varieties (a more restrictive […]
Title: p-Norm Approval Voting Speaker: Michael Orrison, Professor of Mathematics, Harvey Mudd College Abstract: Approval voting is a relatively simple voting procedure: Given a set of candidates, each voter chooses a subset of the candidates, and the candidate chosen the most is then declared the winner. Interestingly, approval voting can be viewed as an extreme […]
A classic problem in graph theory is to find the chromatic number of a given graph: that is, to find the smallest number of colors needed to assign every vertex […]
Title: Cellular resolutions of the diagonal and exceptional collections for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks (Continued) Abstract: Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space which yields a strong, full […]
Title: Building the Fan of a Toric Variety Speaker: Reginald Anderson, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Claremont McKenna College Abstract: Roughly speaking, algebraic geometry studies the zero sets of polynomials, which […]
Title: Understanding SARS-CoV-2 viral rebounds with and without treatments. Abstract: In most instances, the characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 mirror the patterns of an acute infection, with viral load rapidly peaking around […]
Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space, which gives a strong, full exceptional collection of line bundles as a generating set for the derived category of […]
Title: Quantum 4-Manifold Invariants Via Trisections Abstract: I will describe a new family of potentially non-semisimple invariants for compact a 4-manifold whose boundary is equipped with an open book. The […]
Title: Thinking Inside the Box: A combinatorial approach to Schubert Calculus Speaker: Sami H. Assaf, Department of Mathematics, University of Southern California Abstract: Given 2 lines in the plane, how […]
Title: The Hartman-Watson distribution: numerical evaluation and applications in mathematical finance Abstract: The Hartman-Watson distribution appears in several problems of applied probability and financial mathematics. Most notably, it determines the […]
