Mckay Graphs And Modular Representation Theory, Polina Aleksandrovna Vulakh
Senior Projects Spring 2016
Ordinary representation theory has been widely researched to the extent that there is a well-understood method for constructing the ordinary irreducible characters of a finite group. In parallel, John McKay showed how to associate to a finite group a graph constructed from the group's irreducible representations. In this project, we prove a structure theorem for the McKay graphs of products of groups as well as develop formulas for the graphs of two infinite families of groups. We then study the modular representations of these families and give conjectures for a modular version of the McKay graphs.

Integer Generalized Splines On The Diamond Graph, Emmet Reza Mahdavi
Senior Projects Spring 2016
In this project we extend previous research on integer splines on graphs, and we use the methods developed on n-cycles to characterize integer splines on the diamond graph. First, we find an explicit module basis consisting of flow-up classes. Then we develop a determinantal criterion for when a given set of splines forms a basis.
