Title: TBD Abstract: TBD
I will introduce two general problems and explain how they surprisingly connect with each other and with other aspects of mathematics (for a glimpse, Sato—Tate, hypergeometric functions, moduli spaces of […]
Speaker: Anne Cawley, Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, Cal Poly Pomona, CA Title: What Happens When Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? Abstract: Many people often share that […]
Title: Domains of Quantum Metrics on AF algebras Abstract: Given a compact quantum metric space (A, L), we prove that the domain of L coincides with A if and only […]
CCMS Colloquium: “Paths in Mathematics After Undergrad” Panel We will be holding a virtual panel on careers and grad school after a bachelor’s mathematics degree, with a follow-up discussion time […]

Title: Mathematical models studying the effectiveness of control strategies for malaria Abstract: According to the 2023 World Malaria Report: Nearly half the world's population lives in areas at risk of malaria transmission in 85 countries and territories. In 2022, malaria caused an estimated 249 million clinical episodes, and 608,000 deaths. In this talk, we will […]
In the field of commutative algebra, the principal object of study is (unsurprisingly) commutative algebras. A somewhat unintuitive fact is that results about commutative algebras can be gleaned from an associated non-commutative algebra whose generators are very analytic in nature. This object is called the ring of differential operators, often denoted by D. In a sense gives […]
We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Will Hoffer (UC Riverside) Title: Tube Formulae for Fractal Snowflakes Abstract: Fractals like the von Koch snowflake have rough boundaries, often having nowhere defined tangent lines/spaces. However, there is a tool useful for probing the edges of such fractals: tubular neighborhoods. In this […]
Speaker: Jessica Sidman, Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science, Amherst College Title: Frameworks in Motion: Design, Theory, and Fabrication Abstract: What do your umbrella, a folding gate, and a scissor lift have in common? They all involve frameworks made of rigid parts attached at flexible joints and are designed to move with one degree of freedom. […]
In this talk, we explore sequences and their autocorrelation functions. Knowing the autocorrelation function of a sequence is equivalent to knowing the magnitude of its Fourier transform. Resolving the lack of phase information is called the phase problem. We say that two sequences are equicorrelational to mean that they have the same aperiodic autocorrelation function. […]
