Analysis Seminar – Kabe Moen, University of Alabama

230 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, AL, United States

Title: Cotlar’s Inequality Abstract: We will go over Cotlar’s classic inequality concerning the maximal truncation operator of a Calderon-Zygmund operator.  We will also cover some recent results for operators that satisfy a stronger Cotlar inequality.

Applied Math Seminar – Yichuan Zhao, Georgia State University

Title: Empirical likelihood for the bivariate survival function under univariate censoring Abstract: The bivariate survival function plays an important role in multivariate survival analysis. Using the idea of influence functions, we develop empirical likelihood confidence intervals for the bivariate survival function in the presence of univariate censoring. It is shown that the empirical log-likelihood ratio

Analysis Seminar – Scott Rodney, Cape Breton University

Title: Compact Embeddings of Weighted Sobolev Spaces Abstract: In this talk I will discuss some improvements to recent results concerning the compact em- bedding of generalized Sobolev classes into weighted Lq spaces. The novelty of the result lay in the approach. Arguments use Cauchy sequences rather than distributional denitions of Sobolev classes. As a result,

AWM Seminar – Elizabeth Peplinski, Alabama Insurance Society

This will be a unique opportunity to learn about

Special Analysis Seminar – Marcin Bownik, University of Oregon

230 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, AL, United States

Title: Exponential frames and syndetic Riesz sequences Abstract: In this talk we shall explore some of the consequences of the solution to the Kadison-Singer problem. In the first part of the talk we present results from a joint work with Itay Londner. We show that every subset $S$ of the torus of positive Lebesgue measure

Applied Math Seminar – Haomin Zhou, Georgia Institute of Technology

Title: Optimal Transport on Finite Graphs with Applications Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss the optimal transport theory on discrete spaces. Various recent developments related to free energy, Fokker-Planck equations, as well as Wasserstein distance on graphs will be presented, some of them are rather surprising. Applications in game theory and robotics will be

Analysis Seminar – David Cruz-Uribe, University of Alabama

230 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, AL, United States

Abstract:  In this talk I will give an over-view of the Stieltjes integral and  review some of the many definitions that appear in the literature.  I will talk about the strengths and weaknesses of each, particularly in relationship to the classical Darboux and Riemann integrals.  I will conclude with a discussion of a new definition
