Multilinear Integral Operators: Classic, Curved, and Discrete Dong Dong University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Graduate Student “Several important integral operators in harmonic analysis will be presented in an organized way. The fundamental question about these operators is the boundedness on... Read More
Exploring Fuzzy Set Theory Sam Nehls University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Graduate Student “In classical set theory, sets are mathematically defined and it's oftentimes straightforward to check if an element is or is not a member of a set. For instance,... Read More
Understanding the 17-gon: The Details of the Compass-and-Straightedge Construction Adam Buck University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Graduate Student “The fact that the 17-gon is constructible by compass and straightedge is common trivia among math enthusiasts. The goal of this talk will... Read More
1-Manifolds Galore! Laurence Siebenmann University of Paris-SUD Professor of Mathematics “I will present a combinatorial classifcation, up to homeomorphism, of all simply connected, separable, non-Hausdorff, 1-dimensional manifolds (possibly with boundary), each having only finitely many singular points. These often occur... Read More
Pick's Theorem and Applications to Restricted Integer Partition Functions Daniel Gulbrandsen University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee PhD Graduate Student “A point in R^n is called an integral point if all of its coordinates are integers. In R^2, Pick's Theorem relates the area... Read More
Automatic, Multiple Assessment Options in Undergraduate Math and Science Education Jonathon Kahl University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Professor of Atmospheric Science “Since 2008, automatic, multiple assessment options have been utilized in selected undergraduate meteorology courses at the University of Wisconsin– Milwaukee. Motivated... Read More
Anomalous Diffusion, Dilation and Erosion in Image Processing Sophia Vorderwuelbecke University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee MS Graduate Student “Even if it might seem like a trip to Hogwarts by taking a train from Platform 9 ¾: There is indeed a way to... Read More
Mathematical Modelling of Protein Oscillations in Bacteria Peter Rashkov Institute of Mathematics and Informatics - Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Associate Professor “Pole-to-pole oscillations of protein concentrations are observed in connection with cell division or movement and mathematical models have been...
