President's Report
Newsletter Volume 43, No. 3 • mAY–JuNe 2013 PRESIDENT’S REPORT Greetings, once again, from 35,000 feet, returning home from a major AWM conference in Santa Clara, California. Many of you will recall the AWM 40th Anniversary conference held in 2011 at Brown University. The enthusiasm generat- The purpose of the Association ed by that conference gave rise to a plan to hold a series of biennial AWM Research for Women in Mathematics is Symposia around the country. The first of these, the AWM Research Symposium 2013, took place this weekend on the beautiful Santa Clara University campus. • to encourage women and girls to study and to have active careers The symposium attracted close to 150 participants. The program included 3 plenary in the mathematical sciences, and talks, 10 special sessions on a wide variety of topics, a contributed paper session, • to promote equal opportunity and poster sessions, a panel, and a banquet. The Santa Clara campus was in full bloom the equal treatment of women and and the weather was spectacular. Thankfully, the poster sessions and coffee breaks girls in the mathematical sciences. were held outside in a courtyard or those of us from more frigid climates might have been tempted to play hooky! The event opened with a plenary talk by Maryam Mirzakhani. Mirzakhani is a professor at Stanford and the recipient of multiple awards including the 2013 Ruth Lyttle Satter Prize. Her talk was entitled “On Random Hyperbolic Manifolds of Large Genus.” She began by describing how to associate a hyperbolic surface to a graph, then proceeded with a fascinating discussion of the metric properties of surfaces associated to random graphs. -
Computations in Algebraic Geometry with Macaulay 2
Computations in algebraic geometry with Macaulay 2 Editors: D. Eisenbud, D. Grayson, M. Stillman, and B. Sturmfels Preface Systems of polynomial equations arise throughout mathematics, science, and engineering. Algebraic geometry provides powerful theoretical techniques for studying the qualitative and quantitative features of their solution sets. Re- cently developed algorithms have made theoretical aspects of the subject accessible to a broad range of mathematicians and scientists. The algorith- mic approach to the subject has two principal aims: developing new tools for research within mathematics, and providing new tools for modeling and solv- ing problems that arise in the sciences and engineering. A healthy synergy emerges, as new theorems yield new algorithms and emerging applications lead to new theoretical questions. This book presents algorithmic tools for algebraic geometry and experi- mental applications of them. It also introduces a software system in which the tools have been implemented and with which the experiments can be carried out. Macaulay 2 is a computer algebra system devoted to supporting research in algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, and their applications. The reader of this book will encounter Macaulay 2 in the context of concrete applications and practical computations in algebraic geometry. The expositions of the algorithmic tools presented here are designed to serve as a useful guide for those wishing to bring such tools to bear on their own problems. A wide range of mathematical scientists should find these expositions valuable. This includes both the users of other programs similar to Macaulay 2 (for example, Singular and CoCoA) and those who are not interested in explicit machine computations at all. -

IDENTITIES AND BASES IN THE HYPOPLACTIC MONOID ALAN J. CAIN, ANTÓNIO MALHEIRO, AND DUARTE RIBEIRO Abstract. This paper presents new results on the identities satisfied by the hypoplactic monoid. We show how to embed the hypoplactic monoid of any rank strictly greater than 2 (including infinite rank) into a direct product of copies of the hypoplactic monoid of rank 2. This confirms that all hypoplactic monoids of rank greater than or equal to 2 satisfy exactly the same identities. We then give a complete characterization of those identities, and prove that the variety generated by the hypoplactic monoid has finite axiomatic rank, by giving a finite basis for it. 1. Introduction A (non-trivial) identity is a formal equality u ≈ v, where u and v are words over some alphabet of variables, which is not of the form u ≈ u. If a monoid is known to satisfy an identity, an important question is whether the set of identities it satisfies is finitely based, that is, if all these identities are consequences of those in some finite subset (see [37, 42]). The plactic monoid plac, also known as the monoid of Young tableaux, is an important algebraic structure, first studied by Schensted [38] and Knuth [23], and later studied in depth by Lascoux and Schützenberger [27]. It is connected to many different areas of Mathematics, such as algebraic combinatorics, symmetric functions [29], crystal bases [4] and representation theory [14]. In particular, the question of identities in the plactic monoid has received a lot of attention recently [26, 20]. Finitely-generated polynomial-growth groups are virtually nilpotent and so sat- isfy identities [16]. -

On the other hand, it is rarely the case that algebraic techniques are ready-made to address statistical challenges, and usually new algebraic results need to be developed. -
Coding of Geodesics and Lorenz-Like Templates for Some Geodesic Flows
CODING OF GEODESICS AND LORENZ-LIKE TEMPLATES FOR SOME GEODESIC FLOWS PIERRE DEHORNOY AND TALI PINSKY Abstract. We construct a template with two ribbons that describes the topology of all periodic orbits of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle to any sphere with three cone points with hyperbolic metric. The construction relies on the existence of a particular coding with two letters for the geodesics on these orbifolds. 1. Introduction 1 1 1 For p; q; r three positive integers|r being possibly infinite—satisfying p + q + r < 1, we consider the associated hyperbolic triangle and the associated orientation preserving 2 Fuchsian group Gp;q;r. The quotient H =Gp;q;r is a sphere with three cone points of an- 2π 2π 2π 1 2 gles p ; q ; r obtained by gluing two triangles. The unit tangent bundle T H =Gp;q;r is a 3-manifold that is a Seifert fibered space. It naturally supports a flow whose orbits are 2 1 2 lifts of geodesics on H =Gp;q;r. It is called the geodesic flow on T H =Gp;q;r and is denoted by 'p;q;r. These flows are of Anosov type [Ano67] and, as such, are important for at least two reasons: they are among the simpliest chaotic systems [Had1898] and they are funda- mental objects in 3-dimensional topology [Thu88]. Each of these flows has infinitely many periodic orbits, which are all pairwise non-isotopic. The study of the topology of these periodic orbits began with David Fried who showed that many collections of such periodic orbits form fibered links [Fri83].
