30 Jan '23

Hi, There are two virtual math colloquia this week from top young mathematicians. Even though the campus may be closed tomorrow, Zoom will not be. The first colloquium is: Tuesday, Jan. 31, 3:30 PM via Zoom: Xiaoqian Gong, Arizona State University Title: On the Mathematical Properties of Some Multi-Scale Traffic Models Abstract is attached with QR code for Zoom link. Also, here is the Zoom link https://okstate-edu.zoom.us/j/94559508908?pwd=aFZNNVZSVGRUTXNoaUhzRGZIMVNiZ… Second colloquium is: Friday, Feb. 03, 9:00 AM via Zoom (Note the speaker is in Hong Kong, which is why this is an early morning talk.) Kayue Daniel Wong, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Title: Classifying the unitary dual of real reductive groups Abstract is attached with QR code for Zoom link. Also here is the Zoom link: https://okstate-edu.zoom.us/j/91911677357?pwd=RDVxRmMvNUJEd21reE9lcXk0N2h2U… I hope you can join us. The talks will be recorded, and a link may be provided upon request after the talks. Sincerely, David Wright

Colloquia this week
by David Wright 16 Jan '23

16 Jan '23

The OSU Math Department colloquia begin this week: First up, Tuesday, 3:30 PM virtual with zoom link https://okstate-edu.zoom.us/j/95282160606?pwd=U3RDWEZyZlpINmJPTXZXUzVoSDNLQ… Sean T. McQuade, Rutgers Camden, Center for Comput. and Integr. Biology How chemical networks can be in equilibrium Abstract: Chemical networks, such as metabolism can be simulated to assist in an array of research including new drug discovery, personalized medicine, and testing high-risk treatment before applying it to humans. Improved biochemical simulations can also reduce our dependence on animal testing before clinical trials. This talk demonstrates a mathematical framework for biochemical systems that progresses toward improved early phase drug dis- covery and personalized medicine. ================================================= Second, Friday 3:30 PM, Virtual with Zoom link https://okstate-edu.zoom.us/j/93956536024?pwd=d1Vrd1FnMjRnb1FZNEthQXRVQnFtd… Justin Lacini, University of Kansas Syzygies of adjoint linear series on projective varieties Abstract: Syzygies of algebraic varieties have long been a topic of intense interest among algebraists and geometers alike. Starting with the pioneering work of Mark Green on curves, numerous attempts have been made to extend these results to higher dimensions. Ein and Lazarsfeld proved that if A is a very ample line bundle, then K_X + mA satisfies property Np for any m ≥ n + 1 + p. It has ever since been an open question if the same holds true for A ample and basepoint free. In joint work with Purnaprajna Bangere we give a positive answer to this question. ============================================================= I hope you enjoy these math talks from top young mathematicians. Sincerely, David Wright

Math Colloquia
by David Wright 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

Hi, For the next four weeks, we have scheduled Collouia by a selection of top young mathematicians. The list is attached. These will be Zoom talks, and the Zoom links and abstracts will be emailed out shortly before the talks. Some of the title and abstracts are at the department's seminar sites: https://www.mathdept.okstate.edu/announce/ or the department lounge bulletin board. For faculty, the Zoom links will be posted at the Department Canvas site https://canvas.okstate.edu/courses/129477 Hope to see you at the talks. If you have someone in mind to invite for a colloquium later in the term, please let me know. The schedule is fairly open. Sincerely, David Wright
