Jordan Yoder won the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics Award for his talk at MathFest in San Jose this past August. His talk on his summer research was entitled “What do monosaccharides, lipids, and amino acids have to do with mathematics?”. The SIAM award is presented to students who give outstanding talks about applied mathematics.

Congratulations Jordan!

mckibben summer research

Professor McKibben and long-time colleague/mentor Dr. David Keck continued their 5-year study of stochastic evolution equations this summer by tackling a new direction, namely stochastic differential game theory. Simply put, problems in this area are extensions of the well-known “cat and mouse” pursuit-evasion schemes, childhood game of tag, and jet-to-jet dogfighting. The progress made this summer will be presented at various conferences this year. Recent work in this direction has been published in Stochastic Analysis and Applications, and Nonlinear Analysis.

See Professor McKibbens’s website for details.

The first department newsletter is now available.
