Computing Cloud Dynamics with an Adaptive Monte Carlo Sampling Method Thomas Roessler University of Wisconsin-Milwuakee Graduate Student "Atmospheric models usually have simple parametrizations of subgrid variability that do not include all processes. The model Cloud Layers Unified By Binormals (CLUBB)... Read More
Around a Big Mapping Class Group Juliette Bavard University of Chicago PostDoc "The mapping class group of the plane minus a Cantor set arises naturally in many dynamical contexts. To study this "big mapping class group", we can consider its... Read More
Using Magnus Representations to Study Automorphism Groups of Free Groups for Both the Study of Mapping Class Groups and Galois Theory, it is Useful to have Tools to Study Automorphism Groups of Free Groups. We Will Discuss One Particular Such... Read More
The q-Difference Noether Problem for Complex Reflection Groups and Quantum OGZ Algebras Jonas Hartwig Assistant Professor of Mathematics Iowa State University "For any complex reflection group G=G(m,p,n), we prove that the G-invariants of the division ring of fractions of the... Read More
Implementation of a New Sampling Method in a Global Climate Model Eric Raut Researcher of Mathematics Stony Brook Manhattan "Numerical models of weather and climate need to compute grid-box-averaged rates of physical processes such as microphysics. These averages are computed... Read More
