Analysis seminar: Shanna Dobson (UCR)
Estella 2131, Pomona College 610 N College Ave, Claremont, United StatesTitle: The Chronicles of Fractal Geometry: Fractal Strings, and Functorial Harps Abstract: In this talk, we explore the colorful analytical world of fractal geometry. We introduce fractal strings in the sense of Lapidus, both intuitively and by way of rigorous constructions. We examine rich illustrations of higher dimensional fractals and p-adic fractal strings. Then, we […]

İrma Hacınlıyan (Istanbul Technical University)
Emmy Noether Room, Estella 1021, Pomona College, 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, CA, United StatesTitle: On Nonlinear Schrödinger Type Equations: Wave Modulation and Mathematical Analysis Abstract: The nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation describes the evolution of slowly varying packets of quasi-monochromatic waves in weakly nonlinear dispersive media. The NLS equation with soliton solutions is one of the significant and widely pursued research areas on the nonlinear wave motions. Sub-studies on […]

Claremont Topology Seminar: Joe Breen (University of Iowa)
Estella 2099We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Joe Breen (University of Iowa) Title: Open books in all dimensions Abstract: I will discuss recent work (joint with K. Honda and Y. Huang) on establishing a relationship, first discovered by Giroux, between "contact structures" and "open books". This relationship has been […]
