Speaker: John-Oliver MacLellan Title: Necessity of Two Weight Ap for L^p Boundedness of Singular Integral Operators Abstract:  The goal of this talk is to investigate necessary conditions for a singular integral operator to map L^p(v)-> L^p(u).  I will review the classical results for the maximal operator and Hilbert transform and then talk about more recent

Title: Decentralized consensus optimization on networks with delayed and stochastic gradients Abstract: Decentralized consensus optimization has extensive applications in many emerging big data, machine learning, and sensor network problems. In decentralized computing, nodes in a network privately hold parts of the objective function and need to collaboratively solve for the consensual optimal solution of the
