Hello all,

Please join BSGS in welcoming Dr. Matthew Lamanna, assistant curator of Vertebrate Paleontology at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Dr. Lamanna will be speaking about "New Fossil Discoveries from the end of the Age of Dinosaurs in Antarctica" on Friday, December 1st at 4:00 PM in Irvine 159. There will also be a social following the talk at 5 PM.

Dr. Lamanna's research interests include Mesozoic continental vertebrate anatomy, paleogeography, paleoecology, systematics, and evolution. His main research emphasizes Cretaceous Dinosaurs of the Southern Hemisphere and the Mesozoic Evolution of Birds.

If you would like to meet with Dr. Lamanna during his visit, please email me (ct824310 at ohio.edu)<mailto:ct824310 at ohio.edu)> or Sam Gutherz ( sg658915 at ohio.edu <mailto:sg658915 at ohio.edu> ). We have 30 minute time slots available from 9 - 12 and 1 - 4 on Friday and a Graduate lunch from 12-1 in 103 LSB.


Cheers,
Cassie Thompson

Title: Dynamics of Two Unequal Clusters

Speaker: Kiattisak Prathom, Department of Mathematics, Ohio University

ABSTRACT:  This work grew out of the manuscript "Cells in Temporally Clustered Solutions Prefer to be Equidistributed" by Jan Rombouts and Todd Young.  This investigation focuses on the dynamics of the yeast cell cycle when there are two temporal clusters of unequal size.  The model assumes that time takes values on the circle [0,1] where 1~0, and there are two special  regions that correspond to segments of the cell cycle: A signaling region S=[0,s) and a responsive region R=[r,1), during which cells send and receive feedback, respectively. We investigated dynamics of two unequal temporal clusters by considering a Poincare map. In this talk it will be shown that if r-s <= 1/2, the Poincare map has a unique attracting fixed point; however, if r-s > 1/2, the Poincare map has an attracting interval of fixed points.
