A big area in combinatorics over the last several decades has been the study of pattern-avoiding permutations, whose enumeration is exciting and mysterious. Alternating sign matrices (ASMs) are a generalization of permutations whose study in combinatorics has also been exciting and mysterious. In this talk, I will explain some new asymptotic results involving the number […]

We especially welcome all undergraduates and graduate students to attend topology seminar! Speaker: Scott Taylor (Colby College) Title: Genus 1 Bridge Number of Satellite Knots in Lens Spaces Abstract: In the mid-1950s, Horst Schubert introduced two ideas which turned out to have lasting impact in knot theory: satellite knots and bridge number. A Satellite knot […] |

Title: Randomly pivoted Cholesky: Fast, accurate matrix approximation for scientific machine learning Abstract: Low-rank approximation of positive semidefinite matrices is a basic problem in computational mathematics, with many applications to machine learning and scientific computing. Existing approaches for this problem largely fall into two categories: simple, fast, but sometimes inaccurate methods and sophisticated, slower methods […] |

Large Language Models like ChatGPT rely on surprisingly familiar mathematics. This talk will explore how ideas from (linear) algebra, number theory and combinatorics appear — both directly and indirectly — in the structure and behavior of these models. Along the way, we’ll touch on themes like structure, symmetry, and scale, and consider how abstract mathematical […] |

Title: Erlang-Distributed SEIR Epidemical Models Abstract: We examine the effects of different dynamics in epidemiological models, focusing on two key approaches. The first model incorporates reaction-diffusion dynamics, where susceptible individuals avoid areas with high concentrations of infected individuals. The second model divides exposed and infectious individuals into symptomatic and asymptomatic subclasses. Our findings emphasize the […] |

A Jacobian variety is a principally polarized abelian variety (PPAV) associated with a smooth complex algebraic curve. For dimensions less than or equal to 3, every PPAV is either a Jacobian or a product of Jacobians. The Schottky problem concerns dimensions 4 and greater: which PPAVs are Jacobians? The Schottky problem can also be posed […]
