  Chemistry and Biochemistry Departmental Seminar Series

  12:30pm

  at Clendenin Building, CL 1009

  Speaker: Dr. Kostiantyn O. Marichev, Georgia State University
  Title: “Strain Release in Cycloaddition for the Synthesis of Heterocycles and Natural Products”
  Abstract: Cycloaddition reactions have been recognized as a robust method to construct carbocyclic or heterocyclic systems in a highly convergent manner through a concerted or stepwise mechanism since the original discovery of the Diels-Alder reaction. N-Heterocyclic compounds are considered “privileged structures” in pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry for their core structure being present in many biologically active molecules and building blocks. Hence, the development of efficient methods to achieve such heterocycles from low-cost starting materials has attracted considerable attention over the past decades. Our group is involved in exploring strain ring systems, pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, and other azine derivatives as potent precursors for the synthesis of such molecular frameworks because of their easy access. We have recently discovered dearomatization/rearomatization strategy as a new methodology for cycloaddition reactions of reactive azinium ylides with dipolarophiles for the construction of new heterocyclic systems.
  Bio: Dr. Kostiantyn O. Marichev received his B.S. in Chemistry in 2007 and his M.S. in chemistry in 2008 from Donetsk National University, Ukraine. He then carried out doctoral studies under the guidance of Prof. Nikolai. I. Korotkikh in organic chemistry at the L. M. Litvinenko Institute of Physical Organic and Coal Chemistry (IPOCC), National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine from 2008 to 2013. From 2013 to 2015 he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, Department of Chemistry. In 2016 he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Texas at San Antonio, Department of Chemistry. He then joined the department of chemistry at Georgia State University, where he is currently an assistant professor.

  Analysis and Applied Mathematics (AAM) Seminar

  1:15pm

  at Mathematics Building, D-224

  Speaker: Dr. Fumihiko Onoue, TU Munich
  Title: “Liquid drop model with nonlocal surface tension”
  Abstract: George Gamow introduced the liquid drop model of the atomic nucleus in 1928 to explain the behaviour of atoms. The classical model is more or less well-studied today, for instance, by Knuepfer and Muratov. In this talk, we extend this model into the so-called nonlocal liquid drop model with ''nonlocal'' surface tension. We also see some geometric aspects of this nonlocal model.

  2:30pm

  at Mathematics Building, D-250

  Speaker: Jonah Klein, University of South Carolina at Columbia
  Title: “Bounding the j-th smallest modulus of a covering system with distinct moduli”
  Abstract: A covering system is a finite set of arithmetic progressions with the property that each integer belongs to at least one of them. Ever since their introduction by Erdos in 1950, covering systems have attracted a steady amount of interest. Of particular interest has been the minimum modulus problem, posed by Erdos in 1950. Erdos asked if there is a uniform bound on the smallest modulus 藵 of a covering system with distinct moduli. In 2015, Hough showed that this is the case, and gave a bound of 10^16. In 2021, Balister, Bollobas, Morris, Sahasrabudhe, and Tiba modified Hough’s approach, developing a new method that they coined the distortion method. Using this method, they reduced Hough’s bound to 616000. The distortion method has seen a number of applications in recent years, one of which is the focal point of this talk. In joint work with Dimitris Koukoulopoulos and Simon Lemieux, we showed that the j-th smallest modulus of a covering system with distinct moduli is bounded by exp(c log2 (j)/ log log(j)) for some absolute constant c. In this talk, we will give an overview of the distortion method and its recent applications. We will then show how it was used, in conjunction with a theorem of Crittenden and Vanden Eynden, to obtain a bound on the j-th smallest modulus of a covering system with distinct moduli.

  Title: “Who's the GOAT? Sports Rankings and Data-Driven Random Walks on the Symmetric Group”
  Abstract:Given a collection of historical sports rankings, can one tell which player is the greatest of all time (i.e., the GOAT)? In this work, we design a data-driven random walk on the symmetric group to obtain a stationary distribution over player rankings, spanning across different time periods in sports history. We combine this distribution with a notion of stochastic dominance to obtain a partial order over the players. We implement our methods using publicly available data from the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) and the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) to find the GOATs in the respective categories. We conclude with potential uses of our methods for route planning in logistics. This is joint work with Gian-Gabriel P. Garcia.

  Putnam Exam Mathematical Competition Practice Session

  1:00pm

  at Atrium Building, J-217

  The  is a yearly math contest for undergraduate students around the United States. The competition is always held on the first Saturday of December; this year, it is on Saturday, December 7th. 成人直播 students will be able to participate in person on the Marietta campus.

   

  If you are interested in participating in the competition or attending any of the practice sessions, please or email Dr. Mikhail Lavrov.

   

  The Putnam competition is a very intense experience. To help you feel more prepared for it, and/or to help you decide if you want to participate, Dr. Lavrov will be holding several (much less intense) Putnam practices throughout the fall semester. No prior math competition experience is required. Familiarity with proof-writing (for example, via Math 2390: Introduction to Logic, Sets, and Proofs) is encouraged, but one of my goals with the practice sessions is to give you some extracurricular practice in proof-writing.

   

  As far as being prepared for the Putnam itself, by far the most important prerequisite is becoming comfortable with creative problem-solving: a skill that will serve you well in any field. The problems in the competition cover a variety of mathematical topics, but none of them are routine exercises; to solve them, you will have to explore, try things that don't work, develop insights, and turn those insights into rigorous arguments.

  at Clendenin Building, CL 1009

  Speaker: Dr. Wendell Walters, University of South Carolina
  Title: “Constraining Atmospheric Reactive Nitrogen Emissions and Chemistry in an Evolving World”
  Abstract: JAnthropogenic activities have significantly perturbed the global nitrogen (N) budget through emissions of reactive nitrogen (Nr), primarily in the form of nitrogen oxides (NOx = NO + NO2) and ammonia (NH3) from accelerated fossil fuel combustion and agricultural activities since the second half of the 20th century. These compounds have significant human health, climate, and environmental consequences, including forming fine particulate matter, influencing the atmospheric oxidation budget, and deposition of fixed N in sensitive ecosystems. Therefore, constraining Nr emission sources and their chemical, human health, and climate feedback are critical for future policy regulations but remain challenging. The stable isotope composition of Nr trace gases and aerosols are powerful tools that can provide information on several difficult processes to quantify using traditional approaches, including emission source apportionment,  chemical reactivity, and spatiotemporal deposition patterns. These novel observations, combined with concentration measurements, will help close the Nr atmospheric cycling gap, which will help validate emission and atmospheric chemistry models and significantly improve our ability to predict climate and ecological responses.

  at Clendenin Building, CL 1009

  Speaker: Dr. Justin Pratt, University of Rhode Island
  Title: “'Seeing What Works and What Doesn't': Insights into General Chemistry Students’ Studying Decisions”
  Abstract: Study habits questionnaires focusing on the study approaches students use, and the breakdown of time spent studying, have been primarily used to investigate chemistry student studying habits. While these quantitative approaches help understand student studying habits, little research has harnessed qualitative approaches to examine why students choose various studying approaches. Additionally, students’ studying approaches need to be better understood due to the disruption of education brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. To address this, the perspectives of 16 general chemistry students were investigated with interview questions focused on why students use specific studying strategies, their motivation and time management approaches, and how they adapt their studying based on failure or success. Inductive codes captured students’ perspectives directly, while deductive codes were created with Self-Regulated Learning, Cognitive Load Theory, and Desirable Difficulties as lenses to expand our understanding. Most participants described a lack of formal training in effective study approaches in their educational experience, leading to decisions being informed by beliefs rather than how effective study strategies are. When making decisions about using a strategy, students relied on their beliefs about a strategy’s ability to help them understand/learn and prepare them for an assessment, as well as specific suggestions from instructors. When discussing why students do not use strategies, they relied on multiple cues related to learning/content, effort, and previous experience, including not valuing a strategy, not knowing how to use it, and not needing it. Insights will be shared with implications for supporting chemistry student success.

  Discrete Math Seminar

  2:30pm

  at Mathematics Building, D-250

  Speaker: Alexander McDonald, 成人直播
  Title: “Distinct distances from points on a circle to a generic set.”
  Abstract: One of the most famous problems in geometric combinatorics is the Erdos distinct distance problem, which asks for the smallest number of distances which can be generated by N points in the plane. The distance problem was solved by Guth and Katz in 2010. If we modify the problem to instead count distances between two different sets of N and M points, the Guth-Katz argument can be adapted to give a bound which is best-possible if there are no other assumptions on the point sets. There are many interesting questions which ask if we may improve over this baseline bound given additional structure on the sets. In this talk, I discuss a result in the case when one set is constrained to lie on a circle, and the other is (essentially) unconstrained.
