• Algebra, Geometry and Topology of ERK Enzyme Kinetics

    CMSA 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    Speaker: Heather Harrington (University of Oxford) Title: Algebra, Geometry and Topology of ERK Enzyme Kinetics Abstract: In this talk I will analyse ERK time course data by developing mathematical models of enzyme kinetics. I will present how we can use differential algebra and geometry for model identifiability and topological data analysis to study these the wild type dynamics of ERK […]

  • Communication Complexity of Randomness Manipulation

    CMSA 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    Speaker: Madhu Sudan (Harvard) Title: Communication Complexity of Randomness Manipulation Abstract: The task of manipulating randomness has been a subject of intense investigation in the theory of computer science. The classical definition of this task consider a single processor massaging random samples from an unknown source and trying to convert it into a sequence of uniform independent bits.  In […]
