Colloquium

The math department hosts a colloquium series in which distinguished researchers present their recent work to a general mathematical audience.  All faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students are welcome.

Organizer: Jeremiah Birrell

Algebraic Combinatorics Reading Seminar

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.

Differential Equations and Applied Math Seminar (DEAM)

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

Discrete Math Seminar

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.

Organizer: Jian Shen

Logic@TXST logo

Logic@TXST

This is a program designed to encourage research into mathematical logic at Texas State University and both the undergraduate and faculty levels, first by bringing in logic speakers to stimulate interest, and then fund subsequent research.

Times and locations of these talks will vary.

Organizer: Will Boney

Machine Learning Reading Seminar

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

Math & Stats Awareness Month

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:  Hiroko Warshauer
