Coloquio IIMAS Resumen The race to build a fault tolerant quantum computer is in fully swing.   But in which physical system should we encode quantum information?  In classical computers the winner was clear – transistors in silicon in the integrated circuit architecture.  For quantum computers the story is still be written.  Research and development...Read More

Coloquio de Matemáticas Aplicadas Resumen In this lecture I present results that stem from three sub-fields of nonlinear wave theory. In the first, I present a traveling wave analysis of Kuznetsov’s equation, a weakly-nonlinear, thermoviscous, acoustic model. In the second, kinematic shock waves (of zero thickness) are examined in the context of traffic flow modeling,...Read More
