A Distributed Linear Solver via the Kaczmarz Algorithm
Description:
Abstract: The Kaczmarz algorithm is a method for solving linear systems of equations that was introduced in 1937. The algorithm is a powerful tool with many applications in signal processing and data science that has enjoyed a resurgence of interest in recent years. We'll discuss some of the history of the Kaczmarz algorithm as well as describ...

Approximations to Classifying Spaces from Algebras
Description:
If A is a finite-dimensional algebra with automorphism group G, then varieties of generating r-tuples of elements in A, considered up to G-action, produce a sequence of varieties B(r) approximating the classifying space BG. I will explain how this construction generalizes certain well-known examples such as Grassmannians and configuration spaces...

Braids and Hopf algebras
Description:
The Milnor–Moore theorem identifies a large class of Hopf algebras as enveloping algebras of the Lie algebras of their primitives. If we broaden our definition of a Hopf algebra to that of a braided Hopf algebra, much of this structure theory falls apart. The most obvious reason is that the primitives in a braided Hopf algebra no longer form a L...

Decomposition of topological Azumaya algebras in the stable range
Description:
Topological Azumaya algebras are topological shadows of more complicated algebraic Azumaya algebras defined over, for example, schemes. Tensor product is a well-defined operation on topological Azumaya algebras. Hence given a topological Azumaya algebra $\mathcal{A}$ of degree $mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are positive integers, it is a natural questi...

Effective constructions in algebraic topology and topological data analysis
Description:
In order to incorporate ideas from algebraic topology in concrete contexts such as topological data analysis and topological lattice field theories, one needs effective constructions of concepts defined only abstractly or axiomatically. In this talk, I will discuss such constructions for certain invariants derived from the cup product on the coh...

Equivariant methods in chromatic homotopy theory
Description:
I will talk about equivariant homotopy theory and its role in the proof of the Segal conjecture and the Kervaire invariant one problem. Then, I will talk about chromatic homotopy theory and its role in studying the stable homotopy groups of spheres. These newly established techniques allow one to use equivariant machinery to attack chromatic com...

Graph Clustering Dynamics: From Spectral to Mean Shift
Description:
Clustering algorithms based on mean shift or spectral methods on graphs are ubiquitous in data analysis. However, in practice, these two types of algorithms are treated as conceptually disjoint: mean shift clusters based on the density of a dataset, while spectral methods allow for clustering based on geometry. In joint work with Nicolás ...

Gromov-Hausdorff distances, Borsuk-Ulam theorems, and Vietoris-Rips Complexes
Description:
The Gromov-Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces is an important tool in geometry, but it is difficult to compute. For example, the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between unit spheres of different dimensions is unknown in nearly all cases. I will introduce recent work by Lim, Mémoli, and Smith that finds the exact Gromov-Hausdorff distances be...

Homology crowding in configuration spaces of disks
Description:
Configuration spaces of disks in a region of the plane vary according to the radius of the disks, and their topological invariants such as homology also vary. Realizing a given homology class means coordinating the motion of several disks, and if there is not enough space for the disks to move, the homology class vanishes. We explore how cluster...
