Counting matrix points via lattice zeta functions (Yifeng Huang, USC)
Counting matrix points via lattice zeta functions (Yifeng Huang, USC)
I will introduce two general problems and explain how they surprisingly connect with each other and with other aspects of mathematics (for a glimpse, Sato—Tate, hypergeometric functions, moduli spaces of sheaves, Catalan numbers, Hall polynomials, etc.). The first problem is to count finite-field points on so called "varieties of matrix points''. They are created from […]

What Happens when Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? (Anne Cawley, Cal Poly Pomona)
Speaker: Anne Cawley, Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics, Cal Poly Pomona, CA Title: What Happens When Our Perspectives Don’t Align with the Math? Abstract: Many people often share that they like math because there is “one right answer” and is an objective field. Once they find the answer, they are done with a problem. […]

Analysis Seminar: Domains of Quantum Metrics on AF algebras (Katrine von Bornemann Hjelmborg, University of Southern Denmark (SDU))
Title: Domains of Quantum Metrics on AF algebras Abstract: Given a compact quantum metric space (A, L), we prove that the domain of L coincides with A if and only if A is finite-dimensional. Intuitively, this should allow for different quantum metrics with distinct domains when A is infinite-dimensional, and we show how to explicitly […]
