Mathematics Association Competition Winners

Several of our sutudents and faculty attended the Louisiana Mississippi sectional meeting of the Mathematical Association of America on 16-18 February 2017 at Millsaps College in Jackson, Mississippi. Two of our students placed first in student paper/presentation competitions. Alex Fontenot placed first in the undergradute student paper/presentation competition. The title of his talk is Characterizing the Behavior of the Difference Equation x_n+1=(ax_n+b)(mod 1) (Ross Chiquet served as Alex's advisor).

Graduate Student Tang Studies Whale Populations’ Oil Spill Recovery

Tingting Tang's research was the subject of an article on the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) website.

When disaster strikes, responders look at how creatures in its path may be impacted to mitigate damage. Tingting takes the process one step further, using mathematical models to predict how long recovery may take. The creatures that Tingting focuses on are some of the Gulf of Mexico’s largest predators and most charismatic animals, beaked and sperm whales.

John Patterson receives David R. Andrew Scholar Award

Mathematics major John Patterson is the Spring 2016 David R. Andrew Scholar Award recipient.

John has been President of the UL Lafayette Math Society for two years, has worked on undergraduate research in Mathematics, and represented the Math department in the student team competition at the Mathematical Association of America Louisiana Mississippi regional conference three years in a row, where they placed second twice and first once. These are just a few of the reasons John was selected for this award.
