Abstract: The system of shallow water equations and related models are widely used in oceanography to model hazardous phenomena such as tsunamis and storm surges. Unfortunately, the inherent uncertainties in the system will inevitably damage the credibility of decision-making based on the deterministic model. The stochastic Galerkin (SG) method seeks a solution by applying the […] |

Title: An ideal convergence: an example in noncommutative metric geometry Abstract: The ability to calculate the distance between sets (rather than just distance between points) has found applications in geometry and group theory as well as various branches of applied mathematics. The Hausdorff distance and the Gromov-Hausdorff distance are standard distances used in these applications. […] |

Title: How do zebrafish get their stripes — or spots? Abstract: Many natural and social systems involve individual agents coming together to create group dynamics, whether the agents are drivers in a traffic jam, voters in an election, or locusts in a swarm. Self-organization also occurs at much smaller scales in biology, though, and here […] |

In this talk, we present reduced order models (ROMs) for turbulent flows, which are constructed by using ideas from large eddy simulation (LES) and variational multiscale (VMS) methods. First, we give a general introduction to reduced order modeling and emphasize the connection to classical Galerkin methods (e.g., the finite element method) and the central role […] |

Title: Groups, Graphs and Trees Abstract: What do we mean by the geometry of a group? Groups seem like very abstract objects when we first study them, and it's natural to ask whether we can visualize them in some way. Given a group with a finite set of generators and relators, I will describe a […] |

Abstract: Classification is a fundamental task in data science and machine learning, and in the past ten years there have been significant improvements on classification tasks (e.g. via deep learning). However, recently there have been a number of works demonstrating that these improved algorithms can be "fooled" using specially constructed adversarial examples. In turn, there […] |

Title: Trace Ideals and Endomorphism Rings Abstract: In many branches of mathematics, the full set of "functions" between two objects exhibits remarkable structure; it often forms a group and in some special cases it forms a ring. In this talk, we will discuss this phenomenon in Commutative Algebra. In particular, we will talk about the […] |

Abstract: This talk discusses multiple methods for clustering high-dimensional data, and explores the delicate balance between utilizing data density and data geometry. I will first present path-based spectral clustering, a novel approach which combines a density-based metric with graph-based clustering. This density-based path metric allows for fast algorithms and strong theoretical guarantees when clusters concentrate […] |

Title: Puzzling Permutations Abstract: Permutations are one of the most fundamental notions in mathematics. In this talk, we will discuss a visual representation of permutations and introduce some games one can play to help "see" different properties. These puzzling games can be used to provide insight into deeper mathematical content as well. Time permitting, we […] |
