Advisor: Dr. Jess HagmanCommittee: Dr. Hortensia Soto , Dr. Liz Arnold, Dr. David MostTitle: Exploring women of color’s expressions of mathematical identity:The role of institutional resources and mathematical valuesAbstract: There is a persistent and growing global call to examine,challenge, and transform exclusionary structures and systems withinmathematics education (Laursen & Austin, 2020; Thomas & Drake, 2016;Wagner […]
We are excited to announce that the University of Colorado, Boulder andColorado State University, Fort Collins will be hosting Front RangeNumber Theory Day on April 29, 2023, at University of Colorado inBoulder. The goal of the FRNTD is to provide a venue for faculty,graduate students, and undergraduates on the Front Range who areinterested in number […]
Advisor: Dr. Chris Peterson Co-Advisor:Dr. Clayton ShonkwilerCommittee: Dr. Renzo Cavalieri, Dr. Michael Kirby, Dr Louis-Noel PouchetTitle: Visualising geodesics along a GrassmannianAbstract: A Grassman is a set of points where each point represents avector space of the same dimension within a larger space. For instance,within the set of real vector spaces, Gr(2,4) is the set of2-dimensional […]
Title: Nanoscale Pattern Formation Produced by Ion Bombardment of Solid Surfaces Abstract: Bombarding a solid surface with a broad ion beam can produce a remarkable variety of nanoscale patterns. Oblique-incidence bombardment, for example, can lead to the formation of surface ripples with wavelengths as short as 10 nanometers. The anisotropic Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (AKS) equation has traditionally been used […]

Speaker: Jeremy Booher, University of FloridaTitle: Towers of Curves, Motivic Class Groups, and EquicharacteristicL-FunctionsAbstract: For a prime p, let K_n form a Z_p-tower of function fieldscorresponding to smooth projective curves C_n over a perfect field ofcharacteristic p. The genus is a well-understood invariant ofalgebraic curves, and the genus of C_n depends on n in a […]
Advisor: Dr. Michael Kirby Co-Advisor:Dr. Margaret Cheney Committee: Dr. Chris Peterson, Dr Nathaniel Blanchard Title: The Geometry and Topology of Learning Abstract: The /manifold hypothesis/ refers to the conjecture that high-dimensional data have low intrinsic dimension, meaning they can be expressed (without loss of information) with fewer parameters than the number of basis vectors that […]
Celebrating math major graduates
Mathematics faculty and graduate students are invited to attend the PhD Defense of Brenden Balch. You may also attend on Zoom Advisor: Dr. Patrick Shipman Committee: Dr. Chris Peterson, Dr. Clayton Shonkwiler, Dr. Richard Bradley, Dr. Hua Chen Title: Notes on pattern formation Abstract: We discuss two topics from pattern formation. The first part investigates […]
Advisor: Dr. Jess Hagman Committee: Dr. Rick Miranda, Dr. Liz Arnold, Dr. Gaye DiGregorio, Dr. Vincent Basile Title: Exploring the Situated Motives of Undergraduate Mathematics Education Stakeholders for Enhancing Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Abstract: As attention toward equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in undergraduate mathematics education increases, it is prudent to critically investigate how such […]
A former CSU student, Tucker Manton, who obtained a PhD in physics at Arizona State University and is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Brown University, is coming through town and agreed to give a special talk for mathematicians about his research. Title and Abstract: "Lie groups, symmetry breaking, and particle physics" This talk, given […]
Mathematics faculty and graduate students are invited to attend the PhD Preliminary Examination of Mats Johnson. Advisor: Dr. David Aristoff Committee: Dr. Olivier Pinaud, Dr. Margaret Cheney, Dr. Diego Krapf Title: Arbitrarily accurate, nonparametric coarse-graining with Markov renewal processes and the Mori-Zwanzig formalism Abstract: Stochastic dynamics are increasingly common in scientific pursuits, though fraught with […]
