Hysteresis, a phenomenon in which the response of a system lags behind and depends on its past history, has been used to understand various psychosocial phenomena, including abrupt shifts in opinion dynamics, political polarization, and more. The aim...

In this talk, I will present a new mathematical formalism of geometric bulk-surface partial differential equations (G-BS-PDEs) for studying mechanisms for 2- and 3-D single and collective cell migration. This formalism allows us to study both intra-...

In 1770 Euler observed that $3^3+4^3+5^3=6^3$ and asked if there was another perfect power that equals the sum of consecutive cubes. This captivated the attention of many important mathematicians, such as Cunningham, Catalan, Genocchi and Lucas. In...

Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have received much attention recently due to their potential for high-performance computations for complex physical systems, including data-based computing, systems with unknown parameters, and others. However...

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is ubiquitous in nature and occurs at molecular to environmental scales, from the writhing of DNA in nucleoplasm, to the beating of cilia and flagella and the projection of lamellipodia and bleb-like protrusions by...

In this talk, we will discuss a well-known formula of Ramanujan and its relationship with the partial sums of the Möbius function. Under some conjectures, we analyze a finer structure of the involved terms. It is a joint work with Steven M. Gonek...
