We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Rhea Palak Bakshi (University of California Santa Barbara) Title: The skein module of the connected sum of two […]
We will conclude the CCMS Fall Colloquium Series with a Pre-Colloquium Reception followed by a talk (details below). Pre-Colloquium Reception will begin at 3:30pm with foods and drink in the […]
This GEMS session will be facilitated by Professor Lenny Fukshansky from Claremont McKenna College. Title: From Knapsacks and Changing Coins to Geometry Abstract: Suppose you have a bag that can hold a […]
Speaker: Daniel Zaharopol, Founder of Bridge to Enter Advanced Mathematics (BEAM), (AoPSI) The Art of Problem Solving Initiative, Inc. Title: Math as the Gateway for STEM Achievement and Access: The […]
This GEMS session will be facilitated by Professor Qidi Peng and William Wu from Claremont Graduate University. Title: The Beauty of Fractal Geometry Abstract: We will introduce fractal geometries, which are described in continuous but nowhere differential functions. We will tell the students where to find these geometries in the nature and how to describe them using […]
Quandles are algebraic structures encoding the motion of knots through space. Quandle cocycle quivers categorify the quandle cocycle invariant. In this talk we will define a quiver representation associated to […]
Speaker: Hrushikesh Mhaskar, Distinguished Research Professor of Mathematics, Claremont Graduate University Title: Local Analysis Of Global Data Abstract: For a periodic integrable function f, the definition of Fourier coefficients requires […]
Let K be a compact convex set in the Euclidean space R^n. How many lights are needed to illuminate its boundary? A classical conjecture of Boltyanskii (1960) asserts that 2^n […]
Speaker: Nabil Fadai, Professor of Mathematical Biology, University of Nottingham Title: Stochastic Agent-Based Models in Mathematical Biology Abstract: In the last decade, there has been a movement to describe biological […]
This one-day workshop assembles diverse perspectives from the history and philosophy of mathematics to examine ways in which mathematics is applied and impure. Topics will range from applications of mathematics in the natural and social sciences to impure proofs that transcend a single mathematical domain. Please RSVP here by Monday, February 10th to attend the […]
Title: Renormalization and wild attractors for Fibonacci maps Abstract: A Fibonacci map is a piecewise defined map of a subset of an interval I onto I with a unique critical […]
Following Kalashnikov, we recover Givental’s small J function for CP^1 by viewing it as a quiver flag variety.
