  • GEMS November 1st Session

    Shanahan B450, Harvey Mudd College 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, United States

    This GEMS session will be facilitated by Grace Akinwande from the Claremont Graduate University. Title: From Pizza to Calculus: Understanding Area Through Approximation Abstract: How much more pizza do you really get from a larger size? In this presentation, we explore the concept of area starting from an everyday question—the pizza dilemma! We’ll review basic […]

  • Elementary probability via bundles (Wai Yan Pong, Cal State Dominguez Hills)

    Estella 2099

    This talk explores elementary probability and statistics through the language of category theory. We introduce a category of Bundles and use it to reinterpret several results typically covered in an introductory course on probability and statistics. This approach naturally reveals the underlying geometric structures common to these results. The talk is accessible to anyone familiar […]

  • A Signal Separation View of Classification (Ryan O’Dowd, CGU)

    Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United States

    Abstract: The problem of classification in machine learning has often been approached in terms of function approximation. In this talk, we propose an alternative approach for classification in arbitrary compact […]

  • Non-vanishing of L-functions over function fields (Alexandra Florea, UC Irvine)

    Estella 2099

    I will talk about some results concerning the non-vanishing of $L$-functions associated to fixed order characters $\ell$ at the central point over functions fields. Quadratic characters have been studied a lot over the years, and very good non-vanishing results are available in this case, due to work of Soundararajan. When focusing on cubic and higher […]
