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 […]

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 […] |

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, and 20-sided are also very common. What isn't so common is a 7-sided die. Here Dr. Mark Huber from Claremont McKenna College will talk about […] |

I will introduce two general problems and explain how they surprisingly connect with each other and with other aspects of mathematics (for a glimpse, Sato—Tate, hypergeometric functions, moduli spaces of sheaves, Catalan numbers, Hall polynomials, etc.). The first problem is to count finite-field points on so called "varieties of matrix points''. They are created from […] |

Title: Domains of Quantum Metrics on AF algebras Abstract: Given a compact quantum metric space (A, L), we prove that the domain of L coincides with A if and only if A is finite-dimensional. Intuitively, this should allow for different quantum metrics with distinct domains when A is infinite-dimensional, and we show how to explicitly […] |

In the field of commutative algebra, the principal object of study is (unsurprisingly) commutative algebras. A somewhat unintuitive fact is that results about commutative algebras can be gleaned from an […]

In this talk, we explore sequences and their autocorrelation functions. Knowing the autocorrelation function of a sequence is equivalent to knowing the magnitude of its Fourier transform. Resolving the lack […]

Title: Exceptional Sets for Divergent Fourier Series Abstract: A survey of some old and newer results on divergent Fourier series with some comments on how they relate to undergraduate analysis courses and (time permitting) leading to a brief discussion of an open question on the size of exceptional sets in divergence examples and some progress […] |

This GEMS session will be facilitated by Professor David Bachman from Pitzer College. Title: How does ChatGPT work? Abstract: In 2022 ChatGPT took the world by storm and challenged our ideas of what computers are capable of. However, few people have any sense of how this technology works. Through hands-on activities participants will learn about […] |
