The study of the vibrations in domains with boundaries or interfaces of irregular geometry is a complex mathematical problem, for which many questions are still unsolved. Nevertheless, it has been known for a long time that objects of irregular shape or geometry are “bad resonators”. […]
Early life influences adult diseases. Such serious public health priorities as diabetes, heart disease, breast and prostate cancer, osteoporosis, and depression have all been related by recent medical studies to the development of the fetus. Environmental influences, such as maternal diseases, can cause irreversible metabolic […]
A breakthrough in the sparse representation of data was made in the Fall of 2004 by David Donoho and by Emmanuel Candes and Terence Tao, in part at IPAM’s Multiscale Geometry and Analysis program. Their important results reduce a computationally difficult problem to an easily […]
