Adaptive Experimental Design using Shrinkage Estimators (Evan Rosenman, Claremont McKenna College)
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesIn multi-armed trials, adaptive designs are a popular way to increase estimation efficiency or identify optimal treatments. Many recent papers have proposed adaptive methods for minimizing the error of unbiased […]

Kloosterman sums and Bessel functions (Robert Cass, CMC)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesKloosterman sums are explicit exponential sums which occur in several contexts in number theory and arithmetic geometry. Bessel functions encode a great deal of representation-theoretic information about finite groups of […]

Edge Ideals via Independence Polynomials of Graphs — Dalena Vien (Bryn Mawr)
Burkle 16, Claremont Graduate University 1021 N. Dartmouth Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesAbstract: Edge ideals of graphs provide a fertile ground for uncovering combinatorial expressions for algebraic invariants of squarefree monomial ideals. Many algebraic invariants of these edge ideals directly reflect combinatorial properties of their underlying graphs. In this talk, I will discuss how the independence polynomial P_G(x), the generating function for independent sets of a graph G, […]

Number Theory meets Differential Equations: Using Homotopy Continuation to Compute Shabat Polynomials
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesA Belyĭ pair \bigl( S,\, z(w) \bigr) is a compact, connected Riemann surface S together with a rational function z \colon S \to \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C}) which has at most three critical values […]

Hilbert basis for conical semigroups and indecomposable elements (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesThe unique minimal generating set for a semigroup of lattice points in an n-dimensional polyhedral cone is called its Hilbert basis. In the case when the cone is spanned by […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Sam Nelson (CMC)
Speaker: Sam Nelson (CMC) Title: Permutation Jones Polynomials Abstract: The Jones Polynomial is an important invariant of knots with applications in physics, quantum computation and more. In this talk I will introduce a family of generalizations of the Jones polynomial associated to permutations of finite sets and discuss their properties. _______ We especially welcome all […]

CCMS Colloquium: The Stochastic Logistic Map: Theory and Applications — Kimberly Ayers (CSU San Marcos)
Burkle 16, Claremont Graduate University 1021 N. Dartmouth Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesFlyer for Kim's talk. Abstract: The logistic map is one of the most famous examples in dynamical systems. Originally introduced as a simple model of population growth, it exhibits a […]

Brain Imaging and Mathematical Modeling of Alzheimer’s Disease (Peter Hinow, U. Wisconsin, Milwaukee)
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesA wide variety of medical imaging methods exist for research and diagnostic procedures on the Central Nervous System (CNS), among them Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Optical Imaging. Mathematical modeling […]

From the basics of extremal graph theory to bipartite Turan numbers of trees and star forests (Omid Khormali, HMC)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesExtremal graph theory asks how many edges a graph can have while avoiding a given substructure. We will begin with a brief, accessible introduction to this area, before turning to […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Helen Wong (CMC)
Roberts South 103 Roberts Hall South 103, Claremont McKenna College, E 8th St, Claremont, CA, United StatesSpeaker: Helen Wong (CMC) Title: Introduction to the colored Jones polynomial Abstract: This is a learning seminar. We will present an accessible definition of the colored Jones polynomial for knots and links and discuss the Volume Conjecture, which relates the colored Jones polynomial of K with the volume of its complement S^3 \K. _______ We […]
