L-functions in Analytic Number Theory: Christine K. Chang

We will present a matching upper and lower bound for the right tail probability of the maximum of a random model of the Riemann zeta function over short intervals. In particular, we show that the right tail interpolates between that of log-correlated...

The chromatic polynomial of a graph G counts the number of proper k-colorings of G. In 1995, Stanley extended this concept to define the chromatic symmetric function of a graph, which lives in the ring Sym of all symmetric functions. Building on this...

The Moran process models the evolutionary dynamics between two competing types in a population, traditionally assuming a fixed population size. We investigate an extension to this process which adds ecological aspects through variable population...

In the colored asymmetric simple exclusion process, one places a particle of "color" −k at each integer site k∈ℤ. Particles attempt to swap places with an adjacent particle: at rate q∈[0,1) if they are initially ordered (e.g., 1 then 2) and at rate 1...

University of Washington
Influential work of Hodge from the 1940s led the way in using Gröbner bases to combinatorially study the Grassmannian. In this talk, we will follow Hodge's approach in order to investigate certain subvarieties called positroid varieties. Positroid...
