Do you like to talk about teaching? Do you like to socialize with other people in the department? Do you like pear bread? Do you have nothing better to do on a Friday afternoon? Bring your thoughts: Have you done …
PDE Problems in Thin Filament Hydrodynamics Prof. Laurel Ohm Assistant Professor of Mathematics University of Wisconsin-Madison Many fundamental biophysical processes, from cell division to cellular motility, involve dynamics of thin structures immersed in a very viscous fluid. Various popular models …
Introduction to (Partial) Z-Boundaries Joe Paulson PhD Graduate Student University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee In this talk, I'll share an abridged story of Z-boundaries and their utility in group theory. Throughout, we'll revisit some main characters (compactifications, homotopy groups, group …
Ion Channels, the Ultimate Multiscale Device Prof. Bob Eisenberg Professor of Biomathematics and Physiology Department of Physiology & Biophysics, Rush University, Chicago IL Proteins called ion channels are the ultimate multiscale device, the ‘nanovalves of life’ controlling most biological functions …
Kohnert Properties of Northeast Diagrams Alexander Moon Graduate Student University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Kohnert polynomials and posets are combinatorial objects with deep representation theoretic meaning, generalizing both Schubert polynomials and Demazure characters, i.e., key polynomials. In this talk I …
(t,r) Broadcast Domination of the Truncated Square Tiling Graph Jillian Cervantes Graduate Student University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee This talk will introduce graph domination theory and a generalization called (t,r) broadcast domination. We study a family of graphs that arise …
Parabolic System of Aggregation Formation in Bacterial Colonies Dr. Zhaosheng Feng Endowed Chair Professor of Mathematics University of Texas Rio Grande Valley The goal of this talk is to study a fourth-order nonlinear parabolic system with dispersion for describing bacterial …
Combinatorial Models for Some Generalized McMullen Maps in the Case of Two Bounded Critical Orbits Kelsey Brouwer PhD Student University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee The family of generalized McMullen maps R(z)= z^n + b + a/z^n has two independent critical …
Baby Mandelbrot Sets for Maximally Generalized McMullen Maps Dr. Daniel Stoertz Visiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics St. Olaf College In Complex Dynamics, we study the iteration of holomorphic or meromorphic functions on the complex plane or the Riemann sphere. Of …
International Conference on Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Populations in Biological Systems The broad, general theme of the conference is the formulation, validation, analysis and simulation of mathematical models for the spatiotemporal dynamics of biological populations. A special emphasis …
