SUMMARY:PhD Dissertation Defense: Mr. Russell Latterman
DESCRIPTION:Bayesian Change Point Detection In Segmented Multi-Group Autoregressive Moving-Average Data For The Study Of COVID-19 In Wisconsin\nMr. Russell Latterman\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nChangepoint detection involves the discovery of abrupt fluctuations in population dynamics over time. We take a Bayesian approach to estimating points in time at which the parameters of an autoregressive moving average (ARMA) change\, applying a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. We specifically assume that data may originate from one of two groups. We provide estimates of all multi-group parameters of a model of this form for both simulated and real-world data sets. We include a provision to resolve the problem of confounding ARMA parameter estimates and variance of segment data. We apply our model to identify events that may have contributed to the 2020 and 2021 outbreaks of COVID-19 in Waukesha County\, Wisconsin. \nAdvisor: Prof. David Spade \nCommittee Members:\nProfs.

SUMMARY:MS Thesis Defense: Mr. Lucas Fellmeth
DESCRIPTION:Utilizing ARMA Models for Non-Independent Replications of Point Processes\nMr. Lucas Fellmeth\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nThe use of a functional principal component analysis (FPCA) approach for estimating intensity functions from prior work allows us to obtain component scores of replicated point processes under the assumption of independent replications. We show these component scores can be modeled using classical autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models\, thus allowing us to also apply the FPCA model to non-independent replications. The Divvy bike-sharing system in the city of Chicago is showcased as an application. \nAdvisor: Prof. Daniel Gervini \nCommittee Members:\nProfs. Daniel Gervini\, David Spade\, and Chudamani Poudyal

SUMMARY:MS Thesis Defense: Mr. Sven Bergmann
DESCRIPTION:Adding a Third Normal to CLUBB\nMr. Sven Bergmann\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nThe Cloud Layers Unified By Binormals (CLUBB) model uses the sum of two normal probability density function (pdf) components to represent subgrid variability within a single grid layer of an atmospheric model. This binormal approach\, while computationally efficient\, restricts the model’s ability to capture the full spectrum of potential shapes encountered in real-world atmospheric data. This thesis proposes to introduce a third normal pdf component strategically positioned between the existing two\, significantly enhancing the model’s representational flexibility. This trinormal representation allows for a wider range of grid-layer shapes while permitting analytic solutions for certain higher order moments. The core of this work lies in deriving the necessary mathematical transformations for incorporating the third normal pdf seamlessly into the CLUBB framework. This thesis lists all formulas\, inputs\, and outputs associated with the extended model as well as gives an outline\non how to check those equations. Additionally\, it describes certain asymptotic behavior of the trinormal pdf under various parameter settings. \nAdvisor: Prof. Vince Larson \nCommittee Members:\nProfs.

SUMMARY:PhD Dissertation Defense: Mr. Dan Noelck
DESCRIPTION:Contraction Rates For McKean-Vlassov Stochastic Differential Equations\nMr. Dan Noelck\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nThis work focuses on the contraction rates for McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations (SDEs)\, McKean-Vlasov Stochastic differential delay equations (SDDEs)\, and path dependent McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations.\nUnder suitable conditions on the coefficients of the SDE\, this dissertation derives explicit quantitative contraction rates for the convergence in Wasserstein distances of McKean-Vlasov SDEs using the coupling method. The contraction results are then used to prove a propagation of chaos uniformly in time\, which\nprovides quantitative bounds on convergence rate of interacting particle systems\, and establishes exponential ergodicity for McKean-Vlasov SDEs. The dissertation further develops suitable conditions on the coefficients of the McKean-Vlasov SDDE to obtain a contraction in Wasserstein distance using the coupling method again. These results are used to establish exponential ergodicity for McKean-Vlasov SDDEs. Last the dissertation obtains suitable conditions on the coefficients of the path dependent McKean-Vlasov SDE for a contraction in Wasserstein distance. \nAdvisor: Prof. Chao Zhu \nCommittee Members:\nProfs.

SUMMARY:MS Thesis Defense: Mr. Silas Winnemoeller
DESCRIPTION:A Finite Element Block Modified Backward Euler Method For Solving A One-Dimensional Poisson-Nernst-Planck Ion Channel Model\nMr. Silas Winnemoeller\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nIn this thesis\, a finite element block modified backward Euler method is introduced to solve a one-dimensional Poisson-Nernst-Planck ion channel (1D PNPic) model. This model is defined as a system of time-dependent nonlinear partial differential equations\, called Poisson-Nernst equations and Poisson equation\, describing the transport of charged ionic species across a cell membrane via an ion channel pore. For an electrolyte with n ionic species\, its numerical solution gives a prediction to n ionic concentration functions and an electrostatic potential function. However\, solving the 1DPNPic model numerically is challenging due to the model’s strong nonlinearity and numerical stability issues. To address the numerical stability issues\, the traditional backward Euler implicit time scheme is often selected to solve the 1DPNPic model but it may be too costly to be practical in application since it has to solve a system of n + 1 strongly nonlinear partial differential equations at each time step. Hence\, its modification becomes necessary to reduce its computing cost while retaining its numerical stability properly. In this thesis\, the new method is constructed by semi-discretization and finite element techniques such that its each time iteration only involves calculation within two blocks with each block only containing two linear differential equations. Consequently\, the new method can reduce the\ncomputing cost of the Euler scheme sharply. In this thesis\, the new method is implemented as a software package in Python based on the finite element library from the FEniCS project. Numerical tests are then done for an electrolyte with two ionic species\, demonstrating the convergence and high performance of the new method. \nAdvisor: Prof. Dexuan Xie \nCommittee Members:\nProfs.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Melissa Beerbower
DESCRIPTION:On the Lucky Sets of Fubini Rankings\nMelissa Beerbower\nLoyola University Chicago \nRecall that Fubini rankings of length n are rankings of n competitors allowing for ties. We can say that the number of rankings\, k\, with k less than or equal to n\, is equal to the number of lucky competitors. A lucky competitor is the first to attain its rank. We enumerate Fubini rankings recursively through fixed sets of lucky competitors. Also recall that unit Fubini rankings are Fubini rankings with at most two competitors for each rank. We enumerate unit Fubini rankings through fixed lucky sets. Our enumerations explain twin coefficients for minimum powers in the lucky polynomial of ell-interval Fubini rankings.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Rafael S. González D'León
DESCRIPTION:On Whitney numbers of the first and second kind\, or is it the other way around?\nDr. Rafael S. González D’León\nAssistant Professor \nLoyola University Chicago \nAlgebraic combinatorics is centered on the idea that a variety of algebraic objects can be understood using the tools from combinatorics. In this talk\, I will illustrate this idea using a modern example of how combinatorial theories can give us a better understanding on a subject. The story I will tell involves the Whitney numbers of the first and second kind\, which are a pair of invariants of partially ordered sets (posets) that are relevant in several areas of mathematics. One of their most interesting appearances is as the coefficients of a polynomial enumerating proper colorings of a graph (think of colorings of a map where neighboring countries must be distinguishable from each other). They also appear counting regions in the complement of a real hyperplane arrangement. \nI will introduce and give insight into the algebraic and combinatorial objects in this story and share a very curious phenomenon: sometimes the Whitney numbers of the first and second kind of a poset are also the Whitney numbers of the second and first kind\, but of a different poset. Some recent results about this phenomenon could shed light on longstanding questions in the subject.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Laurel Ohm
DESCRIPTION:PDE Problems in Thin Filament Hydrodynamics\nProf. Laurel Ohm\nAssistant Professor of Mathematics\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison \nMany fundamental biophysical processes\, from cell division to cellular motility\, involve dynamics of thin structures immersed in a very viscous fluid. Various popular models have been developed to describe this fluid-structure interaction mathematically\, but much of our understanding of these models is at the level of numerics and formal asymptotics. Here we will discuss some of the interesting issues that arise in developing the PDE theory of thin filament hydrodynamics\, as well as the insights this analysis perspective can shed on the underlying biophysics.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Bob Eisenberg
DESCRIPTION:Ion Channels\, the Ultimate Multiscale Device\nProf. Bob Eisenberg\nProfessor of Biomathematics and Physiology\nDepartment of Physiology & Biophysics\, Rush University\, Chicago IL \nProteins called ion channels are the ultimate multiscale device\, the ‘nanovalves of life’ controlling most biological functions the way transistors control computers. A handful of atoms control biological function on the macroscale\, so analysis must link atomic distances of 10-10m with biological distances of 1 meter. Channels are of such biological and medical importance that hundreds of scientists study them every day and thousands of talks on channels are given at (for example) the annual meeting of the Biophysical Society (USA). Channels conduct ions (spherical charges like Na+ \, K+ \, Ca2+ \, and Cl- with diameter ~ 0.2 nm) through a narrow tunnel of permanent charge (‘doping’) with diameter ~ 0.6 nm. Channels can be studied in the tradition of physical science. PNP equations familiar in physics form an adequate initial model of current voltage relations in many types of channels under many conditions\, and can be extended to describe ‘chemical’ phenomena like selectivity with some success. Variational models and methods are needed to deal with the coupling of different fields. Ionic channels are studied with the powerful techniques of molecular biology. Atoms (and thus charges) can be substituted a few at a time and the location of every atom can be determined in favorable cases. Ion channels are one of the few living systems of great importance where natural biological function can be well described by a tractable set of equations. Mathematics and mathematicians are needed to apply these equations to the hundreds of channels of biological and clinical significance.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Alexander Moon
DESCRIPTION:Kohnert Properties of Northeast Diagrams\nAlexander Moon\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin – Milwaukee \nKohnert 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 will explore what Kohnert posets and polynomials are in general\, then I will discuss some recent results centering on the Kohnert properties of “northeast” diagrams. I will present some conditions for the boundedness and rankedness of a “northeast” Kohnert poset and present a surprising connection between certain minimal elements and key diagrams. There will be a worksheet. This is a joint work with Aram Bingham\, Beth Anne Castellano\, Kimberly Hadaway\, Reuven Hodges\, Yichen Ma\, and Kyle Salois that originated at this year’s GRWC.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Jillian Cervantes
DESCRIPTION:(t\,r) Broadcast Domination of the Truncated Square Tiling Graph\nJillian Cervantes\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin – Milwaukee \nThis talk will introduce graph domination theory and a generalization called (t\,r) broadcast domination. We study a family of graphs that arise as a finite subgraph of the truncated square tiling\, which utilizes regular squares and octagons to tile the Euclidean plane. For positive integers m and n\, we let Hm\,n be the graph consisting of m rows of n octagons (cycle graph on 8 vertices). For all t ≥ 2\, we provide lower and upper bounds for the (t\, 1) broadcast domination number for Hm\,n for all m\, n ≥ 1. We give exact (2\, 1) broadcast domination numbers for Hm\,n when (m\, n) ∈ {(1\, 1)\, (1\, 2)\, (1\, 3)\, (1\, 4)\, (2\, 2)}. We also consider the infinite truncated square tiling\, and we provide constructions of infinite (t\, r) broadcasts for (t\, r) ∈ {(2\, 1)\, (2\, 2)\, (3\, 1)\, (3\, 2)\, (3\, 3)\, (4\, 1)}. Using these constructions we give upper bounds on the density of these broadcasts i.e.\, the proportion of vertices needed to (t\, r) broadcast dominate this infinite graph. We end with some directions for future study

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Zhaosheng Feng
DESCRIPTION:Parabolic System of Aggregation Formation in Bacterial Colonies\nDr. Zhaosheng Feng\nEndowed Chair Professor of Mathematics\nUniversity of Texas Rio Grande Valley \nThe goal of this talk is to study a fourth-order nonlinear parabolic system with dispersion for describing bacterial aggregation. Analytical solution of traveling wave is found by taking into account the dispersion coefficient. Numerically\, we demonstrate that the initial concentration of bacteria in the form of a random distribution over time transforms into a periodic wave\, followed by a transition to a stationary solitary wave without dispersion.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Kelsey Brouwer
DESCRIPTION:Combinatorial Models for Some Generalized McMullen Maps in the Case of Two Bounded Critical Orbits\nKelsey Brouwer\nPhD Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin – Milwaukee \nThe family of generalized McMullen maps R(z)= z^n + b + a/z^n has two independent critical orbits. We consider the case in which one critical value lies in the immediate basin of an attracting cycle and the other critical value eventually lands in that immediate basin. Computer-generated images of the dynamical plane suggest the presence of both baby quadratic Julia sets and some sets which appear to be modifications of those. We present combinatorial models of the dynamics which help to explain this phenomena.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Daniel Stoertz
DESCRIPTION:Baby Mandelbrot Sets for Maximally Generalized McMullen Maps\nDr. Daniel Stoertz\nVisiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics\nSt. Olaf College \nIn Complex Dynamics\, we study the iteration of holomorphic or meromorphic functions on the complex plane or the Riemann sphere. Of particular interest is the behavior of the critical orbits of function families with one or more parameters. The simplest of such families\, z^2 +c\, is well-known to define the famous Mandelbrot set fractal as the set of c-values for which the unique critical orbit is bounded. In this talk we will examine the function family R(z) = z^n +b +a/(z^d)\, and we will explore old and new results establishing the location of baby Mandelbrot sets in parameter space for increasingly general versions of this family. In the most general case\, which we call maximally generalized McMullen maps\, this family has multiple independent critical orbits\, and the dynamics in this case are not yet well understood.

SUMMARY:ICMA-IX
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nInternational Conference on Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of Populations in Biological Systems \nThe 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 at this ninth conference will be placed on multiple scale dynamics in ecology\, epidemiology\, and systems biology; many biological systems operate on multiple spatial and temporal scales and the incorporation of these scales may be essential for capturing system dynamics. Specific topics include\, but are not limited to: \n\nImmuno-epidemiological and vector-host systems\nMolecular-cellular modeling in systems biology and oncology\nBiological invasions and persistence\nAdaption and evolutionary dynamics\nBiological systems operating on multiple spacial or temporal scales\n\nICMA-IX aims to accomplish at least three broad tasks: scientific progress\, scientific collaboration\, and the training of a future generation of mathematical biologists. The conference will thus have a significant impact\, both nationally and internationally\, on future research in biomathematics and mathematical biology. The collaborative opportunities provided to researchers at all points of the career path from undergraduate and graduate students\, to early-career faculty\, to established senior researchers will establish new directions and avenues for the national and international research community. \nHosts: \nPeter Hinow\nProfessor\nEMS\, E491\nhinow@uwm.edu \nGabriella Pinter\nProfessor\nEMS\, E479\ngapinter@uwm.edu

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Gregory Mwamba
DESCRIPTION:Blowup of the Nonlinear Klein-Gordon Equation in FLRW Spacetimes\nGregory Mwamba\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of California – Merced \nThe nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations are a class of important evolution equations that describe the movement of spinless relativistic particles\, which can lend understanding in many physical applications. In this talk we will demonstrate a sufficient condition for blowup of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation\, with arbitrarily positive initial energy in Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker spacetimes. This is accomplished using an established concavity method that has been employed for similar PDEs in Minkowski space. This proof relies on the energy inequality associated with this equation. \nThis talk will be online at the following zoom link: https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us/j/94983351854 and will also be streamed in EMS E495.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Kim Harry
DESCRIPTION:A q-analog of Kostant’s Weight Multiplicity Formula and a Product of Fibonacci Numbers\nKim Harry\nPhD Graduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nUsing Kostant’s weight multiplicity formula\, we describe and enumerate the terms contributing a nonzero value to the multiplicity of a positive root µ in the adjoint representation of sl_{r+1}(C)\, which we denote L(˜α)\, where ˜α is the highest root of sl_{r+1}(C). We prove that the number of terms contributing a nonzero value to the multiplicity of the positive root µ = α_i + α_i+1 + · · · + α_j with 1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ r in L(˜α) is given by the product F_i · F_(r−j+1)\, where F_n is the nth Fibonacci number. Using this result\, we show that the q-multiplicity of the positive root µ = α_i + α_i+1 + · · · + α_j with 1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ r in the representation L(˜α) is precisely q^{r−h(µ)}\, where h(µ) = j − i + 1 is the height of the positive root µ. Setting q = 1 recovers the known result that the multiplicity of a positive root in the adjoint representation of sl_{r+1}(C).

SUMMARY:Colloquium: aBa Mbirika & Morgan Fiebig
DESCRIPTION:A graphical approach to the Fibonacci sequence (Fn) n≥0 modulo m extended to the Lucas sequences (Un(p\,q))n≥0 and (Vn(P\,q))n≥0\naBa Mbirika & Morgan Fiebig\nUniversity of Wisconsin – Eau Claire \nThe goal of this talk is twofold: (1) extend theory on statistics in the Fibonacci and Lucas sequences modulo m to the Lucas sequences U :=(Un(p\,q))n≥0 and V :=(Vn(p\,q)n 0\, and (2) apply this theory to a novel graphical approach of U and V modulo m. The statistics we explore are the period π(m)\, entry point e(m)\, and order ω(m) := pi(m)/e(m). We generalize a wealth of known Fibonacci and Lucas statistical results to the U and V setting. Based on ω(m)\, we describe behaviors shared by infinite families of nondegenerate U and V sequences with parameters q = ± 1. In our graphical approach we place the cycle of repeating terms of the periods of U and V in a circle\, and patterns which would otherwise be overlooked emerge. In particular\, we exhibit some tantalizing examples in the following three sequence pairs: Fibonacci and Lucas\, Pell and associated Pell\, and\, balancing and Lucas-balancing. Our proofs utilize results from primary sources ranging from the ground-breaking papers of Lucas in 1878 and Carmichael in 1913\, to the seminal works of Wall in 1960 and Vinson in 1963\, amongst others.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Eric Redmon
DESCRIPTION:Finite State Machines and Bounded Permutations\nEric Redmon\nGraduate Student\nMarquette University \nWe define a k-bounded permutation π of length n to be a permutation such that for each pair of adjacent entries $\pi$ and $\pi(i + 1)$ for $i = 1\, 2\, 3\, . . . \, n − 1$ we have $|\pi(i) − \pi(i + 1)| \leq k$. Previous work has shown that the generating function for this family of permutations is rational\, and has computed generating functions for small values of $k$. In this talk\, we will discuss the nature of finite state machines and how we can leverage the insertion encoding devised by Albert\, Linton\, and Ruškuc to build a finite state machine that we can use to find generating functions for larger values of $k$.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Nick Mayers
DESCRIPTION:  \nWell-Behaved Kohnert Posets\nDr. Nicholas Mayers\nPostdoctoral Research Scholar\nNorth Carolina State University \nKohnert polynomials form a family of polynomials indexed by diagrams that consist of unit cells arranged in the first quadrant. Many families of well-known polynomials have been shown to be examples of Kohnert polynomials\, including key\, Schur\, and Schubert polynomials. Given a diagram D\, the monomials occurring in the corresponding Kohnert polynomial encode diagrams formed from D by applying sequences of certain moves\, called “Kohnert moves\,” each of which alters the position of at most one cell. In this talk\, we focus on the underlying sets of diagrams which generate the monomials of Kohnert polynomials. With each such collection of diagrams\, one can associate a poset structure which is known to not\, in general\, be well-behaved. In particular\, the corresponding “Kohnert posets” generally do not have a unique minimal element\, are not ranked\, and are not lattices. Here\, we will focus on recent attempts to find conditions under which Kohnert posets are well-behaved in the sense that they have a unique minimal element\, are ranked\, or are EL-Shellable. No background knowledge concerning posets is assumed.
