Perturbations in epidemiological models: When zombies attack, we can survive!
In this paper, we investigate the existence of stability-changing bifurcations in epidemiological models used to study the spread of zombiism through a human population. These bifurcations show that although linear instability of disease-free equilibria may exist in a model, perturbations of model parameters may result in stability. Thus, we show that humans can survive a zombie outbreak.

Guns, Zombies, and Steelhead Axes: cost-effective recommendations for surviving human societies
In pop culture, there are many strategies to curtail zombie apocalypses. However, it remains unclear what routes we should take to eliminate zombies effectively and affordably. So, we created a mathematical model to exam…

The problem of adversarial CNN attacks is considered, with an emphasis on attacks that are trivial to perform but difficult to defend. A framework for the study of such attacks is proposed, using real world object manipu…

Prompt compression is increasingly deployed in LLM agents to reduce latency and cost, but it also determines what the backend LLM ultimately sees. We show that, when trusted and untrusted inputs are compressed under a sh…
