This month, TPSE Math is convening leaders from across the mathematical sciences, higher education, industry, and partner organizations for the 2026 Modernizing Undergraduate Math Summit. The summit will focus on how undergraduate mathematics can better prepare students for an AI-infused, data-rich, and rapidly changing world. Participants will explore principles for modern undergraduate math, scalable course innovations, flexible pathways, quantitative reasoning, and strategies for coordinated national implementation. Special thanks to @Harvard, @HarvardMath for hosting. This is an invite-only working summit, but the work is intended to extend well beyond the room. Follow TPSE Math for summit updates, outcomes, and future opportunities to engage. #UndergraduateMath #MathEducation #HigherEd #AIinEducation #STEMEducation #EducationInnovation

Something working on right now. It deals with kernels of finite matrices. rank nullity appears as we teach in linear algebra youtube.com/watch?v=k2PYAOn5… Nice to work on something which is so close of what we also teach. Lots of open questions still however. quantumcalculus.org/fusion-r…

The m-th characteristic w(G) of a complex G generalizes Euler characteristic (m=1). The Green function g(X) of a k-point configuration is the signed value w(X)w(U(X)), where U is the intersections of the stars of X. Theorem:w(G) is the sum over all g(X). youtu.be/o3WJFiYGfjo
