The geometry of dimer models

David Cimasoni (2014)

Winter Braids Lecture Notes

Similarity:

This is an expanded version of a three-hour minicourse given at the winterschool held in Dijon in February 2014. The aim of these lectures was to present some aspects of the dimer model to a geometrically minded audience. We spoke neither of braids nor of knots, but tried to show how several geometric tools that we know and love (e.g. (co)homology, spin structures, real algebraic curves) can be applied to very natural problems in combinatorics and statistical physics. These lecture...

Lefschetz Fibrations and real Lefschetz fibrations

Nermin Salepci (2014)

Winter Braids Lecture Notes

Similarity:

This note is based on the lectures that I have given during the winter school Winter Braids IV, School on algebraic and topological aspects of braid groups held in Dijon on 10 - 13 February 2014. The aim of series of three lectures was to give an overview of geometrical and topological properties of 4-dimensional Lefschetz fibrations. Meanwhile, I could briefly introduce real Lefschetz fibrations, fibrations which have certain symmetry, and could present some...

Invariant measures and long-time behavior for the Benjamin-Ono equation

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We summarize the main ideas in a series of papers ([], [], [], []) devoted to the construction of invariant measures and to the long-time behavior of solutions of the periodic Benjamin-Ono equation.

Classroom Manipulative to Engage Students in Mathematical Modeling of Disease Spread: 1+1 = Achoo!

H. Gaff, M. Lyons, G. Watson (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

Infectious diseases ranging from the common cold to cholera affect our society physically, emotionally, ecologically, and economically. Yet despite their importance and impact, there remains a lack of effective teaching materials for epidemiology and disease ecology in K-12, undergraduate, and graduate curricula []. To address this deficit, we’ve developed a classroom lesson with three instructional goals: (1) Familiarize students on basic concepts of infectious disease ecology; (2)...
