  • Analysis seminar: Gerald Beer (CSULA)

    Estella 2393, Pomona College 610 N. College Ave., Claremont, United States

    Title: A crash course in Bornologies Abstract: By a bornology on a nonempty set X, we mean a family of subsets that contains the singletons, that is stable under finite […]

  • Presentations of derived categories (Reginald Anderson, CMC)

    Estella 2099

    A modification of the cellular resolution of the diagonal given by Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels gives a virtual resolution of the diagonal for smooth projective toric varieties and toric Deligne-Mumford stacks which are […]

  • A polyhedral view of refined q-t Catalan numbers (Max Hlavacek, Pomona College)

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

    Title: A polyhedral view of refined q-t Catalan numbers Speaker: Max Hlavacek Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Statistics department, Pomona College, Claremont Abstract: Many problems in algebraic combinatorics have geometric objects lurking in […]

  • Applied Math Seminar: Sarah Marzen (Department of Natural Science)

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

    Title: How well do neurons, humans, and artificial neural networks predict? Abstract: Sensory prediction is thought to be vital to organisms, but few studies have tested how well organisms and parts of organisms efficiently predict their sensory input in an information-theoretic sense.  In this talk, we report results on how well cultured neurons ("brain in […]

  • Adinkras as Origami? (Edray Goins, Pomona College)

    Estella 2113

    Around 20 years ago, physicists Michael Faux and Jim Gates invented Adinkras as a way to better understand Supersymmetry.  These are bipartite graphs whose vertices represent bosons and fermions and whose edges represent operators which relate the particles.  Recently, Charles Doran, Kevin Iga, Jordan Kostiuk, Greg Landweber and Stefan M\'{e}ndez-Diez determined that Adinkras are a […]

  • Claremont Topology Seminar: Reginald Anderson (CMC)

    Estella 2099

    We welcome all undergraduate/graduate students and faculty to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Reginald Anderson (CMC) Title: Presentations of derived categories Abstract: A modification of the cellular resolution of the diagonal given by Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels gives a virtual resolution of the diagonal for smooth projective toric varieties and toric Deligne-Mumford stacks which are a global quotient of […]

  • Analysis seminar: Stephan Ramon Garcia (Pomona College)

    Estella 2131, Pomona College 610 N College Ave, Claremont, United States

    Title: What can chicken McNuggets tell us about symmetric functions, positive polynomials, random norms, and AF algebras? Abstract: Numerical semigroups are combinatorial objects that lead to deep and subtle questions. With tools from complex, harmonic, and functional analysis, probability theory, algebraic combinatorics, and computer-aided design, we answer virtually all asymptotic questions about factorization lengths in […]

  • GEMS October 5th Session

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

    Title:  How to use coins to make a 7-sided die Abstract:  Certain dice are easier to make than others.  There is the standard 6-sided die, but 4-sided, 8-sided, 10-sided, 12-sided, […]
