Abstracts for the MAA Undergraduate Poster Session Baltimore, MD January 18, 2019 MATHEMATICAL ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA Abstracts for the MAA Undergraduate Poster Session Baltimore, MD January 18, 2019 Organized by Eric Ruggieri College of the Holy Cross and Chasen Smith Georgia Southern University Dear Students, Advisors, Judges and Colleagues, If you look around today you will see approximately 350 posters and more than 550 student presenters, representing a wide array of mathematical topics and ideas. These posters showcase the vibrant research being conducted as part of summer programs and during the academic year at colleges and universities from across the United States and beyond. It is so rewarding to see this session, which offers such a great opportunity for interaction between students and professional mathematicians, continue to grow. The judges you see here today are professional mathematicians from institutions around the world. They are advisors, colleagues, new PhDs, and administrators. Many of the judges signed up when they registered for the conference, but there are also a number of judges here today who volunteered on site. Their support is vital to the success of the session and we thank them. We are supported financially by Tudor Investments and Two Sigma. We are also helped by the members of the MAA Committee on Undergraduate Students (CUS) in some way or other. They are: Emily Cilli- Turner, James Collins, Janine Janoski, Darci Kracht; Emille Davie Lawrence; Aihua Li; Sara Louise Malec; Rhonda McKee; Stacy Ann Muir; Andy Niedermaier; Pam Richardson; Peri Shereen; Hortensia Soto; and Violeta Vasilevska. There are many details of the poster session that begin with putting out the advertisement in FOCUS, making sure the online submission system works properly, and organizing poster boards and tables in the room we are in today that are attributed to Hortensia Soto (MAA Associate Secretary), Kenyatta Malloy (MAA), and Donna Salter (AMS).
