Voting on relations using pairs information (Michael Orrison, HMC)
Many aggregation problems ask us to turn individual judgments into a single collective outcome. In this talk, we model each voter’s input as a relation on a set of alternatives, […]

Unraveling Hidden Patterns with Topological Data Analysis (Dr. Elena Wang, University of Fribourg, Switzerland)
Estella 2099, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesTopology, akin to geometry, delves into the study of the shapes and structures of mathematical spaces, ranging from simple surfaces to intricate collections of functions and objects. In recent years, […]

Field extensions built from dynamical systems, ramification, and Julia sets (Michelle Manes, American Institute of Mathematics)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesGiven a polynomial defined over a field $K$, you can build an extension of $K_\infty / K$ by adjoining inverse images of some point $\alpha \in K$. The behavior of […]

Adaptive Experimental Design using Shrinkage Estimators (Evan Rosenman, Claremont McKenna College)
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesIn multi-armed trials, adaptive designs are a popular way to increase estimation efficiency or identify optimal treatments. Many recent papers have proposed adaptive methods for minimizing the error of unbiased […]

Kloosterman sums and Bessel functions (Robert Cass, CMC)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesKloosterman sums are explicit exponential sums which occur in several contexts in number theory and arithmetic geometry. Bessel functions encode a great deal of representation-theoretic information about finite groups of […]

Edge Ideals via Independence Polynomials of Graphs — Dalena Vien (Bryn Mawr)
Burkle 16, Claremont Graduate University 1021 N. Dartmouth Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesAbstract: Edge ideals of graphs provide a fertile ground for uncovering combinatorial expressions for algebraic invariants of squarefree monomial ideals. Many algebraic invariants of these edge ideals directly reflect combinatorial properties of their underlying graphs. In this talk, I will discuss how the independence polynomial P_G(x), the generating function for independent sets of a graph G, […]

Number Theory meets Differential Equations: Using Homotopy Continuation to Compute Shabat Polynomials
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesA Belyĭ pair \bigl( S,\, z(w) \bigr) is a compact, connected Riemann surface S together with a rational function z \colon S \to \mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C}) which has at most three critical values […]

Hilbert basis for conical semigroups and indecomposable elements (Lenny Fukshansky, CMC)
Estella 1021 (Emmy Noether Room), Pomona College Claremont, CA, United StatesThe unique minimal generating set for a semigroup of lattice points in an n-dimensional polyhedral cone is called its Hilbert basis. In the case when the cone is spanned by […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Sam Nelson (CMC)
Speaker: Sam Nelson (CMC) Title: Permutation Jones Polynomials Abstract: The Jones Polynomial is an important invariant of knots with applications in physics, quantum computation and more. In this talk I will introduce a family of generalizations of the Jones polynomial associated to permutations of finite sets and discuss their properties. _______ We especially welcome all […]
