• Applied Math Seminar: Alejandra Castillo (Pomona College)

    Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Title:    Randomized Kaczmarz Methods for Corrupted Tensor Linear Systems Abstract: Recovering tensor-valued signals from corrupted measurements is a central problem in various applications such as hyperspectral image reconstruction and medical imaging. This talk considers tensor linear systems of the form AX = B, that contain observations potentially affected by sparse, large-magnitude corruptions.  A quantile-based randomized […]

  • The Shooting Method in the Analysis of Two-Point Boundary-Value Problems (Adolfo J. Rumbos, Pomona College)

    Abstract: Two-point boundary-value problems (BVPs) appear frequently in applied mathematics.  When looking for solutions of boundary-value problems for some partial differential equations (PDEs) in mathematical physics, two-point BVPs come up as a result of applying the method of separation of variables, for instance. In the case of linear PDEs, the resulting two-point BVPs fall into […]

  • LA City Council Reform: A Statistical Study of Alternatives (Evan Rosenman & Sarah Cannon, Claremont McKenna College)

    Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Abstract: The 2022 Los Angeles City Council scandal intensified public demand for governance reform, leading to the creation of the Los Angeles Charter Reform Commission. The commission is now considering proposals from civic and academic groups. Major recommendations include: eliminating the automatic election of candidates who win a primary majority, expanding the size of the […]
