Final Exam – Towards a Secure and Accessible Internet over IPv6
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 12:00pm
PhD Candidate: Hammas TanveerAbstractThe Internet is undergoing a major shift with the adoption of Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), a new protocol designed to mitigate the long-standing issue of IP address exhaustion. Unlike its predecessor, IPv4, which had a limited number of IP addresses, IPv6 offers a virtually unlimited address space. Although the expansive address space has its advantages, it has also introduced new challenges related to security and accessibility that remain poorly...
Operator Theory Seminar - Marc Moore; Department of Mathematics, University of Iowa
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 1:30pm to 2:20pm
Degree k Column Relations for Moment MatricesMarc MooreLet M(k) be the moment matrix associated with a complex moment sequence γ(2k). Let V ≡ V (M(k)) be the algebraic variety associated with M(k). That is, if p(z, z) is a polynomial which corresponds to a column relation of M(k), then V (M(k)) is the intersection of the zero locus of p(z, z) and p(z, z). If the rank of M(k) is equal to the cardinality of V , we say that the problem is extremal. In this talk, we show that if G is the Groebner...

Mathematical Physics Seminar - Zheyue Hang; Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of Iowa
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 2:30pm to 3:20pm
Resonances scattering in universal quantum computersZheyue HangThere has been a fast-growing interest for quantum computation in the context of high energy and nuclear physics. One important motivation is calculating real-time evolution in large Hilbert spaces which can be prohibitive with classical computers. It is possible to deal with the rapid oscillations of real-time evolution using quantum computers with a so far limited number of qubits. We have been able to measure phase shifts during...

Physics & Astronomy Colloquium - Israel Klich; The University of West Virginia, Department of Physics
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 3:30pm to 4:20pm
Quantum states, walks, tiles, and tensor networksIsrael KlichA major challenge of physics is the complexity of many-body systems. While true for classical systems, the difficulty is exasperated in quantum systems, due to entanglement between system components and thus the need to keep track of an exponentially large number of parameters. In particular, this complexity places a challenge to numerical methods such as quantum Monte Carlo and tensor networks. Here, exactly solvable models are of...

Curator Guided Tour of 'A Roll of the Dice: Symbolism in the Sackner Archive' with Rich Dana
Tuesday, April 15, 2025 4:00pm to 5:00pm
Join curator Rich Dana for a special guided tour of the current Main Library Gallery exhibition, A Roll of the Dice: Symbolism in the Sackner Archive. All are welcome to attend this free event.
About the exhibit:
In 1897, French Symbolist poet Stéphane Mallarmé revolutionized the world of graphic design with a single poem that forever changed the way we look at words. His work illustrated how text conveys meaning not only through words, but also as visual symbols that contain a deeper...
