PADS Seminar: The Persistence Landscapes of Affine Fractals

Speaker: Lee Przybylski (ISU) Abstract: We develop a method for calculating the persistence landscapes of affine fractals using the parameters of the corresponding transformations.  Given an iterated function system of affine transformations that satisfies a certain compatibility condition, we prove that there exists an affine transformation acting on the space of persistence landscapes which intertwines … Continue reading PADS Seminar: The Persistence Landscapes of Affine Fractals

Math Logic Seminar: Stationary reflection and singular cardinals

Speaker: by Dima Sinapova (University of Illinois at Chicago) Abstract: Two classical results of Magidor are: from large cardinals it is consistent to have reflection at ℵω+1\aleph_{\omega+1}ℵω+1​, and from large cardinals it is consistent to have the failure of the singular cardinal hypothesis (SCH) at ℵω\aleph_\omegaℵω​. These principles are at odds with each other. The … Continue reading Math Logic Seminar: Stationary reflection and singular cardinals

Discrete Math Seminar: Sufficient Conditions for Perfect Mixed Tilings

Speaker: Eoin Hurley (Universität Heidelberg) Abstract: We develop a method to study sufficient conditions for perfect mixed tilings. Our framework allows the embedding of bounded degree graphs HHH with components of sublinear order. As a corollary, we recover and extend the work of Kühn and Osthus regarding sufficient minimum degree conditions for perfect FFF-tilings (for … Continue reading Discrete Math Seminar: Sufficient Conditions for Perfect Mixed Tilings
