Discrete Calculus through generating functions (Wai Yan Pong, Cal State Dominguez Hills)
Discrete Calculus studies discrete structures, such as sequences and graphs, using techniques similar to those used in Calculus for continuous functions. The basic idea of generating functions is to associate a function with a sequence so that the coefficients of the power series expansion of the function represent the terms of the sequence. They provide […]

Sequential: A Meditation on Recurrence (Prof. Ghassan Sarkis, Pomona College)
Title: Sequential: A Meditation on Recurrence Speaker: Ghassan Sarkis, Department of Mathematics, Pomona College Abstract: Though I will share some adventures in sequence-generating neural networks just for fun, the majority of this talk will be concerned with Fibonacci sequences modulo $p$ and $p^2$ from data-inflected and number-theoretic perspectives, including questions about periods of the modular […]
