346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Quantifying model-form uncertainty with an application to subsurface transport Abstract: Computational models are increasingly used to make predictions affecting high-consequence engineering design and policy decisions. However, incomplete information about the represented phenomena and limitations in computational resources require approximations and simplifications that can lead to uncertainties in the computational models’ forms and errors in

Francis Su’s Colloquium
Colloquium Thursday, April 20, 2023 The presentation will begin at 11:00 AM in 301 Gordon Palmer Hall. Francis Su Harvey Mudd College Title: Sperner's Lemma: Old and New Abstract: Sperner’s Lemma is perhaps best known as a combinatorial equivalent of the Brouwer fixed point theorem. In this talk, I’ll survey old and new proofs of
Uly Alvarez’s Colloquium
346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Cluster Algebras and Quiver Grassmannians Abstract: Since their conception, cluster algebras have made appearances in different fields such as algebra, combinatorics, geometry, and topology. For example, a class of objects from representation theory called quiver Grassmannians have been useful in describing the generators of cluster algebras using the Euler characteristic. This has motivated the
Abba Ramadan’s Colloquium
346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United StatesTitle: Stability of Nonlinear Waves in Hamiltonian PDE Abstract: Nonlinear dispersive wave equations arise as reduced mathematical models from governing equations of mathematical physics, such as the Navier-Stokes and Maxwell equations. These reduced models combine the leading-order balance between nonlinear and dispersive effects present in wave propagation. The existence and stability of coherent structures such
