SUMMARY:Community of Practice:  Introduction to Transparency in Learning and Teaching 
DESCRIPTION:Community of Practice: Introduction to Transparency in Learning and Teaching\nWhat is the core purpose of the assignments\, tasks\, and learning opportunities in our courses?  Better yet\, what do our students think is the primary purpose?  In this workshop we will discuss Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) and how it can inform our teaching.  We’ll develop a list of best practices and brainstorm how to implement in our courses.  To get the most out of the session\, bring an assignment such as a homework set\, an out-of-class task\, or a project from a class you’re teaching – ideally something coming up this semester or early next semester—and bring along a colleague\, too!  We’ll actively workshop together\, and you’ll walk away with a new and improved transparent assignment (or at least the tools to build one)!\n\nFor a sneak peek\, check out tilthighered.com\n\n\nFacilitated by Hayley Nathan and Suzanne Boyd.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Ning Wei
DESCRIPTION:The Impact of Ephaptic Coupling and Ionic Electrodiffusion on Arrhythmogenesis in the Heart\nNing Wei\nAssistant Professor\nPurdue University \nCardiac myocytes synchronize through electrical signaling to contract heart muscles\, facilitated by gap junctions (GJs) in the intercalated disc (ID). GJs provide low-resistance pathways for electrical impulse propagation between myocytes\, serving as the primary mechanism for electrical communication in the heart. However\, research indicates that conduction can persist without GJs. For instance\, GJ knockout mice still exhibit slow\, discontinuous electrical propagation\, suggesting alternative communication mechanisms. Ephaptic coupling (EpC) serves as an alternative way for cell communication\, relying on electrical fields within narrow clefts between neighboring myocytes. Studies show that EpC can enhance conduction velocity (CV) and reduce conduction block (CB)\, especially when GJs are compromised.  Reduced GJs and significant electrochemical gradients are prevalent in various heart diseases. However\, existing models often fail to capture their combined influence on cardiac conduction\, which limits our understanding of both the physiological and pathological aspects of the heart.  Our study aims to address this gap by developing a two-dimensional (2D) multidomain electrodiffusion model that incorporates EpC. This is the first model to capture the dynamics of all ions across multiple domains\, enabling us to reveal the impact of EpC in the heart. In particular\, we investigated the interplay between ionic electrodiffusion and EpC on action potential propagation\, morphology\, electrochemical properties and arrhythmogenesis in both healthy and ischemic hearts. Our findings indicate that ionic electrodiffusion enhances CV and reduces CB under strong EpC. Specifically\, the electrodiffusion of Ca2+ and K+ intensifies the effects of EpC on action potential morphology\, whereas Na+ diffusion mitigates these effects. Ionic electrodiffusion also facilitates action potential propagation into ischemic regions when EpC is substantial. Moreover\, strong EpC can effectively terminate reentry\, prevent its initiation\, and lower the maximum dominant frequency (max DF)\, irrespective of GJ functionality. However\, weak EpC may help counteract proarrhythmic effects when GJ coupling is slightly to moderately reduced\, contributing to the stabilization of conduction patterns.  Additionally\, strong EpC  notably alters ionic concentrations in the cleft\, significantly increasing [K+] and nearly depleting [Ca2+]\, while causing moderate changes in [Na+]. This multidomain electrodiffusion model sheds light on the mechanisms of EpC in the heart.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Alexander Wilson
DESCRIPTION:Symmetries and Diagram Algebras\nDr. Alexander Wilson\nVisiting Assistant Professor of Mathematics\nOberlin College \nIn this talk I will introduce you to the world of symmetric group representations through diagram algebras\, which trace their origin to the Temperley-Lieb algebra with applications in integrable models\, knot theory\, and quantum groups. For representation theory\, these algebras offer a sneaky path toward solving difficult problems by understanding the ways that graph-theoretic diagrams combine. The only background I will assume is some familiarity with linear algebra\, so if you like (or at least tolerate) playing around with pretty combinatorial objects\, I hope you’ll attend!

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Mr. Mike Clutterbuck
DESCRIPTION:Embeddings: The Language of AI\nMr. Mike Clutterbuck\nLead Data Scientist\nWantable Inc. \nEmbeddings are a core concept in machine learning that help AI understand and organize complex data. They take things like words\, images\, or user behavior and turn them into compact numerical representations\, making it easier for AI to spot patterns and relationships. This is how LLMs understand language and recommendation systems personalize content. \nMathematically\, embeddings work by placing similar items closer together in a structured space\, using techniques like matrix factorization\, neural networks\, and dimensionality reduction. This makes them essential for search\, personalization\, fraud detection\, next-word prediction\, and more. While they might seem abstract\, embeddings are working behind the scenes in many of the AI-powered products and tools we use today

SUMMARY:PhD Dissertation Defense: Kimberly Harry
DESCRIPTION:Kostant’s Formula and Parking Functions: Combinatorial Explorations\nKimberly Harry\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nWe let L(λ) denote the irreducible highest weight representation of the classical simple Lie algebra g with highest weight λ. Kostant’s weight multiplicity formula gives a way to compute the multiplicity of a weight µ in L(λ)\, denoted m(λ\, µ)\, via an alternating sum over the Weyl group whose terms involve the Kostant partition function. The Weyl alternation set A(λ\, µ) is the set of Weyl group elements that contribute nontrivially to the multiplicity m(λ\, µ). We prove that Weyl alternation sets are order ideals in the weak Bruhat order of the Weyl group. Specializing to the Lie algebra of type A\, we prove that the Weyl alternation sets A(˜α\, µ)\, where ˜α is the highest root of sl_{r+1}(C) and µ is a positive root is a product of Fibonacci numbers. Using this result\, we show that the q-multiplicity of the positive root in the representation L(˜α) is precisely a power of q. We give a complete characterization of the Weyl alternation sets A(˜α\, µ)\, where µ is now a negative root of sl_{r+1}(C). We also show that the cardinality of these Weyl alternation sets satisfies a two-term recurrence relation involving Fibonacci numbers. Time permitting I will present further results related to collaborative projects I have contributed to during my years at 51����. \nAdvisor: Pamela E. Harris \nCommittee Members:\nProfs.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Matt McClinton
DESCRIPTION:Fractal Geometry and Non-Integer Dimensions\nMatt McClinton\nPhD Graduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nPopularized in the 1980s\, fractals have become something of a household name. These fractal sets often demonstrate peculiar topological properties. One such property is the notion of a fractal dimension. Sets such as the Cantor set\, Sierpinski Gasket (SG)\, and the von Koch curve are traditionally visualized in 2D images. However\, these sets actually exist in-between dimensions 1 and 2! \nCertain fractals can be built using what is known as an Iterated Function System (IFS)\, and there is a powerful theorem stating that having an IFS representation of a fractal provides a simple means of determining the fractal dimension. I will begin by stating the IFS that generates the Sierpinski Gasket. There are two transformations on the Gasket to which creates the Level-n Stretched Sierpinski Gasket (SSG^n). I will demonstrate how one constructs the IFS for SSG^n\, as well as provide the highlights to a theorem in which I prove the fractal dimension of SSG^n.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Alastair Fletcher
DESCRIPTION:Infinitesimal Spaces of Quasiregular Mappings\nProf. Alastair Fletcher\nProfessor of Mathematical Sciences and Director of Undergraduate Studies\nNorthern Illinois University \nHow can we differentiate functions which are not differentiable? In the context of quasiregular mappings\, a generalization of holomorphic functions where now infinitesimal circles are mapped to infinitesimal ellipses\, there is a satisfactory answer to this question given by infinitesimal spaces. In this talk\, we will survey these objects and discuss some ongoing work with relevance to the Decomposition Problem for bi-Lipschitz maps.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Jason DeBlois
DESCRIPTION:Some Things We Do and Don’t Know About Knots\nDr. Jason DeBlois\nAssociate Professor\nUniversity of Pittsburgh \nIn this talk\, “knot” will mean a circle embedded in three-dimensional space. These have been formally studied since the late 19th century. More recently\, new computational and geometric tools have allowed us to make substantial progress on understanding the landscape of knots and their invariants\, but they have also raised new questions. I will introduce the study of knots\, sketch its history\, and describe what is known (to me) about some of these questions relating to hyperbolic geometry.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Ariel Minakawa and Gavin Sayrs
DESCRIPTION:Stirling Permutations to Increasing Plane Trees and Back\nAriel Minakawa and Gavin Sayrs\nUndergraduate Students\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nA Stirling permutation is a permutation on the multiset {1\,1\, 2\, 2\, 3\, 3\, … \,n\, n} such that any numbers appearing between repeated values of i must be greater than i. Recall that a plane tree is a tree drawn on a plane with no edges crossing. An increasing plane tree is a plane tree where each vertex is labeled from 1 to n\, with labels increasing away from the root. Our main result establishes a bijection from Stirling permutations to its respective increasing plain tree.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Shamgar Gurevich
DESCRIPTION:How you think on a function defined on 0\,1\,…\,N-1?\nProf. Shamgar Gurevich\nProfessor of Mathematics\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison \nBetween thousand to million times per day\, your cellphone calculates the Fourier Transform (FT) of certain functions defined on 0\,1\,…\,N-1\, with N large (order of magnitude of thousands and more). The calculation is done using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) – discovered by Cooley–Tukey in 1965 and by Gauss in 1805. \nIn the lecture I want to advertise a beautiful way—due to Auslander-Tolimieri—to obtain the FFT as a natural consequence of an answer to the following: \nQUESTION: How to think on the space of functions on the set 0\,1\,…\,N-1? \nEngineers tell us that there are two answers for this question: \n(A) as functions on that set\, where 0\,1\,…\,N-1 regarded as times; \nand\, \n(B) as functions on that set\, where 0\,1\,…\,N-1 regarded frequencies; \nand then the FT is an operator translating between the two spaces. \nIn the lecture\, I will explain that there is another answer\, i.e.\, a not so well-known third space (C)\, of arithmetic nature\, that also gives an answer to the above question\, and then the FFT appears simply as the composition of two operators:\nthe one translating between spaces (A) and (C)\, and the one that translates (C) to (B). \nRemark: The lecture is prepared to be understood to anyone who is familiar with basic linear algebra. In particular\, advanced undergraduate students\, from computer science\, engineering\, mathematics\, physics\, etc\, are more than welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Jackson Thurmond
DESCRIPTION:Generalized Linear Model Approach to the Prediction of the Outcome of Mixed Martial Arts Fights\nJackson Thurmond\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nMixed martial arts is a complex combat sport that encompasses striking\, grappling and submissions. In a sport where fights can be won by finishing a fight or go to decision there is a multitude of factors that can influence the outcome of a fight. In the Ultimate Fighting Championship a fighter is either designated the red or blue corner. Since mixed martial arts is a sport in which two competitors fight\, and one is declared a winner\, the result of a fight can be thought of a binary classification problem. In an effort to determine which factors are statistically significant to a fight\, a generalized linear model approach was selected.

DESCRIPTION:Quads\, Finite Geometry\, and Sidon Sets\nDr. Lauren Rose\nAssociate Professor of Mathematics\nBard College \nQuads is a SET-like card game\, produced by the AWM under the name “EvenQuads”. The cards can be represented as points in $\mathbb{Z}_2^6$​\, where a quad in the game corresponds to an affine plane in the finite geometry$ AG(6\,2)$. Our primary focus is on quad-free collections of cards\, which correspond to Sidon sets. We explore an Quads analog of the “Cap Set” problem for SET\, presenting results and ongoing research.

SUMMARY:Math Community of Practice: Let's Talk About Math Anxiety
DESCRIPTION:Math Community of Practice: Let’s Talk About Math Anxiety\n\nAccording to a March 2024 US News survey\, most college students report struggling with mental health issues. Given that mathematicians are typically not mental health professionals\, knowing how to address this in the classroom often falls outside the scope of our expertise. This session will introduce participants to the concept of math anxiety\, a mental health issue that affects how students perform in our classrooms. Participants will learn about the condition\, dispel some common myths and rumors about mental health in the classroom\, and leave with a list of research-supported interventions they can try in their classes to support students with math anxiety without sacrificing content or rigor. \nFacilitated by Beccah MacKinnon

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Dr. Suzanne Boyd
DESCRIPTION:Polynomial-time Computability of the Julia Set for Polynomial Skew Products of Two Complex Variables\nDr. Suzanne Boyd\nAssociate Professor\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nIngrained in the modern study of dynamical systems is the use of computer experiments for revelation and illustration. In this talk\, I will explain a polynomial-time computer algorithm for approximating the Julia set of a polynomial skew product of two complex variables. I will begin by defining the involved terms\, including computability\, Julia set\, and polynomial skew product. This work is joint with Christian Wolf. It relies on some my previous work on designing and implementing rigorous computer algorithms to confirm results of the experimental observations on the dynamics of polynomial maps of two complex variables\, including polynomial skew products. These algorithms are designed to locate a neighborhood of the chain recurrent set\, build a model of the dynamics of the map on this set\, and attempt to determine hyperbolicity (or Axiom A) of the map on its chain recurrent set.

SUMMARY:Marden Lecture: Dr. Trachette Jackson
DESCRIPTION:Mobilizing Mathematics for the Fight Against Cancer\nDr. Trachette Jackson\nProfessor of Mathematics and Associate Vice President for Research – Strategic Partnerships and Inclusive Excellence\nUniversity of Michigan \nIt is an exciting time to work in the interdisciplinary field of Mathematical Oncology. Even TIME Magazine agrees\, “A team-based\, cross-disciplinary approach to cancer research is upending tradition and delivering results faster.” Mathematical oncologists apply mathematical and computational modeling approaches to every aspect of cancer biology\, from tumor initiation to malignant spread to treatment response. This talk will highlight a suite of mathematical models from the past and present designed to improve the efficacy of drug treatment strategies for cancer. Combined with existing and newly generated experimental data\, these mathematical models are poised to enhance the ability to combine promising drugs for clinical trials. This type of interdisciplinary science can reduce the time and costs associated with transitioning novel therapeutics approaches from “equations to bench to bedside.” \nReception to follow in LEC

SUMMARY:Marden Colloquium: Dr. Trachette Jackson
DESCRIPTION:Agent-based Modeling of Dysregulated Cell Signaling and the Tumor-Immune Landscape Predicts New Possibilities for Combination Therapy\nDr. Trachette Jackson\nProfessor of Mathematics and Associate Vice President for Research – Strategic Partnerships and Inclusive Excellence\nUniversity of Michigan \nMathematical models\, specifically agent-based models (ABMs)\, have shown recent successes in uncovering the multiscale dynamics that shape the trajectory of cancer. They have enabled the optimization of treatment methods and the identification of novel therapeutic strategies. To assess the combined effects on tumor growth and the immune response of monoclonal antibodies that boost the immune system (immunotherapy) and small molecule inhibitors (SMI) that counteract the effect of driver mutations\, we build and analyze an ABM that captures key facets of tumor heterogeneity and immune cell dynamics\, their spatial interactions\, and their response to therapeutic pressures. Our model predicts that under certain conditions\, immunotherapy alone is optimal; in others\, immunotherapy followed by mutation-targeted therapy is best. These results suggest that optimal treatment depends on the strength of cellular signaling pathways and highlight the need to quantify mutation-dependent cell signaling and the fitness advantage conferred on cancer cells harboring these mutations.

SUMMARY:Graduate Student Colloquium: Levi Montee
DESCRIPTION:Partitioning the Natural Numbers with Fibonacci-like Sequences\nLevi Montee\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nFamously seen in the displacement of seeds in a sunflower\, the branching of tree limbs or enumerating results in a variety of combinatorics problems\, the Fibonacci sequence has become one of the most recognizable sequences in mathematics. Beginning f0 = 0\, f1 = 1\, and continuing fn+1 = fn + fn-1\, this simple recurrence relation has been well studied for centuries. In this talk\, we will investigate sequences determined by the same recurrence relation given alternative starting points. We attempt to classify these sequences\, see which familiar Fibonacci properties are kept intact\, and examine when two such sequences share terms. Ultimately\, we aim to find a set of disjoint Fibonacci-like sequences that partition the natural numbers\, and see how these might be useful in solving particular logic games/puzzles.

SUMMARY:MS Thesis Defense: Mr. Jackson Thurmond
DESCRIPTION:Generalized Linear Model approach to the Prediction of the outcome of Mixed Martial Arts Fights\nMr. Jackson Thurmond\nGraduate Student\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee \nMixed martial arts is a complex combat sport that encompasses striking\, grappling and submissions. In a sport where fights can be won by finishing a fight or go to decision there is a multitude of factors that can influence the outcome of a fight. In an effort to determine which factors are statistically significant to a fight a generalized linear model approach was selected. Since mixed martial arts is a sport in which two competitors fight\, and one is declared a winner\, the result of a fight can be thought of a binary classification problem. \nAdvisor:\nDavid Spade \nCommittee Members:\nDavid Spade\, Chao Zhu\, and Lijing Sun

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Caroline Terry
DESCRIPTION:Measuring Combinatorial Complexity via Regularity Lemmas\nProf. Caroline Terry\nAssociate Professor\nUniversity of Illinois-Chicago \nMany tools have been developed in combinatorics to study global structure in finite graphs. One such tool is called Szemerédi’s regularity lemma\, which gives a structural decomposition for any large finite graph. Beginning with work of Alon-Fischer-Newman\, Lovász-Szegedy\, and Malliaris-Shelah\, it has been shown over the last 15 years that regularity lemmas can be used to detect structural dichotomies in graphs\, and that these dichotomies have deep connections to model theory. One striking example is a dichotomy in the size of regular partitions\, first observed by Alon-Fox-Zhao. Specifically\, if a hereditary graph property H has finite VC-dimension\, then results of Alon-Fischer-Newman and Lovász-Szegedy imply all graphs in H have regular partitions of size polynomial is 1/ε. On the other hand\, if H has infinite VC-dimension\, then results of Gowers and Fox-Lovász show there are graphs in H whose smallest 1/ε-regular partition has size at least an exponential tower of height polynomial in 1/ε. In this talk\, I present several analogous dichotomies in the setting of hereditary properties of 3-uniform hypergraphs.

SUMMARY:Colloquium: Prof. Yangjin Kim
DESCRIPTION:Cytokine Shield Formation in Tumor Growth by Blocking Chemotactic Migration of T Cells in Response to CXCL12 from Senescent Tumor Cells\nProf. Yangjin Kim\nProfessor\nBrown University \nCellular senescence can induce dual effects (promotion or inhibition) on cancer progression. While immune cells naturally respond and migrate toward various chemotactic sources from the tumor mass\, various factors including senescent tumor cells (STCs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) may affect this chemotactic movement. In this work\, we investigate the mutual interactions between the tumor cells and the immune cells (T cells and macrophages) that either inhibit or facilitate tumor growth by developing a mathematical model that consists of taxis-reaction-diffusion equations and receptor kinetics for the key players in the interaction network. We first apply a mathematical model to a transwell Boyden chamber invasion assay used in the experiments to illustrate that STCs can play a pivotal role in negating immune attack through tight regulation of intra- and extra-cellular signaling molecules. The mathematical model consists of a system of parabolic-hyperbolic PDEs with two separate model domains based on experimental setting empirical data. Neuman B.C. on the outer boundary and Interface B.C. from homogenization of holes of various sizes on porous membrane are assigned. In particular\, we show that senescent tumor cells in cell cycle arrest can block intratumoral infiltration of CD8+ T cells by secreting a high level of CXCL12\, which leads to significant reduction its receptors\, CXCR4\, on T cells\, and thus impaired chemotaxis. Macrophages also play an important role in mediating or inhibiting given signaling pathways between different cells in TME. The predictions of nonlinear responses to CXCL12 were in good agreement with experimental data. We tested several hypotheses on immune-tumor interactions under various biophysical- and biochemical- conditions in the tumor microenvironment and developed new concepts for anti-tumor strategies targeting senescence induced immune impairment. \n
