  • GEMS February 10th Session

    Harvey Mudd College at the Shanahan Teaching and Learning Center 301 Platt Blvd., Claremont, CA, United States

  • Dagan Karp (Harvey Mudd College)

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

    Title: Tropical Linear Series Abstract: In this talk I'll attempt to give a friendly and example-driven introduction to the theory of linear series on tropical curves. While in some respects mirroring […]

  • Quiver categorification of quandle invariants (Sam Nelson, CMC)

    Estella 2099

    Quiver structures are naturally associated to subsets of the endomorphism sets of quandles and other knot-coloring structures, providing a natural form of categorification of homset invariants and their enhancements. In […]

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Title: Mirror Symmetry and Zeta Values Speaker: Sheel Ganatra, University of Southern California Abstract: Mirror symmetry is a conjectural correspondence, born out of ideas in string theory, between two geometries of […]

  • Cristian Lopez Morales (UNAL)

    Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

  • Point-counting and topology of algebraic varieties (Siddarth Kannan, UCLA)

    Estella 2099

    A projective algebraic variety X is the zero locus of a collection of homogeneous polynomials, in projective space. When the polynomials have integer coefficients, we can think of the k-valued points X(k) of the variety, for any field k. Now suppose we have two different fields k and k'. How does the behavior of X(k) […]

  • Claremont Topology Seminar: Puttipong Pongtanapaisan (Arizona State university)

    Estella 2099

    We welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Puttipong Pongtanapaisan (Arizona State University) Title: Building Knotted Objects Efficiently Abstract: Knotted objects can be constructed by gluing together standard pieces called handles. Understanding the minimum number of handles required for construction and their sequential attachment provides valuable insights into the complexity of entanglement. […]

  • Evolution of an Intriguing Recreational Math Problem (Shawn McMurran, California State University San Bernardino)

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    Title: Evolution of an Intriguing Recreational Math Problem Speaker: Shawn McMurran, California State University San Bernardino Abstract: Besides being popular and entertaining, recreational mathematics problems are often of historical interest. In this presentation we will highlight the origin and evolution of one such simply stated yet deep problem. The problem emerged during the eighteenth century […]

  • 14th WiMSoCal Symposium at Pomona

    Argue Auditorium, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United States

    The 14th Symposium for Women and Gender Minorities in Mathematics in Southern California WiMSoCal returns to SoCal after a four-year-hiatus due to pandemic. The symposium will provide an opportunity for women and gender-nonconforming individuals in mathematics in the Southern California area to get to know each other on a personal as well as professional level.  […]
