Bernoulli Convolutions
This goup consisted of
Julia Davis, Michelle Delcourt and Zebediah Engberg and
was supervised by Neil Calkin, Jobby Jacob and Kevin James.
They studied
a combinatorial version of Bernoulli convolutions.

Taking the convoluted out of Bernoulli convolutions: A discrete approach
Discrete Bernoulli Convolutions:
An algorithmic approach toward bound improvement
Computing the Lang-Trotter Constant
This group consisted of
Jason Joyner, Lauren Huckaba and Joshua Schwartz and
was supervised by Neil Calkin, Kevin James and Ethan Smith. They studied
the Lang-Trotter conjecture and focused on computing the conjectured
constant to high precision.

Hypercubes Cut by Hyperplanes
This group consisted of
Rebecca Myers, Eric Reidl and Veronica Thomas and was
supervised by Neil Calkin, Kevin James and Bo Light. They
probabilities related to slicing the hypercube in n dimensions by
an n-dimensional hyperplane.
