Boundary Classification in Groups with Isolated Flats Matthew Haulmark University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Student "In 2000 Kapovich and Kleiner proved that if G is a one-ended hyperbolic group that does not split over a two-ended subgroup, then the boundary of... Read More
Extending Enveloping Algebras via Anti-Cocommutative Elements Daniel Yee University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Student "We know that given a connected Hopf algebra H, the universal enveloping algebra U(P(H)) embeds in H as a Hopf subalgebra. Depending on P(H), we show that... Read More
Exponential Integrator Methods for Nonlinear Fractional Reaction-Diffusion Models Olaniyi (Samuel) Iyiola University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Student “Nonlocality and spatial heterogeneity of many practical systems have made fractional differential equations very useful tools in Science and Engineering. However, solving these type... Read More
God's Number in the Simultaneously-Possible Turn Metric Andrew Gould University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Student “In 2010 it was found that God’s number is 20 in the face turn metric. That is, if the Rubik’s cube hasn’t been disassembled, it can... Read More
Numerical Solution of Stochastic Control Problems Using the Finite Element Method Martin Vieten University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Graduate Student “The linear programming approach to stochastic control has provided insight on a wide variety of control problems, including singular control and...
