302 Gordon Palmer HallTitle: Stranger Strings Abstract: How can we describe all spaces of a given dimension? We'll start by describing 2-dimensional spaces, which look like donuts with any number of holes. Then we'll learn how to describe 3-dimensional spaces, by using knots to build portals in our familiar 3-dimensional space R^3.

Analysis Seminar – David Cruz-Uribe (University of Alabama)
227 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Poincare inequalities and Neumann problems for the p-Laplacian Abstract: I will discuss my recent work with Scott Rodney on the following equivalence: the existence of solutions to a degenerate p-Laplacian equation and the existence of a weighted (p,p) Poincare inequality. Our results are in the context of degenerate Sobolev spaces, where the degeneracy is

227 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: An introduction to Gamma convergence Abstract: Many mathematical problems involve parameters that make those problems more and more complex or degenerate. It is of great interest to study the limiting behavior when the parameter varies. One class of such problems can be studied in a variational framework. Writing $F_\epsilpon$ as a class of functional

228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Applied Mathematics for Soft Robotics Abstract: Soft materials are a bulk or composite collection of matter that undergoes deformations of similar or greater magnitude than the deformation of the environment, either plastically or elastically, within the force regime applied by its environment. For roboticists, soft materials can withstand impacts, are elastic and highly deformable,
