Dear Students and Fellow Colleagues,
It gives me great pleasure to announce the Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award winners for the Fall 2024 term.
Congratulations to Rudy Ariaz (MATH 242), Ruben Calzadilla-Badra (MATH 141), Edward Chernysh (MATH 254), Maxwell Kaye (MATH 223), Othmane Oukrid (MATH 223), and Aaron Shalev (MATH 242).
Honorable mention goes to William Holman-Bissegger (MATH 475) and Kevin Xiao (MATH 242).
Professor Henri Darmon has been elected to the 2025 Class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society (AMS).
"Forty-one mathematical scientists from around the world have been named听听(AMS) for 2025, the program's 13th year.听Recognized by their peers, AMS members designated as Fellows of the AMS have made outstanding contributions to the creation, exposition, advancement, communication, and utilization of mathematics".
Professor Christian Genest has been awarded the 2024 prestigious Parzen Prize.
Rosalie B茅langer-Rioux is the 2024 recipient of the President鈥檚 Prize for Excellence in Teaching in the category of Faculty Lecturer.
The President's Prize for Excellence in Teaching was established to recognize educators who have distinguished themselves both in their teaching abilities and in their ability to motivate their students.
Title: Can we geometrically sense the shape of a molecule?
Abstract: Can we hear the shape of a drum? This question was negatively answered decades ago by many authors including Gordon, Webb, Wolpert, who constructed non-isometric planar shapes that have the identical eigenvalues of the Laplace operator (Bull. AMS, v.27 (1992), p.134-138). The more general question: can we sense the shape of a rigid object such as a cloud of atomic centers representing a molecule?
