Factorization theorems of Backward Shifts and Nuclear Maps (Asuman Aksoy, CMC)
Roberts North 105, CMC 320 E. 9th St., Claremont, CA, United StatesThe theory of compact linear operators between Banach spaces has a classical core and is familiar to many. Perhaps lesser known is the factorization of compact maps through a closed […]

Kriz’s theorem via dynamics of linear operators (Yunied Puig de Dios, CMC)
Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United StatesThe existence of a set $A\subset \N_0$ of positive upper Banach density such that $A-A:=\{m-n:m, n\in A, m>n\}$ does not contain a set of the form $S-S$ with $S$ a […]

Continuity Versus Uniform Continuity (Prof. Gerald Beer)
Humanities Auditorium, Scripps College, and Zoom Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: Continuity Versus Uniform Continuity Speaker: Gerald Beer, Department of Mathematics, California State University Abstract: In this talk we discuss the class of metric spaces - called the UC-spaces - whose members have this characteristic property: each continuous function f on X must be uniformly continuous. Gerald Beer, PhD UCLA 1971 won the faculty prize for teaching assistants […]

Arithmetical structures (Luis Garcia Puente, Colorado College)
Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United StatesAn arithmetical structure on a finite, connected graph G without loops is given by an assignment of positive integers to the vertices such that, at each vertex, the integer there […]

An introduction to algebraic statistics (Prof. Luis David Garcia Puente)
Humanities Auditorium, Scripps College, and Zoom Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: An introduction to algebraic statistics Speaker: Luis David Garcia Puente, Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Colorado College Abstract: Algebraic statistics is an interdisciplinary field that uses tools from computational algebra, algebraic geometry, and combinatorics to address problems in statistics and its applications. A guiding principle in this field is that many statistical models of […]

Frobenius-Rieffel norms on matrix algebras (Konrad Aguilar, Pomona)
Roberts North 105, CMC 320 E. 9th St., Claremont, CA, United StatesNoncommutative metric geometry is the study of certain noncommuative algebras in the context of metric geometry. For instance, the Lipschitz constant (which measures the maximum slope obtained by a real-valued […]

Spinning switches on a wreath product (Peter Kagey, HMC)
Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United StatesThis talk discusses a puzzle called “Spinning Switches,” based on a problem popularized by Martin Gardner in his February 1979 column of “Mathematical Games". This puzzle can be generalized to […]

Between Yes and No: making decisions under uncertainty (Prof. Ami Radunskaya)
Humanities Auditorium, Scripps College, and Zoom Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: Between Yes and No: making decisions under uncertainty. Speaker: Ami Radunskaya, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Pomona College Abstract: Often we attempt to answer a question with a “yes” or a “no” by developing predictive models (“Will the small remaining population of axolotls survive outside of their native wetlands?”) or by implementing binary classifiers (“Is this […]
