Abstract

Three main topics were raised in this discussion session, which took place on the 19th of June at the NumHyp-2015 meeting: nonlinear resonance for 1D systems of balance laws, dispersive extensions of standard hyperbolic conservation laws, and the validation of weakly dispersive shallow water wave models. An introductory overview with many bibliographic references is provided for all these topics. Based on kinetic formulation, a numerical strategy that can overcome resonance issues is presented, and a well-balanced (WB) technique for Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations is outlined. This WB scheme relies on the spectral representation of stationary solutions.

On the Reconstruction of SAS from Other Triangle Congruence Criteria, Part II: Eliminating the Pons Asinorum

In the first part of this work we showed that, within a Hilbert plane deprived of the Side-Angle-Side axiom, the Side-Angle-Angle criterion, together with a ray correspondence principle [\textbf{RCT}], the existence of angle bisectors [\textbf{AB}], the congruence of supplements of congruent angles [\textbf{SA}], and the Pons Asinorum [\textbf{PA}], suffices to reconstruct SAS. We left open the question of whether [\textbf{PA}] is genuinely required alongside the other three principles, noting only a qualitative asymmetry in the nature of the principles involved. In this second part we answer this question: we show that \begin{equation*} \textrm{SAA},\ [\textbf{RCT}],\ [\textbf{AB}] \;\vdash\; [\textbf{PA}], \end{equation*} so that [\textbf{PA}] is redundant among the hypotheses of our main theorem, which improves to \begin{equation*} \textrm{SAA},\ [\textbf{RCT}],\ [\textbf{AB}],\ [\textbf{SA}] \;\vdash\; \textrm{SAS}. \end{equation*} The proof adapts an argument recently given by Donnelly, who reconstructs SAS from SAA together with an angle addition axiom and the existence of angle bisectors.

Chebyshev and garment cutting. Debunking some myths

In {\tt 1878}, Pafnuty Chebyshev presented to the {\it Association fran\c caise pour l'avan\-cement des sciences} {\it [French Association for the Advancement of the Sciences]} an article \cite{Chebyshev1878} dealing with garment cutting. According to Chebyshev himself, his interest was sparked by a lecture given by Édouard Lucas that he had attended in {\tt 1876} \cite{Lucas1876}. There is a second story on the origin of Chebyshev's interest in garment cutting according to which in the 1850s, being short of money, Chebyshev got himself a job as a consultant to a clothing factory. At the time of the Crimean War (1853-1856), there was a great demand for uniforms. Chebyshev was allegedly asked to optimize the use of fabric, and it was there that his interest in garment cutting was born. This second story appears to have its origin in a post by Clive J. Grant to MacTutor in 1996 \cite{Grant1996}. However, this contribution contains no references, and no other source of information that I have found offers any first-hand documentation to support this story. Our conclusion is that this second story is a fabrication, invented out of whole cloth.

Mathematics Graduate Training in the Age of AI

Generative AI changes the conditions under which graduate mathematics is learned, assessed, written, and defended. The central claim of this paper is that mathematics graduate programs should respond to the moment by clarifying what graduate mathematics education is trying to teach and assess. In most ways, the goals of mathematics education have not changed. Rather, with changing tools it has become more essential than ever to make clear the goals of mathematical training. We use the term mathematical judgment to refer to the capacity to evaluate mathematics (e.g., claims, definitions, examples, proofs, analogies, computations, uses of tools, research directions) as mathematically sound, useful, well-posed, and appropriately justified. The recommendation is to center training on mathematical judgment, and we examine possible policies for graduate programs in Mathematics to this end.
