Title: What can chicken McNuggets tell us about symmetric functions, positive polynomials, random norms, and AF algebras? Abstract: Numerical semigroups are combinatorial objects that lead to deep and subtle questions. […]
Title: How to use coins to make a 7-sided die Abstract: Certain dice are easier to make than others. There is the standard 6-sided die, but 4-sided, 8-sided, 10-sided, 12-sided, […]
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 […]
