Math-Bio: The Rainbow and the Brain

September 10, 2025 - 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm

ESB 4133

The rainbow and the brain have in common that frequencies are produced. In both cases there is a function of frequency, f, called the power spectral density (PSD). In both cases invasive investigation spoils the investigated object. This talk will describe using noninvasive ... Read more

Infinite and bi-infinite incipient clusters in high dimension

September 10, 2025 - 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm

ESB 2012

The incipient infinite cluster is a critical percolation cluster that is conditioned on being infinitely large. Even though the condition has probability zero, Kesten demonstrated the first such construction for critical two-dimensional percolation in 1986 through a suitable ... Read more
