The department provides a wide variety of resources to promote collaboration, interaction and research within our community.
In this episode, we will continue to explore the origins of Koszul Duality. We’ll begin again with a reminder of what it means to find a resolution for a module/algebra, and then observe some “coalgebra-like”-behavior on the generators of such a thing. This will lead us to define “coalgebra,” and practice using co-generators and co-relations to build new examples of coalgebras. With these tools, we can make a precise statement regarding the coalgebraic structure inside the resolutions of algebras that we explored at the start.

A few small-scale examples will be calculated to illustrate how this method differs from traditional spectral and random-walk methods. We will then examine a series of clusterability ranking metrics that are able to discern between outcome, intent, and reliability of prediction. Combined, they are able to determine the degree of homophily of the data --- that is, does the data appear to have a human-like desire, or is it synthetic in nature?
The talk will include an assortment of data sets from my recent studies that will hopefully stimulate collaborative interest. Time permitting, I will discuss any open studies, computational bottlenecks, generalizations of the model, and applications to metamaterial construction in spintronics.

Organizer: Paul Dawkins
This seminar meets about once a week. The format is very informal, the idea is that we collectively select a topic for the semester and present material surround that theme. Original research is not typically presented and we encourage participation from all levels. Graduate students with an interest in algebra/combinatorics are especially encouraged to attend.
For more information or to be included in communication regarding this seminar please contact Anton Dochtermann.
The Differential Equations and Applied Math Seminar is a seminar for those interested in differential equations, mathematical modeling, mathematical physics, scientific computation, and any other interdisciplinary mathematical work of an applied nature. The speaker's topics are not restricted to their own work, as this seminar is a platform for presenting details of mathematics of interest. Interested faculty, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates are encouraged to attend.
Organizers: Ray Treinen & Nestor Guillen
All faculty, graduate students, and upper level undergraduate students are welcome. The seminar will provide a platform for faculty and students to present their research developments in discrete mathematics and related areas, foster research interactions among faculty and students, and create research opportunities and collaborations for faculty and students. Speakers from Discrete Mathematics, Combinatorics, Computer Science, and other related areas are all welcome. We are particularly interested in interdisciplinary research which applies mathematics as a tool to solve problems in other areas such as CS, BioInformatics, Bio‐sciences, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, etc.

This is a NSF funded project to increase logic research at Texas State. Part of this project includes a scheduled series of speakers for 2022 and 2023, with a symposium to be included in 2024.
Times and locations of these talks will vary.
Organizer: Will Boney
In this seminar we learn about the mathematical foundation of this technology and their rapidly expanding use in our world.
All interested faculty, staff, and undergraduate and graduate students are welcome.
Organizer: Christine R.S. Lee
Faculty and students learn about and discuss issues related to the teaching and learning of mathematics and new findings in mathematics education research. Graduate students in the Mathematics Education programs are expected to attend whenever possible; students from other programs are always welcome.
Organizers: Cody Patterson & Hamilton Hardison
This seminar is dedicated to sharing and discussing recent discoveries in numerical methods for real-life applications, such as medical imaging, weather forecasting, and epidemiology.
Organizers: Iván Ojeda-Ruiz, Young Ju Lee & Xiaoxi Shen

This is a seminar for students by students. Talk Math 2 Me provides students, both graduate and undergraduate, an opportunity to present anything related to mathematics to an audience of their peers. Undergraduate and Graduate math students or any students interested in mathematics are highly encouraged to attend. The talks are each 15‐60 minutes long and possible speaking topics include Undergraduate and Graduate mathematics research, math history, and STEM research with a heavy footing in mathematics.

In April, the math department runs a series of annual presentations aimed at illuminating interdisciplinary connections between mathematics and other areas. We host guest speakers, partner with other departments within the university and invite panelists whose work relates to the presented themes. All presentations are geared toward the general audience. Everyone is invited.
Organizer: Joanna Gutt-Lehr
