This year we will have a two day conference. Our speakers will include Gilbert Baumslag of The City College of New York and Robert Ghrist of the University of Pennsylvania. If you would like to help us advertise, you could download the conference poster and post it up in your department.
We are excited to announce that our keynote speakers will include Gilbert Baumslag and Robert Ghrist.
Will be giving a keynote talk.
Keynote Title: Groups, knots and puzzles
Abstract: Group theory touches on many different subjects, is inspired by all of them and reaches into unexpected areas as well, such as puzzles. This informal, non-technical and at times rambling, talk, designed for a general audience will, I hope, help to justify this remark.
Will be giving the interdisciplinary talk and a keynote talk.
Keynote Title: Sheaves, (co)homology, and networks
Abstract: Sheaf theory is the premiere mathematical language for integrating local data into global structures. The perspective of a sheaf as a data structure over a space makes the theory relevant to modern problems in engineering systems, computer science, and more. This talk will outline some very simple applications of sheaves and sheaf (co)homology to problems in the flow of data over networks.
