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 […]
Title: Geometric classification problems with the Bergman metric Abstract: One of the common problems in mathematics is the classification problem: When are two mathematical structures really the same? The classification problem appears throughout undergraduate mathematics courses in different forms. For example, in an abstract algebra course, one asks when are two groups isomorphic? In a […]
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 […]
Abstract: The shape of the fluctuations as heat approaches equilibrium in an insulated body are governed by the first Neumann eigenfunction of the Laplacian. Rauch's hot spots conjecture states that the extrema of the first nontrivial Neumann Laplacian eigenfunction for a Lipschitz domain lies on the boundary. While this conjecture is false in general, its […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Abstract: It is common to use adjuvants in immunotherapeutic regimens to strengthen the immune response. However, multiple dosages are required making it inconvenient for the patient. Hydrogels have been proposed […]
Given any finite set of integer points S, there is an associated function f_S that encodes S, which we call its integer point transform. One can think of this integer […]
