March 13, 2026, 3PM Eastern: Dwight Anderson Williams II (Morgan State University)
- Title: Navigating mathematical and political structures (Navigating MAPS): A perspective on the works of Black researchers in theoretical mathematics.
- Abstract: This talk is a reflection on the influence of Black mathematicians and their works (including the 1980 book titled the same) in shaping my present/early career as a research mathematician. The impact of primary sources, cited stories, and personal communication is gauged by three themes: institutional memory, subversion, and point-of-contact. The talk also features contributions by Black mathematicians toward promoting, progressing and preserving mathematical ideas central to my professional development, current research in the representation theory of Lie superalgebras, and dissemination of mathematics to graduate students.
