#HMC #ComputerScience professor Lucas Bang has received the 2025 Undergraduate Research Faculty Mentoring Award from the #CRA Education Committee for his exceptional work with undergraduate students including mentorship, research and graduate school guidance. Read more at uqr.to/lb-cra.
Yay! Congratulations! When you know where you’re officially heading, I’m curious to hear!
From Feb. 27–28, the #InnovationAcceleratorLab for Data Science and Social Impact will be hosting the Driving the Impact of Data Science (DIoDS) conference at #HMC. The #DIoDS conference will explore how #DataScience can be leveraged responsibly to serve society. More info at uqr.to/2627h.
Pretty much the same! 😂😭
I got my first “I f@#*ing hate math” of the year from someone who asked what I do for a living 🙃
Happy new year!

HMC mathematics professor @arvm.bsky.social has received an NSF grant that will fund geometric combinatorics research. Vindas Meléndez & his students will collaborate on original problems, many drawn from Ehrhart theory, which studies the properties of polytopes. uqr.to/nsf-gcr.
Thank you! :)
Hey, it's me :)

Today was our last day of our research experience and I am extremely proud of my summer research students @hmc.edu!
Group one (Tito Cuchilla ‘26, Joseph Hound @claremontgraduateu.bsky.social, Cole Plepel ‘27, Louis Ye ‘27)
Group two (Cameron Ake ‘28, Spencer Lewis ‘28, Amanda Louie ‘28)
New preprint announcement! This is my FIRST paper with @hmc.edu students and a @claremontgraduateu.bsky.social grad student! Very proud of this paper and the students who worked with me this summer.
“Equivariant volumes of symmetric edge polytopes”

ok i am aggressively not a sports person, but this story by @dodecalemma.bsky.social is so cool! and the graphics were fun to work on :) www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...
Squirrels LOVE octahedra.
What is your favorite shape & why? For HMC math prof
@arvm.bsky.social it's a permutahedron, a symmetrical, convex polytope that exhibits many special properties. Read more about Vindas Meléndez's favorite shape & the key it holds to big mathematical mysteries on @sciam.bsky.social. uqr.to/arvm-sm.
Yuan Zhou talks at the #mip2025 about how to estimate the solid angle of d-dimensional cones, which corresponds to the proportion of Rd occupied by them, and which does not has a known closed formula for d > 3.
