Public key quantum money is a replacement for paper money which has cryptographic guarantees against counterfeiting. We propose a new idea for public key quantum money. In the abstract sense, our bills are encoded as a joint eigenstate of a fixed system of commuting unitary operators. We show that the proposal is secure against black […]

The Claremont Center for the Mathematical Sciences (CCMS) Math Colloquium series begins with a student research poster session, showcasing the mathematical work of all students at the Claremont Colleges. Please join us on Wednesday, September 6th, in the Estella Courtyard at Pomona College to see the wealth of research projects that Claremont math students have […] |

A numerical semigroup is a subset S of the natural numbers that is closed under addition. One of the primary attributes of interest in commutative algebra are the relations (or trades) between the generators of S; any particular choice of minimal trades is called a minimal presentation of S (this is equivalent to choosing a […]

Title: Chebyshev Threadings in Skein Algebras for Punctured Surfaces Abstract: Skein algebras are algebras of links in a surface quotiented by diagram-based equivalence relations based on the Kauffman bracket. In the case of surfaces with punctures, the skein algebra is generated by links as well as arcs between the punctures, and there are additional skein […] |

Title: Diving into Math with Emmy Noether Starring: Anita Zieher; Director: Sandra Schueddekopf Abstract: A theatre performance by Portraittheater Vienna in co-operation with Freie Universität Berlin about the life of one of history's most influential mathematicians. Based on historical documents and events, the script was written by Sandra Schüddekopf and Anita Zieher in cooperation with […] |

"The Sceptical Mathematician: How John Wallis Saved Mathematics for the Royal Society." Abstract: The members of the “Invisible College” and the early Royal Society championed an experimental approach to the study of nature as the proper path to the advancement of knowledge and the preservation of civic peace. Mathematics, while admired, was also viewed with suspicion, […]

Title: Towards Understanding the Success of First Order Methods in Training Mildly Overparameterized Networks Abstract: For most problems of interest the loss landscape of a neural network is non-convex and contains a plethora of spurious critical points. Despite this first order methods such as SGD and Adam are in practice remarkably successful at finding optimal, […] |

Biquandle brackets are skein invariants of biquandle-colored knots, with skein coefficients that are functions of the colors at a crossing. Biquandle power brackets take this idea a step further with state component values that also depend on biquandle colors. This is joint work with Neslihan Gügümcü (IYTE).

Title: Cellular resolutions of the diagonal and exceptional collections for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks Abstract: Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space which yields a strong, full exceptional collection of line bundles. Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels generalized Beilinson's result to a cellular resolution of the diagonal for what they called "unimodular" toric varieties (a more restrictive […] |

Title: p-Norm Approval Voting Speaker: Michael Orrison, Professor of Mathematics, Harvey Mudd College Abstract: Approval voting is a relatively simple voting procedure: Given a set of candidates, each voter chooses a subset of the candidates, and the candidate chosen the most is then declared the winner. Interestingly, approval voting can be viewed as an extreme […] |

A classic problem in graph theory is to find the chromatic number of a given graph: that is, to find the smallest number of colors needed to assign every vertex a color such that whenever two vertices are adjacent, they receive different colors. This problem has been studied for many families of graphs, including cube-like […]

Title: Cellular resolutions of the diagonal and exceptional collections for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks (Continued) Abstract: Beilinson gave a resolution of the diagonal for complex projective space which yields a strong, full exceptional collection of line bundles. Bayer-Popescu-Sturmfels generalized Beilinson's result to a cellular resolution of the diagonal for what they called "unimodular" toric varieties (a more […] |

Title: Building the Fan of a Toric Variety Speaker: Reginald Anderson, Department of Mathematical Sciences, Claremont McKenna College Abstract: Roughly speaking, algebraic geometry studies the zero sets of polynomials, which lead to objects called varieties. Since the zero sets of polynomials do not always pass the vertical line test, we enlist other methods to study […] |
