Forensic analyses are often concerned with identifying the spatial source of biological residue. Using recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies, dust collected from nearly any object can be shown to harbor DNA fragments from thousands of bacteria and fungi species which may be informative of the source of the dust. We show that...

In Numerical Algebraic Geometry, solution components of polynomial systems are characterized by witness points. Such nice points are computed efficiently by continuation methods.In this talk, which is joint work with Wenyuan Wu and Jan Verschelde, I will outline progress on extending these methods to Partial Differential Equations.I will describ...

This question appeared in a recent newspaper headline, but was based on a study involving only 14 people. How can we interpret the statistics behind headlines? What does statistically significant really mean? How do statistics get manipulated to further an agenda? The field of statistics is essential to understanding most current issues. It info...

The assemble-to-order (ATO) system is a classical model in inventory theory, where multiple components are used to produce multiple products. All components are obtained from an uncapacitated supplier after a (component dependent) deterministic lead time, while demand for the products forms a compound Poisson process. Assembly is assumed to be p...

A prominent concern, in the age of machine learning and data analysis, is that left to their own devices, algorithms will propagate - even amplify - existing biases. Common definitions of fairness are group-based, typically requiring that a given statistic be equal across a few demographic groups, socially identified as deserving protection. Suc...

This is the story of an unintentional immigration. James Fleming was an Irish sailor on a boat taking immigrants to New Orleans. In 1863, Confederate troops seized his ship, stranding him in the United States without money and leaving his relatives thinking he had died. He was able to move to Arkansas and make a living in his new, unintentional ...

Systemic chemotherapy is the main anticancer treatment for most kinds of clinically diagnosed solid tumors. However, the efficacy of anticancer drugs is often lower than expected or desired. Moreover, after a good initial reaction, the tumors often become non-responsive and resistant to the drugs. These impediments in anticancer therapy can be a...

Members of the Atlas Club, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Atlas Club was one of several Jewish social clubs in the Twin Cities operating during the early 1900s to the 1920s. The clubs were a response to the fact that "downtown" social clubs such as the Athletic Clubs would not admit Jews. The Atlas Club was absorbed into Gymea Doled in 1919.

We present a simple one-dimensional equation modeling slenderjets of a Newtonian fluid in Stokes flow. It would be desirable to have a prooflinking the asymptotics of surface tension driven breakup to the behavior of theinitial condition near the thinnest point of the jet. Despite the apparent simplicity of the equations, the problem is open. I ...

Traditional' hydrodynamic stability studies infer stability of a flow froma computation of eigenvalues of the linearized system. While this is welljustified for the Navier-Stokes equations, no rigorous result along these linesis known for general systems of partial differential equations; indeed there arecounterexamples for lower order perturbat...
