Guiding Principles for Successful AI Integration & Agentic AI: The Next Step in AI Evolution
Full text linkAI has revolutionized various processes throughout the value chain. When taking a focused look at Marketing and Supply chain functions, however, the two largest retailers in the world, Walmart and Amazon, have led the charge towards AI modernity within implementation. With AI’s impact on business taking the forefront of the collective consciousness, innovations have seemed to emerge daily. Agentic AI is the newest “flavor of the month” that is promising to further optimize and provide value to businesses and their different needs. With this advancement in AI reasoning, the realm of innovative possibilities has expanded greatly. This in combination with the lessons learned from Walmart and Amazon’s effective AI implementation represents a promising way of further automating and combining marketing and supply chain functions
Some Interpolation Problems in the Projective Plane
Full text linkGiven some set of r general points in the projective plane, we want to better understand: what is the smallest degree of any polynomial passing through the points m times? How many linearly independent equations of this degree pass through the points m times? The investigation of these questions, particularly for the case of m=3 and r\u3c 16, motivates the development of several results. We translate Terracini\u27s inductive argument, a tool for evaluating the expectedness of certain sets of double points, into a version which can be used for triple points, and prove that the argument holds. We compute the minimal graded free resolutions for the ideals corresponding to up to 15 points, for m up to 6, and we conjecture a connection between the expectedness of these ideals and what their resolutions look like. Further, we prove that this conjecture holds when m=1, and we either fully or partially prove that these ideals are expected for certain sets of r general triple points, with r up to 13. These results are obtained using a variety of tools from commutative algebra, in addition to computations using Macaulay2

Talking with Dragons: How Dragons Reveal the Hero\u27s Heart
No full textThe author shines a light onto the transformation Dragons over time and their relationships with heroes in European narrative and art. The study provides primary source analysis as well as a review of the secondary literature as represented through the works for Frazer, Dundes, and Tolkien
Assertions of Monastic Identity and Power in the Cloister and Nave of St. Gall
No full textThe Carolingian monastery lived in an unresolved tension between the purity of separation from the world and the benefits to be gained from secular engagement. To confront this dilemma, the parts of the monastery received new layers of symbolic meaning, opening some spaces to lay penetration while shielding others more securely. Here I will examine the monastic cloister and the nave of the abbey church as instances of these two tendencies
