MATH 220B: Computational Methods of Applied Mathematics (CME 306)

Numerical methods for solving elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic partial differential equations. Algorithms for gradient and Hamiltonian systems. Algorithms for stochastic differential equations and Monte Carlo methods. Algorithms for computational harmonic analysis. Prerequisites: advanced undergraduate level PDE and advanced undergraduate level numerical analysis. Note: Undergraduates require instructor permission to enroll.

MATH 221B: Mathematical Methods of Imaging

This is a project based course where the first half is an introduction to imaging: coherent and incoherent, passive and active, migration, time-reversal and optimization-based imaging, with applications to ultrasound, radar, sonar and seismic imaging. The projects come from a close study of recent papers that use neural networks for imaging when large data sets are available and some special applications such as satellite imaging.

MATH 231: Mathematics and Statistics of Gambling (STATS 334)

Probability and statistics are founded on the study of games of chance. Nowadays, gambling (in casinos, sports and the Internet) is a huge business. This course addresses practical and theoretical aspects. Topics covered: mathematics of basic random phenomena (physics of coin tossing and roulette, analysis of various methods of shuffling cards), odds in popular games, card counting, optimal tournament play, practical problems of random number generation. Prerequisites: Statistics 116 and 200.
