ANTC Seminar: Random Monomial Ideals (Lily Silverstein, CalPoly Pomona)

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

Probability is a now-classic tool in combinatorics, especially graph theory. Some applications of probabilistic techniques are: (1) describing the typical/expected properties of a class of objects, (2) uncovering phase transitions and sudden thresholds in the dependence of one property on another, and (3) producing examples of conjectured or unusual objects. (This last technique is sometimes […]

Applied Math Seminar On Unlimited Sampling given by Prof. Felix Krahmer (Technische Universität München)

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

Shannons sampling theorem provides a link between the continuous and thediscrete realms stating that bandlimited signals are uniquely determined by itsvalues on a discrete set. This theorem is realized in practice using so called analog to digital converters (ADCs). Unlike Shannons sampling theorem, the ADCs are limited in dynamic range. Whenever a signal exceeds some […]

A geospatial modeling analysis of travel-time, bicycles, and HIV elimination in sub-Saharan Africa: the case of Malawi

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

UNAIDS has proposed an ambitious strategy for ending the HIV pandemic. Their strategy depends upon achieving a treatment coverage goal of 90% by 2030. However, distance to healthcare and lack of transportation are major barriers to accessing HIV treatment in SSA. I will use data-based geospatial modeling to determine their potential impact as barriers to […]

GEMS Workshop: Working Together without a Leader with Professor Jasper Weinburd of Harvey Mudd College

Shanahan 1480, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

TOPIC: Working Together without a Leader Bees all work together by communicating and obeying the orders of the Queen. Other animals gather in swarms, flocks, or schools and move in complicated ways without any leader at all. In a school of fish, each one is identical and they all follow the same simple rules. Yet they still […]

Applied Math Talk: Set your parasites low (or high) given by Professor Maryann Hohn (Pomona College)

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

Individuals may choose to create social groups where their individual fitness and success is influenced by those around them.  A group may increase an individual's success in finding food, shelter, and safety; however, if the group fails, so does the individual.  In this talk, we will explore how choices of individuals influence group dynamics using both agent-based modeling […]

Computational bounds for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups (Mike Orrison, HMC)

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

In this talk, I will describe an approach to finding upper bounds for the number of arithmetic operations necessary for doing harmonic analysis on permutation modules of finite groups. The approach takes advantage of the intrinsic orbital structure of permutation modules, and it uses the multiplicities of irreducible submodules within individual orbital spaces to express […]

Epidemiological models for Ebola exploring different dynamics

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

In today's environment of universal connection and media updates, we are constantly informed about infectious diseases and the ramifications. We can combat infectious diseases using mathematics to gain insight into diseases dynamics and outbreaks. I will focus primarily on Ebola Virus Disease, exploring different models focused on capturing various dynamics. First, I will present a […]
