Given a homogeneous multilinear polynomial F(x) in n variables with integer coefficients, we obtain some sufficient conditions for it to represent all the integers. Further, we derive effective results, establishing […]
In this talk we will survey recent developments in the use of ternary algebraic structures known as Niebrzydowski Tribrackets in defining invariants of knots, with some perhaps surprising applications.
In this talk we introduce a new modification of the Jacobi-Perron algorithm in the three dimensional case. This algorithm is periodic for the case of totally-real conjugate cubic vectors. To […]
Title: Topic Models, Methods, and Medicine Speaker: Prof. Jamie Haddock (Harvey Mudd College) Abstract: There is currently an unprecedented demand for efficient, quantitative, and interpretable methods to study large-scale (often […]
Title: Eigenvector Methods for Community Detection in Hypergraphs Abstract: Hypergraphs are generalizations of graphs in which edges are allowed to contain arbitrary numbers of nodes. Hypergraphs are well-suited for modeling […]
When first learning how to write mathematical proofs, it is often easier for students to work with statements using the universal quantifier. Results that single out special cases might initially […]
Sam Nelson will wow us with his maths.
Title: Quantitative Approaches to Social Justice Prof. Chad Topaz (he/him/his) Co-Founder and Executive Director of Research, QSIDE Institute Professor of Mathematics, Williams College Abstract: Civil rights leader, educator, and investigative […]
Title: Mixing and Pumping on the Microscale Abstract: Mixing and pumping in microfluidics devices is difficult because the traditional methods of mixing and pumping at large length scales don’t work […]
The Kauffman bracket skein algebra was originally defined as a generalization of the Jones polynomial for knots and links on a surface and is one of the few quantum invariants […]
Robert Bowden will tell us fantastic things he did at PSU.
