Strongly Chordal Graphs and Related Structures
Description Strongly chordal graphs were introduced by Farber in 1983, as a restricted class of graphs for which the weighted dominating set problem can be solved in polynomial time; the problem is NP...
Fractal Sets and Boundary Theory
Description We discuss how the boundary concept can be used to describe fractal sets. Two examples illustrate this: 1. Polynomial endomorphisms of C2 and their Julia sets; 2. Self-similar fractals...
An Axiomatic Approach to Numerical Approximation of Stochastic Processes
Speaker Henri Schurz Department of Mathematics, Southern Illinois University http://lagrange.math.siu.edu/Schurz/personal.html Description An axiomatic approach to the numerical approximation of...
A Liar Game for Adaptive Covering Codes
Description Covering codes, which are sets of Hamming balls which cover the discrete hypercube, have been studied in many settings, including betting on football pools with a fixed number of matches...
Development of Material Processing Simulation in TPTC
Description The presentation has two parts. One is about FDM application in the material process. The other is about FEM application ( only several slides). The diffusion equation of carbon...
Survey and Recent Development of WENO Schemes
SpeakerChi-Wang ShuDivision of Applied Mathematics, Brown Universityhttp://www.dam.brown.edu/people/shu/home.html Description WENO (weighted essentially non-oscillatory) schemes are high order finite...
Three-Dimensional Nonhydrostatic Overflows: Numerics, Dynamics and Stochastics
Description The thermohaline circulation in the ocean is strongly influenced by dense water formation in polar and marginal seas. Such dense water masses are released into the ocean circulation in the...
