Building TOWARD Geometry: Truncated Octahedra work as Rhombic Dodecahedra (Peter Kagey, HMC)
Estella 2099In late March, students, staff, and faculty were invited to help collaboratively build a large-scale geometric sculpture on the campus of Harvey Mudd College, demonstrating a relationship between truncated octahedra […]

Primitive elements in number fields and Diophantine avoidance (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
Estella 2099The famous primitive element theorem states that every number field K is of the form Q(a) for some element a in K, called a primitive element. In fact, it is […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Ryan Maguire (Dartmouth College)
Estella 2099We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Ryan Maguire (Dartmouth College) Title: Relative Strengths of Knot Invariants by Experiment Abstract: Four knot polynomials have been well studied by topologists, graph theorists, and algebraists alike: The Alexander, Jones, HOMFLY-PT, and Khovanov polynomials. It is known that the Khovanov polynomial is […]

Structural Ramsey Theory and Logic (Lynn Scow, CSUSB)
Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: Structural Ramsey Theory and Logic Speaker: Lynn Scow, Professor of Mathematics, California State University, San Bernardino Abstract: The connection between Ramsey theory and logic goes back to Frank P. Ramsey's 1929 paper in which he announced his famous Ramsey theorem for finite sequences. This theorem states that for any partition of all sequences of length […]

Clocks, parking garages, and the solvability of the quintic: a friendly introduction to monodromy (Edray Goins, Pomona College)
Estella 2099Imagine the hands on a clock. For every complete the minute hand makes, the seconds hand makes 60, while the hour hand only goes one twelfth of the way. […]

Analysis seminar: Reginald Anderson (CMC)
Estella 2131, Pomona College 610 N College Ave, Claremont, United StatesTitle: Review of differential geometry Abstract: 1. Given the embedding of a sphere of radius rho centered at the origin of \R^3 from spherical coordinates, what is the pullback of the flat metric in \R^3? i.e., what is the "round metric" on the 2-sphere of radius rho? 2. If we impose a complex structure on S^2 via […]

Emer Lopera Arias (HMC)
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: The fractional p-Laplacian operator. Motivation for its definition and related boundary value problems Abstract: Last decades, nonlocal operators, as the fractional Laplacian, have gained to much attention due to its applications to several physical Phenomena. In this talk we aim to motivate the definition of the fractional laplacian operator through a simple but quite […]

Negligible cohomology (Matthew Gherman, Caltech)
Estella 2099For a finite group G, a G-module M, and a field F, an element u in H^d(G,M) is negligible over F if for each field extension L/F and every continuous group homomorphism from Gal(L^{sep}/L) to G, u is in the kernel of the induced homomorphism H^d(G,M) to H^d(L,M). Negligible cohomology was first introduced by Serre […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Elena Wang (Michigan State University)
Estella 2099We welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Elena Wang (Michigan State University) Title: A Distance for Geometric Graphs via the Labeled Merge Tree Interleaving Distance Abstract: Geometric graphs appear in many real-world data sets, such as road networks, sensor networks, and molecules. We investigate the notion of distance between graphs […]
