Title: A common pathway to cancer: oncogenic mutations abolish p53 oscillations. Abstract: The tumor suppressor p53 oscillates in response to DNA double-strand breaks, a behavior that has been suggested to be […]
Given votes for candidates, what is the best way to determine the winner of the election, if some of the votes have been corrupted or miscounted? As we saw in […]
Title: Wallis and Landen: A Tale of two integrals Speaker: Victor Moll, Department of Mathematics, Tulane University Abstract: Victor Moll Abstract I was born in Santiago, Chile during the […]
Using elementary methods from differential equations and analysis we will consider the existence and multiplicity of solutions to semilinear partial differential equations with boundary conditions.
Title: PLSS: A Projected Linear Systems Solver (joint work with Michael Saunders) Abstract: Iteratively solving linear systems has proven to be useful for many large applications. Projection methods use sketching […]
Discrete Calculus studies discrete structures, such as sequences and graphs, using techniques similar to those used in Calculus for continuous functions. The basic idea of generating functions is to associate […]
Title: Sequential: A Meditation on Recurrence Speaker: Ghassan Sarkis, Department of Mathematics, Pomona College Abstract: Though I will share some adventures in sequence-generating neural networks just for fun, the majority […]
Title: Modeling size distributions and collisions in cloud microphysics Abstract: Feedbacks between a warming atmosphere, emission of aerosols, and clouds and precipitation are one of the most difficult aspects for […]
It is elementary and well known that a nonzero polynomial in one variable of degree d with coefficients in a field F has at most d zeros in F. It […]
Title: A Brief History of Calculating Machines Speaker: Yousef Daneshbod, Department of Mathematics, University of La Verne Abstract: Calculating machines are digital or analog devices designed to perform mathematical calculations. These […]
We prove, in this joint work with Maksym Radziwill, a 1978 conjecture of S. Patterson (conditional on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis) concerning the bias of cubic Gauss sums. This explains […]
