• A Regularity Criterion for the 3-D Navier-Stokes Equations Based on Finitely Many Observations (Abhishek Balakrishna, USC)

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

    Abstract: This talk presents a regularity criterion for the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations based on finitely many observations of the flow. Motivated by data assimilation, we study a nudging algorithm that incorporates coarse spatial measurements through general interpolation operators. We show that suitable conditions on the observed data guarantee global regularity of the associated system and […]

  • Analysis Seminar: Metrics on quantum channels from noncommutative geometry (Tron Omland, University of Oslo and Norwegian National Security Authority)

    Estella 2099, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Abstract: We study metrics on completely positive maps, and in particular on quantum channels, induced by seminorms from noncommutative geometry. Using an infinite-dimensional analogue of the Choi–Jamiołkowski correspondence, we construct […]

  • The Euler Equations in Function Spaces of Generalized Smoothness (Zachary Radke, OSU)

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

    Abstract: In this talk, we will describe a well/ill-posedness result for the 2D incompressible Euler equations. We investigate solutions in a setting logarithmically smoother than previously done, in a hope to identify the key dynamics leading to a breakdown of regularity in 2D fluid flow. When order of the logarithmic derivative is sufficiently large one […]

  • Central moments of autocorrelation demerit factors of binary sequences (Daniel Katz, CSUN)

    Estella 2099

    A low autocorrelation binary sequence of length $\ell$ is an $\ell$-tuple of $+1$s and $-1$s that does not strongly resemble any translate of itself.  Such sequences are used in communications and remote sensing for synchronization and ranging, where translation represents time delay.  A single number that indicates how good a sequence is for such purposes, […]

    CCMS Colloquium invites you to a talk by Puttipong Pongtanapaisan (Pitzer) Title:  Derivatives and the Shape of Graphs Abstract:  Reading the title of this talk, perhaps you think you are […]

  • GEMS April 4th Session

    Shanahan 1480, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

    This GEMS session will be facilitated by Evan Rosenman from Claremont McKenna College Title: Fair Votes? The Mathematics of Elections and Redistricting Abstract: How do we know if an election is fair? In this interactive session, we’ll explore how math helps us answer that question. Students will experiment with drawing voting districts to see how drawing different […]

  • Tropical linear series and matroids (Dagan Karp, HMC)

    Estella 2099

    In this talk, I'll attempt to give a friendly introduction to tropical linear series and explore their relationship to matroid theory. Along the way, we'll stop to admire the beautiful view from enumerative geometry and combinatorics. This is joint work with Chih-Wei Chang, Matthew Dupraz, Hernan Iriarte, David Jensen, Sam Payne, and Jidong Wang, and also with […]
