Dr. Larry Harper Remembered

The Mathematics Department extends its deepest sympathies to family and friends of Professor Emeritus Larry Harper. Dr. Harper passed away peacefully last October. Dr. Harper was a great contributor to mathematics, an influential colleague and a friend to so many.

Microtutorials

UCR Microtutorial 2

The Microtutorials in Mathematics project team at UCR has conceived a new approach to producing a collection of micro-tutorials as supplementary instructional and learning materials. The intent is to assist the students and instructors to connect calculus with applications in various subject matters. The students could use them freely on any topics of their choice.  The videos are produced with follow-up questions to enable instructors to flip their classrooms if desired. For details, please visit its website: https://microtutorials.ucr.edu

6th Richard E. Block Distinguished Lecture in Mathematics
June 05, 2024 @ 4:00 pm
Skye 284
Bernard Leclerc Université de Caen, France   Real or Imaginary? These contrasting notions appear in several places in mathematics. Real or imaginary numbers, real or imaginary quadratic fields, real or imaginary roots in a root system ... In this talk I will consider new items in this list: real or imaginary…
Breaking glass optimally and Minkowski's problem for polytopes
May 15, 2024 @ 4:00 pm
Zoom
Jian-Guo Liu, Duke University  Motivated by a study of least-action incompressible flows, we study all of the ways that a given convex body in Euclidean space can break into countably many pieces that move away from each other rigidly at constant velocity. Assuming they satisfy a least-action principle from optimal…
