Colloquium – Ricardo Cortez, Tulane University
302 Gordon Palmer HallMathematical and Computational Modeling of Microorganism Swimming Motions Microscopic swimmers like bacteria and spermatozoa live in highly viscous environments. Their locomotion and the fluid flows they generate around them have been actively investigated for the last 60 years motivated by questions about effective locomotion strategies, the organism's interaction with the surrounding environment, patterns of collective

228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Time reversal acoustic communication in the ocean Abstract: The global marine ecosystem is undergoing significant changes due to human activities and natural processes. These changes call for enhanced capabilities to sample and communicate in the oceans. With this background, underwater acoustic communication has attracted much attention across multiple disciplines, as this key subsea technology
Analysis Seminar – Hanh Nguyen, University of Alabama
227 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: The boundedness of multilinear Calderon-Zygmund operators on weighted and variable spaces. Abstract: In this talk, we will establish the boundedness of the above operators from a product of weighted Hardy spaces into a weighted Hardy space or weighted Lebesgue space. Our work extends a result of Stromberg and Torchinsky for linear operators to multilinear
Algebra/Topology Seminar – Elena Pavelescu, University of South Alabama
302 Gordon Palmer HallTitle: Complete minors of self-complementary graphs. Abstract: A self-complementary graph on n vertices is a graph which is isomorphic to its graph complement within K_n, the complete graph on n vertices. These graphs have a high degree of structure, and yet they are far from trivial. This talk focuses on minors of self-complementary graphs. Minors

228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: A Priori and a posteriori error estimate for weak Galerkin finite element method on polygonal meshes Abstract: Polygonal mesh has advantages including lower DOFs requirement for the same level of accuracy and more flexibility in generating mesh, and better mesh quality over standard discretization with quad mesh or triangular mesh. Also the hanging nodes
AWM – Martha Makowski, University of Alabama
228 Gordon Palmer Hall Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesDespite a large focus on promoting diversity in the STEM fields, nationally only around 25% of PhD's in the mathematical sciences are awarded to women. This talk will introduce and review some of the educational research that examines issues of recruitment and retention of women in mathematics. Discussion and reflection on these issues with the
Analysis Seminar – Eduard Roure Perdices, Universidad de Barcelona
227 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Weighted restricted weak type inequalities Abstract: We review classical results concerning the bounds of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on weighted Lorentz spaces and discuss the analogous bounds for the pointwise product of such operators. A new Hölder-type inequality for Lorentz spaces is used.

346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Statistically and Numerically Efficient Independence Test The big data is a well-known phenomenon in the modern world. The emerging discipline of data science has inspired a lot of discussion and debate in the scientific research communities, including the mathematical and statistical science community. Contributing to this discussion, in the first part of this talk,
