SpeakerStephen Damelin IMA University of Minnesotahttp://www.ima.umn.edu/~damelin/ Description Many practical problems in elasticity, vibration, etc., when modeled mathematically, reduce to the matrix...
SpeakerMichael G RoecknerPurdue Universityhttp://www.stat.purdue.edu/people/faculty/roeckner Description We shall first review the connection between ordinary stochastic differential equations (SODE)...
Description The speaker will discuss the main ideas of applying infinite dimensional Morse Theory to find nontrivial solutions for semilinear elliptic boundary value problems.
Description Work with T. Bielecki, Y. LeCam , M Rutkowski We study the different models of credit risk and we present some cases where the hazard process approach is more efficient than the intensity...
Description Archimedean copulas have proven to be remarkably useful for modeling dependence in a variety of settings. In this talk we will survey important aspects of the theory of Archimedean copulas...

Description Visual stimuli produce waves of activity in the visual cortex of freshwater turtles. The waves can be visualized using modern imaging methods and have complicated spatiotemporal dynamics...
Description We investigate the nonlinear dynamics of subcritical instabilities in the presence of a feedback control. The control is based on a feedback loop between the linear growth rate and the...
