    We'll be back next week!

  • Graphical designs: combinatorics and applications (Catherine Babecki, Caltech)

    Estella 2099

    A graphical design is a quadrature rule for a graph inspired by classical numerical integration on the sphere. Broadly speaking, that means a graphical design is a relatively small subset of graph vertices chosen to capture the global behavior of functions from the vertex set to the real numbers. We first motivate and define graphical […]

  • CCMS Colloquium: Robert Cass (CMC)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Assistant Professor of Mathematics Robert Cass of Claremont McKenna College: Title: An introduction to the Langlands program Abstract: Class field theory, which was established in the early 20th century, has its origins in Gauss's law of quadratic reciprocity. As such, it allows one to determine whether certain […]

  • Algebraic lattices and Pisot polynomials (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)

    Estella 2099

    A Z-module M in a number field K gives rise to a lattice in the corresponding Euclidean space via Minkowski embedding. Such lattices often carry inherited structure from the number field in question and can be attractive from both, theoretical and applied perspectives. We consider this construction when M is spanned by the set of […]

  • Analysis seminar: Transfinite Apollonian metric (Zair Ibragimov, CSU Fullerton)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    Title: Transfinite Apollonian metric Abstract: The concept of transfinite diameter of compact sets in the complex plane was introduced by Fekete in 1923. It is a generalization of the standard diameter of sets and has found many applications in the study of conformal mappings. The Apollonian metric was introduced by A. Beardon in 1995 and […]

  • CCMS Colloquium: Ruby Kim (University of Michigan)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Ruby Kim (University of Michigan) Title: Mathematical Models of Circadian Rhythms and Seasonal Timing Abstract: The circadian clock shapes nearly 24-hour periodic rhythms throughout the body, from the activity of individual cells to our daily sleep/wake cycles. These rhythms can be self-sustained (for example, people still show circadian […]

  • GEMS October 4th Session

    Shanahan B450, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, United States

    This GEMS session will be facilitated by Professor Chiu-Yen Kao from Claremont McKenna College. Title: Finding Your Optimal Paths Abstract: Path planning plays an important role in many aspects of […]

  • CCMS Colloquium: Sinai Robins (University of São Paulo – Brazil)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Sinai Robins (University of São Paulo - Brazil) Title: An introduction to the geometry of numbers through the lens of analysis Abstract: We introduce the geometry of numbers, beginning from the first principles, and proceeding to modern research topics in the field. Our point of view includes […]
