  • A tribute to Euler

    Freeberg Forum, LC 62, Kravis Center, CMC

    Among the greatest of mathematicians is Leonhard Euler (1707-1783), whose insight, industry, and ingenuity are unsurpassed in the long history of mathematics. In this talk we sketch Euler’s life, describe the quantity and quality of his mathematical output, and discuss a few of his discoveries from the realms of number theory, geometry, analysis, and combinatorics. […]

  • Pre-Colloquium Non-Colloquium Party

    Millikan Courtyard, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    The traditional year-opening social event for the Claremont Colleges Mathematics Community will be held in the Millikan Courtyard. Spouses, partners, and family are welcome. Professors Ali Nadim (CGU) and Blerta Shtylla (POM), co-chairs, hope to see everyone there for refreshments, and other pleasant pursuits.

  • Applied math organizational meeting

    Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, California

    We will have an organizational meeting for the applied math seminar today. Anyone who is interested in suggesting speakers and/or organizing applied math seminar is welcome to come. 

  • Small representations of integers by integral quadratic form (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)

    Millikan 2099, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Given an isotropic integral quadratic form which assumes a value t, we investigate the distribution of integer points at which this value is assumed. Building on the previous work about the distribution of small-height zeros of quadratic forms, we produce bounds on height of points outside of some algebraic sets in a quadratic space at […]

  • An Algebra of Arcs and Knots on a Surface (Helen Wong, CMC)

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    The end of the previous century saw radical changes to three-dimensional topology, which arose from two completely different approaches. One breakthrough came from Bill Thurston's introduction of hyperbolic geometry into […]

  • Diffusion, Social Networks, and Logic (Pavel Naumov, CMC)

    Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, California

    Once a new commercial product, technology, political opinion, or social norm is adopted by a few people, these few often put peer pressure on others to consider adopting it as […]

  • Inversions for reduced words (Sami Assaf, USC)

    Millikan 2099, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    The number of inversions of a permutation is an important statistic that arises in many contexts, including as the minimum number of simple transpositions needed to express the permutation and, […]

  • Fall 2018 Poster Session

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    CLAREMONT CENTER for MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES Fall 2018 Poster Session Click here for poster abstracts. Computing Eigenmodes of the Laplace-Beltrami Operator by Using Radial Basis Functions by Vladimir Delengov, Chiu-Yen Kao […]

  • Quandle coloring quivers (Sam Nelson, CMC)

    Millikan 2099, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Given a finite quandle $X$, a set $S \subset \mathrm{Hom}(X,X)$ of quandle endomoprhisms, and an oriented knot or link $L$, we construct a quiver-valued invariant of oriented knots and links. […]

  • Snow Business: Scientific Computing in the Movies and Beyond (Joseph Teran, UCLA)

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    New applications of scientific computing for solid and fluid mechanics problems include simulation of virtual materials in movie visual effects and virtual surgery. Both disciplines demand physically realistic dynamics for materials like […]

  • Reaction-Diffusion Equations under Perturbations of the Domain (Professor Jose Arrieta, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain)

    Shanahan 3465, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

    We analyze the behavior of the asymptotic dynamics of dissipative reaction-diffusion equations with Neumann boundary conditions when the domain where the equation is posed undergoes certain perturbation. We will focus on the behavior of the stationary solutions, their local unstable manifolds and the attractors. We will consider "regular" perturbations of the domain, that is, perturbations […]
