All graduate students and faculty are welcome! Pizza will be provided during the presentation. It is an opportunity for students to sample the course materials and ask questions to the instructors before they submit Graduate Student Survey Form on Friday, Oct 21, 2022. In this exhibition, some of the Faculty members who plan to teach elective graduate courses including MTH 534, MTH 633, MTH 634, MTH 643, MTH 725 and MTH 737 will give a short presentation about the topics to be covered in the course.

Title: Fall23-Spring24 Graduate Courses Exhibition Speaker: Faculty of Mathematics (October 13, 2022) This is joint work with Yoav Len and Felix Roehrle. I will also describe the tropical version of a classical algebraic construction, the trigonal construction of Recillas. I will derive a formula for the volume of the Prym variety. This is a real torus that records those cycles on the source graph that vanish on the target graph. I will talk about the tropical version of an important construction in algebraic geometry: the tropical Prym variety of a double cover of metric graphs.


The Jacobian of a metric graph is a real torus that records the intersection numbers of the cycles on the graph. The tropical analogue of an algebraic curve is a metric graph. The aim of tropical algebraic geometry is to find polyhedral, piecewise-linear analogues of algebro-geometric objects. Title: Tropical Jacobians and Prym varieties Speaker: Dmitry Zakharov (October 4, 2022) Tien Chih, and parts were developed in collaboration with Fort Lewis College undergraduate students as part of a CURM funded research project. No prior knowledge of either homotopy theory or graph theory will be needed, and many examples and pictures will be given. We will explore the properties of these deformations by looking at the 'fundamental group' of the graph created from homotopy classes of walks. We will see how we can use a little category theory to define a notion of homotopy for graphs, creating an analogous concept of discrete deformations. In this talk, we will explore how this translates to the discrete category of graphs. Homotopy theory studies deformations of geometric objects, an inherently continuous concept. Speaker: Laura Scull (September 29, 2022) (That is, the system that replaces the old green/blue/pink forms.) This system is needed to do MCS updates/changes, etc. Kristi Wood, Associate Director/Curricular Process & Systems in CIS, will give our department training on the new Curriculm Strategy system for the curricular workflow.
