Combinatorics and representation theory of Temperley-Lieb algebras (Zajj Daugherty, CUNY)
The classical, one-boundary, and two-boundary Temperley-Lieb algebras arise in mathematical physics related to solving certain rectangular lattice models.They also have beautiful presentations as "diagram algebras", meaning that they have basis […]
Topology Seminar: Jesse Levitt (USC)
Title: Understanding Structure in the Single Variable Knot Polynomials Abstract: We examine the dimensionality and internal structure of the aggregated data produced by the Alexander, Jones, and Z0 polynomials using topological data analysis and dimensional reduction […]

October 2, 2019 -Freeways and Circle Packing
Freeways and Circle Packing
The beauty of mathematics is often encountered when one discovers that two apparently very different phenomena actually share a common origin. I will discuss such a surprising connection between two […]

October 4, 2019 -Regime transitions of liquid films flowing down a fiber (Applied Math Talk given by Prof. Claudia Falcon, UCLA)
Regime transitions of liquid films flowing down a fiber (Applied Math Talk given by Prof. Claudia Falcon, UCLA)
Recent experiments of thin films flowing down a vertical fiber with varying nozzle diameters present a wealth of new dynamics that illustrate the need for more advanced theory. Determining the regime […]

October 5, 2019 -GEMS Workshop: Symmetry with Professor Michael Orrison, from Harvey Mudd College
GEMS Workshop: Symmetry with Professor Michael Orrison, from Harvey Mudd College
TOPIC: Symmetry Symmetry seems to be an important idea in mathematics, but how do mathematicians think about symmetry? In this workshop, we’ll talk about mathematical objects called groups, see how […]
