The third edition of the International Symposium on Square Bamboo and the Geometree ISSBG will once again bring together specialists from different fields to inspire and learn from others. In previous years, we have offered a diverse program spanning logic, geometry, biology, differential equations, sounds, and music, and now astronomy/cosmology completes the quadrivium. This cross-fertilization has already led to new insights into the connections between the fields, helping us to answer the most important question in science: Why?
For the 2024 edition, we are organizing two full days with a special focus on two specific topics, biology and cosmology. They are linked because organisms of animate and inanimate nature adopt forms that are the best possible in an environment with which they are in constant contact, whether it is spacetimes, galaxies, flowers, starfish, molecules, or enzymes. New methods and insights will follow from mathematical viewpoints.
In the field of cosmology, physicists have developed a variety of models, but ultimately it is mathematics that determines the specific choice.
The cosmology program features various geometrical approaches:
Bang-Yen Chen: A brief history of cosmology and cosmological models of our universe
Alfonso Romero: Exploring the Willmore-Chen inequality for n-dimensional compact spacelike submanifolds in (n+2)-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski spacetime
Dishant Pandya: General Relativity and the Physics of Neutron Stars
Fidel Fernandez Villasenor: Finsler spacetimes and observers.
From this third edition onwards, more biology will be integrated in the program, hoping to achieve cross-pollination with maths and geometry. The program includes:
Sergey Petoukhov: Genetic Boolean-logical coding, cyclicity in the living organisms, and cyclic Gray codes. Collective algebraic-logical consciousness.
Antonio Di Nola, Revaz Grigolia & Ramaz Liparteliana: Modeling of Immune System using Epistemic Lukasiewicz logic
Weiwei Huang: Ellipse or superellipse for tree-ring geometries? Evidence from six conifer species
Geert Potters: Geometric changes in plants due to stress: a morphogenetic syndrome
Paolo Emilio Ricci: Laguerre-type population models and their parametric extensions
Matthew He: Mass-Energy-Information Equivalence, Gielis Transformation, and Circular Tai-Chi Motions of Mind
New mathematical methods and tools (also in technology) will continue to open the door to new developments in the study of natural organisms and phenomena. One aim of this symposium is to make these methods and tools accessible to a wider audience.
Ilia Tavkhelidze: The main differences between chordal and radial sections of Generalized Möbius-Listing bodies,
Silvia Licciardi: Deep Learning Architectures for Classification and Regression. A Mathematical Point of View
Diego Caratelli: Deterministic Constrained Synthesis Technique for Conformal Aperiodic Linear Antenna Arrays
Giuseppe Dattoli: The Le Roy function and its properties
Alessandro Curcio: Nearly cosine series, generalized trigonometric functions and jinc- functions: a note on the relevant generalizations and applications
Simone Brasili: Visualizing the wonders of numbers in Mathematics Education
ISSBG 2024 will happen on December 4 and 5, 2024
The program will be fully online via Zoom (exact times and login to be announced),
The lectures will be available on YouTube (for recordings of the 2nd ISSBG, see: (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqYB94v0LRmdwpKYw3Tj3P0rlSWMMrTTt .
