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 […]
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.
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
In 1846, Ernst Eduard Kummer conjectured a distribution of values of a cubic Gauss sum after computing a few values by hand. This was forgotten about for nearly 100 years […]
A normally functioning menstrual cycle requires significant crosstalk between hormones originating in ovarian and brain tissues. Reproductive hormone dysregulation may disrupt function and can lead to infertility, as occurs in […]
