This talk is in a similar vein. We will discuss a certain correspondence between Shannon entropy and continuous functions on topological simplices that satisfy an equation akin to the Leibniz rule from Calculus. The correspondence relies heavily on a particular operad, which is an abstract tool with origins in algebraic topology. A broad goal for this talk is to unwind this result and to share why the confluence of these ideas is both unexpected yet intriguing.<\/p>\n<p>Short Bio:<\/p>\n<p>Tai-Danae Bradley is currently a research mathematician at Sandbox AQ &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sandboxaq.com%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=6NyuSFeW%2BUyKoRLB3Zv6UwQifvGQRsyttG%2FUTg604nI%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sandboxaq.com%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=6NyuSFeW%2BUyKoRLB3Zv6UwQifvGQRsyttG%2FUTg604nI%3D&amp;reserved=0<\/a>&gt; and a visiting professor of mathematics at The Master&#8217;s University &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.masters.edu%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=GZpv%2ButtzvfXxGQ2tHtQqxlWboMGHoMSFkjIqvU4Ax0%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.masters.edu%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=GZpv%2ButtzvfXxGQ2tHtQqxlWboMGHoMSFkjIqvU4Ax0%3D&amp;reserved=0<\/a>&gt; where she helps\u00a0 run the Math3ma Institute &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmath3ma.institute%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=zQFvHX%2FSPO%2BqQLPZ9m1lPS37HYBHzxzr19tOA0l75Sc%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmath3ma.institute%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=zQFvHX%2FSPO%2BqQLPZ9m1lPS37HYBHzxzr19tOA0l75Sc%3D&amp;reserved=0<\/a>&gt;.<\/p>\n<p>She finished her PhD in mathematics in spring 2020 at the CUNY Graduate Center under the supervision of John Terilla &lt;<a href=\"https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fqcpages.qc.cuny.edu%2F~jterilla%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=3lRH0Jzcr503%2BCbo2XDQAiTzWEH3SngknbM2IOx882w%3D&amp;reserved=0\">https:\/\/can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fqcpages.qc.cuny.edu%2F~jterilla%2F&amp;data=05%7C01%7CTracieGrisim%40cunet.carleton.ca%7Ceb8fdfae34994497980f08db65e7e1e4%7C6ad91895de06485ebc51fce126cc8530%7C0%7C0%7C638215818817221054%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=3lRH0Jzcr503%2BCbo2XDQAiTzWEH3SngknbM2IOx882w%3D&amp;reserved=0<\/a>&gt; and spent some time\u00a0 as a postdoctoral researcher at X, the Moonshot Factory (Google X).\u00a0 Her research interests lie in the intersection of quantum physics,\u00a0 machine intelligence, and category theory.<\/p>\n<p>For more information please contact Colin Ingalls.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time: Friday, June 16, 3:30 &#8211; 4:30 PM (coffee starting at 3:00) Room: HP 4351 (MacPhail Room) Speaker: Tai-Danae Bradley, Sandbox AQ and The Master&#8217;s University Title: When Information Theory Meets Algebra and Topology Abstract: In recent years, a few surprising connections have arisen between information theory, algebra, and topology.
