Dragging the roots of a polynomial to the unit circle (Sinai Robins, University of Sao Paulo)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaSeveral conditions are known for a self-inversive polynomial that ascertain the location of its roots, and we present a framework for comparison of those conditions. We associate a parametric family […]

Applied Math Talk: Statistical Mechanics of Molecular Evolution and its Role in the SELEX Protocol given by Prof. Bhaven Mistry (CMC)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaAntibodies are the standard biomolecule for marking molecular structures and delivering drugs due to their specific binding capabilities. However, they are expensive to produce and their relatively large size prevents […]

Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of edge ideals of graphs (Siamak Yassemi, University of Tehran)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaLet K be a field and S = K be the polynomial ring in n variables over K. For a graded S-module M with minimal free resolution the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity […]

Stefano Vidussi (UCRiverside)
Title: The BNS invariant of the fundamental group of a surface bundle over a surface. Abstract: We will discuss some new results on the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel invariant of these groups, showing […]

A Tauberian theorem and some of its applications
Freeberg Forum, LC 62, Kravis Center, CMCIn general terms, a Tauberian theorem deals with the relationship between the properties of one transform of a measure with those of another transform. We will introduce the notion of […]

GEMS Workshop: Superheroes vs. Supercomputers with Professor Jeho Park of Claremont McKenna College
Shanahan 1480, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United StatesTOPIC: Superheroes vs. Supercomputers Superheroes like Wonder Woman, Black Panther, Superman, and Captain Marvel, just to name a few, all have "super" power and they save the world from "super"-villains. Well, just one catch--they are not real. In our real world, there are computers built for super power to save the (real) world. In this […]

Covering point-sets with parallel hyperplanes and sparse signal recovery (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaLet S be a set of k > n points in n-dimensional Euclidean space. How many parallel hyperplanes are needed to cover it? In fact, it is easy to prove […]

Tommaso Cremaschi (USC)
Title: Volumes and filling collections of multicurves Abstract: In this talk we will be concerned with links L in a Seifert-Fibered space N such that their projection to the base […]

Kernel approaches in global statistical distances, local measure detection, and active learning
Freeberg Forum, LC 62, Kravis Center, CMCIn this talk, we'll discuss the problem of constructing meaningful distances between probability distributions given only finite samples from each distribution. We approach this through the use of data-adaptive and […]

Applied Math Talk: Robust Estimators for Monte Carlo data given by Prof. Mark Huber (CMC)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaData coming from Monte Carlo experiments is often analyzed in the same way as data from more traditional sources. The unique nature of Monte Carlo data, where it is easy […]

Quandle module quivers (Sam Nelson, CMC)
Emmy Noether Room, Millikan 1021, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CaliforniaQuandle coloring quivers categorify the quandle counting invariant. In this talk we enhance the quandle coloring quiver invariant with quandle modules, generalizing both the quiver invariant and the quandle module […]
