This is the continuation of the semester's joint seminar with the Universidad Nacional de Colombia-Manizales. Title: Enumerating linearity regions of max-pooling layers in convolutional neural networks Abstract: Convolutional neural networks (CNN's) are central tools in the application of machine learning to text, audio and image processing. Their success stems from the ability of these networks to […]

For a finite field F_q, a subset of F_q^N is a Kakeya set if it contains a line in every direction (i.e., a coset of every one-dimensional linear subspace). The finite […] |

Title: Graphical Anomaly Detection for High Dimensional and Object Data Abstract: Anomaly detection is an important task in data analysis, though an agreed upon definition of what constitutes an outlier does not exist. Accordingly, a graphical tool that can highlight interesting observations in a data set that the scientist can then investigate with domain specific […] |

Though mirror symmetry requires much technical background, it gained traction in the mathematical community when physicists Candelas-de la Ossa-Green-Parkes discovered enumerative invariants counting the number of rational degree d curves […]

We welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Adam Yassine (Pomona College) Title: A Structural Approach to Classical Mechanics Abstract: A structural approach to the study of classical mechanics clarifies the physical heuristics that physicists use in constructing mathematical models of classical mechanical systems. The focus of our current program is to develop […] |

There is a rich connection between homogeneous dynamics and number theory. Often in such applications it is desirable for dynamical results to be effective (i.e. the rates of convergence for […]

This talk has been cancelled. We welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Iris Yoon (Wesleyan College) Title: A generalized Dowker complex for multi-way Relations Abstract: Given a relation between two sets X and Y, one can construct two simplicial complexes, one having X as its vertex set and the other […] |

Title: Can a function tell us how immune cells kill? Speaker: Prof. Ami Radunskaya (Pomona College, Claremont CA) Abstract: The immune system is able to fight cancer by mustering and training an army of effector “killer” cells. Mathematical models of tumor-immune interactions must describe the proliferation, recruiting and killing rates of immune cells. Earlier work surprisingly showed that […] |

How many sublattices of Zn have index at most X? If we choose such a lattice L at random, what is the probability that Zn/L is cyclic? What is the probability that its […]

Title: Developments in Noncommutative Fractal Geometry Abstract: As a noncommutative fractal geometer, I look for new expressions of the geometry of a fractal through the lens of noncommutative geometry. At the quantum scale, the wave function of a particle, but not its path in space, can be studied. Riemannian methods often rely on smooth paths to encode […] |

Title: The Chronicles of Fractal Geometry: Fractal Strings, and Functorial Harps Abstract: In this talk, we explore the colorful analytical world of fractal geometry. We introduce fractal strings in the sense of Lapidus, both intuitively and by way of rigorous constructions. We examine rich illustrations of higher dimensional fractals and p-adic fractal strings. Then, we […] |
