Mathematics Colloquium --Trjitzinsky Memorial Lectures
4:00 pm   in 314 Altgeld Hall,  Tuesday, March 6, 2012

 Robert Ghrist (University of Pennsylvania)Sheaves and the Global Topology of Data, Lecture IAbstract: This lecture series concerns Applied Mathematics -- the taming and tuning of mathematical structures to the service of problems in the sciences. The Mathematics to be harnessed comes from algebraic topology -- specifically, sheaf theory, the study of local-to-global data. The applications to be surveyed are in the engineering sciences, but are not fundamentally restricted to such. Beginning with a gentle introduction to algebraic topology and its modern applications, the series will focus on sheaves and their recent utility in sensing, coding, optimization, and inference. No prior exposure to sheaves required. Robert Ghrist is the Andrea Mitchell Penn Integrating Knowledge Professor in the Departments of Mathematics and Electrical/Systems Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. A reception will be held in AH 314 immediately following the lecture.
