Irena Swanson, Purdue University Date: Thursday, February 23, 10:30 am. Abstract Primary decompositions are a basic tool in commutative algebra, but they also arise in other contexts. In this talk I will discuss some connections with algebraic geometry, partial differential equations, algebraic statistics, and computational complexity. Determinants of n x n matrices can be computed…
DetailsAyman Badawi, American University of Sharjah Date: Friday, February 24, 11:00 am. Abstract Let R be a commutative ring with 1 ≠ 0, and I be a proper ideal of R. Then I is called a 2-absorbing ideal of R if whenever abc ∈ I for some a, b, c ∈ R, then ab ∈…

DetailsDr. Hortensia Soto – December 8, 2022, online Abstract Embodied cognition is a philosophy that claims that learning is body‐based. One might ask how that has anything to do with teaching and learning mathematics. In this talk, I will illustrate ways in which this lens can facilitate learning. I argue that most faculty probably already…
DetailsDr. Matthew Junge – December 6, 2022 – 10:30 am – FB Abstract In the late 20th century, statistical physicists introduced a chemical reaction model called ballistic annihilation. Particles are placed randomly throughout the real line and then proceed to move at random velocities. Collisions result in mutual annihilation. Many results were inferred by physicists,…

DetailsDr. Deepam Patel – Noviembre 22 de 2022 – 10:30 am Abstract The Hodge conjecture is one of the central problems in Algebraic Geometry. The first part of this talk will serve as a general introduction to the Hodge conjecture. The conjecture says roughly that certain cohomology classes as `algebraic’ in the setting of smooth…
DetailsDr. Maurice Rojas – Noviembre 10 de 2022 – 10:30 am Abstract Poconomios, en caso especial, son polinomios con pocos términos monomiales (también conocidos como polinomios ralos). El filósofo René Descartes, en 1637, era el primero en descubrir que polinomios ralos en una variable tienen pocas raíces reales. Askold Khovanski y Konstantin Sevastyanov, después en…
