A classic problem in graph theory is to find the chromatic number of a given graph: that is, to find the smallest number of colors needed to assign every vertex […]
Title: Cellular resolutions of the diagonal and exceptional collections for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks (Continued) Abstract: Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space which yields a strong, full […]
Title: Building the Fan of a Toric Variety Speaker: Reginald Anderson, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Claremont McKenna College Abstract: Roughly speaking, algebraic geometry studies the zero sets of polynomials, which […]
Title: Understanding SARS-CoV-2 viral rebounds with and without treatments. Abstract: In most instances, the characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 mirror the patterns of an acute infection, with viral load rapidly peaking around […]
Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space, which gives a strong, full exceptional collection of line bundles as a generating set for the derived category of […]
Title: Quantum 4-Manifold Invariants Via Trisections Abstract: I will describe a new family of potentially non-semisimple invariants for compact a 4-manifold whose boundary is equipped with an open book. The […]
Title: Thinking Inside the Box: A combinatorial approach to Schubert Calculus Speaker: Sami H. Assaf, Department of Mathematics, University of Southern California Abstract: Given 2 lines in the plane, how […]
Title: The Hartman-Watson distribution: numerical evaluation and applications in mathematical finance Abstract: The Hartman-Watson distribution appears in several problems of applied probability and financial mathematics. Most notably, it determines the […]
Title: Towers and elementary embeddings in total relatively hyperbolic groups Abstract: In a remarkable series of papers, Zlil Sela classified the first-order theories of free groups and torsion-free hyperbolic groups […]
Title: Equality Cases of Geometric Inequalities Speaker: Igor Pak, Department of Mathematics, University of California, Los Angeles Abstract: Geometric inequalities go back to antiquity, and so do their equality cases. […]
