Continuous extensions of Ramanujan-expandable arithmetic functions (Matthew Fox, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics and Chai Karamchedu, Sandia National Labs)
We describe a natural way to continuously extend arithmetic functions that admit a Ramanujan expansion and derive the conditions under which such an extension exists. In particular, we show that the absolute convergence of a Ramanujan expansion does not guarantee the convergence of its real variable generalization. We take the divisor function as a case […]
Towards Knot Homology for 3-Manifolds (Aaron Mazel-Gee, California Institute of Technology)
The Jones polynomial is an invariant of knots in R^3. Following a proposal of Witten, it was extended to knots in 3-manifolds by Reshetikhin-Turaev using quantum groups. Khovanov homology is a categorification of the Jones polynomial of a knot in R^3, analogously to how ordinary homology is a categorification of the Euler characteristic of a […]

The 6 Cs – Covid and the 5 Claremont Colleges (Prof. Maryann E. Hohn)
Title: The 6 Cs - Covid and the 5 Claremont Colleges Speaker: Maryann E. Hohn, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Pomona College Abstract: The Claremont Colleges' (5Cs) environment consists of students, faculty, and staff that congregate together in indoor spaces, creating a higher risk for possible COVID-19 infection. Additionally, a majority of the students live on […]
