Convolutional sparse representation is an efficient tool for computing sparse representations for entire signals in terms of sums of a set of convolutions with dictionary filters. Unlike representations that are […]
Joint work with Larry Shepp & Philip Ernst In this paper we develop a mathematical model to address an ongoing politico-economic debate between Democrats and Republicans. Democrats in the US […]
The classical Sperner - KKM (Knaster - Kuratowski - Mazurkiewicz) lemma has many applications in combinatorics, algorithms, game theory and mathematical economics. In this talk we consider generalizations of this […]
Abstract: The kissing number problem asks for the maximal number k(n) of equal size nonoverlapping spheres in n-dimensional space that can touch another sphere of the same size. This problem […]
TOPIC: Exploring the fascinating world of prime numbers, Part II The study of patterns in the sequence of prime numbers has fascinated mathematicians for centuries. Are there formulas that generate […]
I will discuss the concept of transfinite ζ-metrics. In some details I will discuss transfinite Apollonian metric in the settings of semi-metric spaces. I will discuss specific examples of domains […]
We begin with a review of the Bateman—Horn conjecture, which sheds light on the intimate relationship between polynomials and prime numbers. In this expository talk, we survey a host of […]
Abstract: Augusta Ada, Countess of Lovelace, is today viewed as the rst person to recognize the power of algorithmic machines and a pioneer in computer programming. Her biographers have often […]
In this talk we will survey recent work on Niebzydowski Tribrackets and Niebrydowski Algebras, algebraic structures related to region colorings the planar complements of knots and trivalent spatial graphs.
The Field Committee Meeting is our chance to socialize with our colleagues and coordinate our course offerings for the coming academic year (2019-2020). Please come to discuss course offerings and […]
Given a space $X$, the configuration space $F(X,n)$ is the space of possible ways to place $n$ points on $X$, so that no two occupy the same position. But what […]
