Analysis Seminar – Joshua Isralowitz (SUNY Albany)

Title: Sparse domination of commutators via matrix techniques Abstract: In this talk, we will show how one can obtain sparse domination of iterated commutators from a convex body domination of an operator via a simple algebraic trick.  Time permitting, we discuss consequences and related results, such as a bumped Orlicz BMO type sufficient condition for the two

Title: Mathematical AI for drug discovery Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) has fundamentally changed the landscape of science, technology, industry, and social media in the past few years. It holds a great future for discovering new drugs significantly faster and cheaper. However, AI-based drug discovery encounters obstacles arising from the structural complexity of protein-drug interactions and

Applied Math Seminar – Hongsong Feng, University of Alabama

Title: Augmented matched interface and boundary(AMIB) method for elliptic interface problem and a high order fast Poisson solver Abstract: The elliptic interface problem plays an important role in fields such as electromagnetics, bimolecular electrostatics, and material science. This talk introduces augmented matched interface and boundary method that is applied to obtain second order fast solution

Title: Minimizers for the Cahn-Hilliard energy functional under the Dirichlet boundary conditions Abstract: We study the minimizers for the Cahn-Hilliard energy functional with a symmetric quartic double-well potential and under the Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using the Nehari manifold method and connecting it to the eigenvalue problem for the negative Laplacian with the homogeneous boundary condition, we prove that if the boundary value is

Title: A Szemeredi-type theorem for subsets of the unit cube. Abstract: We are interested in arithmetic progressions in positive measure subsets of ^d. After a counterexample by Bourgain, it seemed as if nothing could be said about the longest interval formed by sizes of their gaps. However, Cook, Magyar, and Pramanik gave a positive result

AWI Presents: Water H.U.B. Talks series; An opportunity for researchers to come together.

Bevill Building, Room 1000 201 7th Avenue, Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

Title: Hydrodynamic Driven Dissolution In Carbonate Formations: Application to Sinkhole Formation Investigation The extremes of rainfall, extended drought seasons, and groundwater overuse accelerate the formation of sinkholes. In the United States, 20% of the land surface is karst and susceptible to sinkhole formation, especially in Texas, Alabama, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, and Florida. Despite the increased
