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)

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 […]

Modeling Mechanisms of Ovulatory (Dys)Function (Erica Graham, Bryn Mawr College)

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

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 […]
