  • The Fell topology and the modular Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity (Jiahui Yu, Pomona College)

    Roberts North 105, CMC 320 E. 9th St., Claremont, CA, United States

    Given a unital AF (approximately finite-dimensional) algebra A equipped with a faithful tracial state, we equip each (norm-closed two-sided) ideal of A with a metrized quantum vector bundle structure, when canonically viewed as a module over A, in the sense of Latrémolière using previous work of Aguilar and Latrémolière. Moreover, we show that convergence of […]

  • Robust properties of graphs (Asaf Ferber, UC Irvine)

    Davidson Lecture Hall, CMC 340 E 9th St, Claremont, CA, United States

    In this talk we will consider some notions of `robustness' of graph/hypergraph properties. We will survey some existing results and will try to emphasize the following new result (joint with […]

  • How Many Cards Can Avoid a SET? (Prof. Mohamed Omar, Harvey Mudd College)

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

    Title: How Many Cards Can Avoid a SET? Speaker: Mohamed Omar, Department of Mathematics, Harvey Mudd College Abstract: SET is a popular real-time card game where players search for special triples of cards among a table of cards that are face-up. A common issue when playing the game is not having a SET among theface-up cards. What is […]

  • The Hilbert space approach in the theory of differential equations (Adolfo Rumbos, Pomona College)

    Roberts North 105, CMC 320 E. 9th St., Claremont, CA, United States

    In this talk we discuss the Hilbert space approach, or the variational approach, in the study of questions of existence and multiplicity for some two-point boundary-value problems for nonlinear, second order, ordinary differential equations (ODEs).  We illustrate the use of the Hilbert space approach in obtaining some old existence results for periodic solutions of a […]
