Skein modules were introduced by Jozef H. Przytycki as generalisations of the Jones and HOMFLYPT polynomial link invariants in the 3-sphere to arbitrary 3-manifolds. The Kauffman bracket skein module (KBSM) […] |

Title: Viscoelastic Effects of Spontaneous Oscillations of Elastic Filaments in the Follower-Force Problem. Abstract: It is well know that microorganisms, such as bacteria and eukaryotes, often move in intricate environments experiencing mechano-chemical dynamics. These environments consist of rheologically complex substances such as mucus and other biofilms that are more complicated than water. Spermatozoa (sperm), for […] |

In 1932, Tarski conjectured that a convex body of width 1 can be covered by planks, regions between two parallel hyperplanes, only if the total width of planks is at […] |

In this talk we link discrete Markov spectrum to geometry of continued fractions. As a result of that we get a natural generalization of classical Markov tree which leads to an efficient computation of Markov minima for all elements in generalized Markov trees.

Convex real projective structures generalize hyperbolic structures in a rich way. We will discuss a class of manifolds introduced by Cooper Long and Tillmann, which include finite-volume cusped hyperbolic manifolds and other manifolds with well-controlled ends. These manifolds have nice deformation theoretic properties, and we will conclude with an existence theorem for novel structures on […] |

Title: Geometry of continued fractions Speaker: Oleg Karpenkov, Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Liverpool Abstract: In this talk we introduce a geometrical model of continued fractions and discuss its appearance in rather different research areas: -- values of quadratic forms (Perron Identity for Markov spectrum) -- the 2nd Kepler law on planetary motion -- Global relation […] |

I will explain how to apply presentations of algebras (together with some classical results from non-commutative algebra) to obtain some 5 polynomial invariants telling us when two pairs of 2x2 […] |

Title: Data science and applications in dynamic topic modeling Abstract: The shockwaves of the big data boom have thrown into sharp relief the critical need for domain-driven, large-scale data analytic techniques across the fields of, among others, finance, political science, economics, psychology, and medicine. It is not simply the size of data sets that contributes […] |

As $\lambda$ runs through all integer partitions, the set of Schur functions $\{s_{\lambda}\}_\lambda$ forms a basis in the ring of symmetric functions. Hence the rule $$s_{\lambda}s_{\mu}=\sum c_{\lambda,\mu}^{\gamma} s_{\gamma}$$ makes sense […] |

Title: Contact topology and geometry in high dimensions Speaker: Bahar Acu, Department of Mathematics, Pitzer College Abstract: A very useful strategy in studying topological manifolds is to factor them into ``smaller" […] |
