This Project Grant award, valued at $246,125 and awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences Program (CFDA 47.049), supports research at Carleton College aimed at advancing the theory of resolvent degree, a measure of complexity for solving polynomial equations. The key products and services to be delivered through this 2-year award include: 1) Developing computational techniques and improving existing theorems related to resolvent degree and adjacent...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) totaling $249,648 supports research on the relation between geometric and algebraic structures of groups. The award will fund the principal investigator's (PI) investigations into groups with geometric structures, focusing on situations where such groups have subgroups that exhibit undesirable geometric properties. Additionally, the PI will undertake efforts to broaden...
This $196,032 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports research on modeling disturbance and resilience in ecosystems and natural/social communities. The project aims to advance the mathematical theory of non-equilibrium dynamics, including generalizing resilience metrics beyond equilibrium states and investigating the impacts of periodic disturbances on continuous recovery processes. The research...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Mathematical Sciences provides $169,979 to Haverford College under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) from June 2022 through May 2025.
