SUMMARY:Applied Math Talk: Information Theory\, Archetypal Analysis and MT Flu given by Professor Emily Stone (University of Montana-Missoula)
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will discuss a rather unique collection of tools and how they have been used to understand the spread of Influenza virus in the State of Montana.  With flu counts from each county over a 10 year period some patterns emerge\, which explain some vectors of the disease spread.  Archetypal analysis then creates reduced dimension sets\, and the dynamics of the flu spread can be understood by parameterizing SIR models with the reduced data.

SUMMARY:On badly approximable numbers (Nikolai Moshchevitin\, Moscow State University)
DESCRIPTION:It is well known that a real number is badly approximable if and only if the partial quotients in its continued fraction expansion are bounded. Motivated by a recent wonderful paper by Ngoc Ai Van Nguyen\, Anthony Poels and Damien Roy (where the authors give a simple alternative solution of Schmidt-Summerer’s problem) we found an unusual generalization of this criterion for badly approximable d-dimensional vectors.

SUMMARY:Ken Millett (UCSB)
DESCRIPTION:Gordian Knots \nAccording to the legend of Phrygian Gordium\, Alexander the Great cut the “Gordian Knot’’ and eventually went on to rule Asia thereby fulfilling an ancient prophecy.  Where there are several descriptions of the precise nature of the Gordian Knot and Alexander’s action\, an explicit mathematical treatment (the theory of thick knots) and the reasons for its contemporary interest will be discussed.  The first simple example of such a Gordian Knotted Structure supported by a rigorous mathematical analysis will be presented.

SUMMARY:Nano Knot theory\, methods to study tiny knot in nature
DESCRIPTION:Knotting in living organisms is a feature that is visible to the careful observer of biological life.  Since the 1970’s\, with the increasing power of electron microscopes\, scientists have been able to capture images of such structures in living organisms at near atomic levels.  We will explore the mathematics of knotting that has provided tools study these phenomena and\, time permitting\, describe new methods being developed to analyze these spatial structure.
