Student Model Theory Seminar
Ilir Ziba
In the Winter 2025 term, the student logic seminar will be a Model Theory reading seminar. Details can be found here:...
MHV gravity amplitudes and their combinatorics
Bailee Zacovic
In this talk, we investigate MHV tree-level gravity amplitudes as defined on the spinor-helicity variety. Unlike their gluon counterparts,...
Colloquim Seminar: Stable functions on groups
Gabe Conant (University of Illinois, Chicago)
In 2011, Malliaris and Shelah proved a strong form of Szemeredi's regularity lemma for the class of "stable graphs", which...
A Brief History of Intersection Theory (two lectures)
Bill Fulton
Early remarkable discoveries in intersection theory go back to...
Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Nontautological Cycles on Moduli Spaces of Smooth Curves
Emily Clader (San Francisco State University)
The cohomology of the moduli space of stable curves has been widely studied, but in general, understanding the full cohomology ring of this...
Adaptive Optimal Market Making Strategies with Inventory Liquidation Cost
Jose Figureoa-Lopez/ WashU
A novel high-frequency market-making approach in discrete time is proposed that admits closed-form solutions. By taking advantage of demand...
RTG Seminar on Geometry, Dynamics and Topology: Selberg, Ihara and Berkovich
Wenyu Pan (Toronto)
We use the Selberg zeta function to study the limit behavior of resonances of a degenerating family of Kleinian Schottky groups. We prove...

This talk addresses continuous-time reinforcement learning (RL) in settings where the system dynamics are governed by a stochastic...
Ziwet Colloquium Lecture: Mathematical Analysis of Novel Advanced Materials: Epitaxy and Quantum Dots, Wetting and Dewetting
Irene Fonesca (Carnegie Mellon University)
Quantum dots are man-made nanocrystals of semiconducting materials. Their formation and assembly patterns play a central role in...
Commutative Algebra Seminar -- (derived) jets and arcs and an imperfect curve selection lemma
Lance E. Miller (Arkansas)
Fix k a field and X an affine k-variety. For each non-negative integer r, associated to X are r-th jet spaces which parameterize polynomial...
AIM Seminar: Geomorphological controls on turbulent mixing in estuaries: implications for water quality
Lauren Ross (University of Maine, Coastal Engineering)
Abstract: Turbulent mixing in coastal environments can influence the distribution of material suspended in the water column and the...

Math Tenure Track Application Panel
Panel Q&A: How to apply for tenure-track jobs in math
"What is the process for applying for tenure-track positions in math?" "How do I prepare a strong application file?" If...
April IBL Lunch
Come talk about teaching with IBL, interactive, and other active teaching methods over lunch. Bring teaching anecdotes, thoughts, and your...
Math Postdoctoral Application Panel
How to apply for a math research postdoc
Considering applying for a research-focused postdoc position in math? Dick Canary---our department's chair of postdoc hiring---will...
