Mathematics Colloquium – Mohammad Farazmand (NCSU)

Phillips Hall 332

Shape-morphing modes for solving PDEs with conserved quantities Abstract. I introduce shape-morphing modes for efficient and scalable approximation of solutions to time-dependent PDEs. Numerical methods typically assume the solution of a PDE as the linear combination of static modes, such as … Read more

Physically Inspired Mathematics Seminar – Mikhail Kapranov (IMPU)

Phillips Hall 383

Title: Perverse sheaves and resurgence. Abstract: Perverse sheaves provide a topological counterpart of regular holonomic D-modules, whose solutions are multivalued functions of certain restricted type. Now, much more general multivalued functions (on the complex plane C) have been studied in J. … Read more
