SUMMARY:Exhibition:Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project
DESCRIPTION:The Artist Pay Project is an anonymous journalistic series that examines how artists survive and thrive through anonymous money diaries. Developed by 2022-2023 Knight-Wallace and the Ford School's Center for Racial Justice Fellow Makeda Easter\, the series includes interviews with over 30 artists from various disciplines — including visual arts\, dance\, film\, and drag — to understand how much artists are paid for their work\, how work is priced\, and how artists feel about their overall financial security. Making it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project by Makeda Easter is a visually-immersive\, physical manifestation of this work\, advocating for both the value of art in our society and higher wages for working artists. \n\nMaking it: $napshots from the Artist Pay Project is sponsored by the U-M Arts Initiative and Impact Studio.

DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Touch
DESCRIPTION:Ericka Lopez is a visual artist born in Mexico and living in Los Angeles. Lopez lost her sight at an early age and is mostly non-verbal. This exhibition of tactile assemblage works and gestural coiled pots were created by the artist through touch and texture\, colored by memory. The works are sensory\, physical\, immediate\, reaffirming\, and deeply expressive. Viewers to this exhibition are invited to touch the work. \n\nDuring her residency\, the artist and her support team\, which includes her mother and translator\, will engage directly with students in the exhibition space\, offering a transformative experience based on human expression and connection through art. Because Ericka feels most comfortable when she is working\, she plans to make artwork with students as part of the class engagements with the exhibition.\n\nAbout Ericka Lopez\nBorn 1987 in Mexico\, Ericka Lopez has been making art at Tierra del Sol Studios since 2019. Working across ceramic\, fiber\, and mixed media constructions\, Lopez’s practice is centralized around her exploration of touch. Lopez was born with limited vision and is now completely blind. Lopez trained in massage therapy and previously volunteered at a soup kitchen when an encounter with Tierra’s ceramics studio shifted her trajectory toward fine art. Her masterful command of clay hand-building techniques enables Lopez to create intricate\, dynamic\, and organically structured coil vessels. Lopez’s works are informed by her finite recollection of color\; she requests specific shades and combinations of glazes that generate spontaneous\, distinctive surfaces when fired. This intuitive approach continues in her fiber wall works and mixed media sculptures. Utilizing punch rug embroidery\, Lopez creates abstract fields of yarn and found objects\, often repeatedly punching through the same area to yield densely layered sections. Lopez has learned to identify the color of her materials via scent and feel\, a process that is difficult to put into words. Her mixed media sculptures are created almost entirely by touch\, consisting of threads\, buttons\, beads\, fabric scraps\, and found objects instinctively stitched together using simple sewing techniques. Lopez hopes her works can be experienced through an inquiry of touch.\n\nEricka Lopez has exhibited her artwork at Laband Gallery and Tierra del Sol Gallery in Los Angeles\, CA. Lopez’s debut solo exhibition\, “Continuous Touch\,” was curated by jill moniz for Tierra del Sol Gallery in the Spring of 2023. She has had works acquired by notable private collections such as that of Beth DeWoody and by the Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum at UC Long Beach.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Astronomy 2024-2025 DEI Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"The Role of Peer Mentoring in Astronomy: LUMA as an Example\"\n\nPeer mentoring offers a unique and impactful approach to professional development\, fostering supportive relationships among individuals at similar career stages. Unlike traditional hierarchical mentoring\, which pairs a senior mentor with a junior mentee\, peer mentoring reduces power dynamics and creates a more egalitarian environment. This approach can be especially beneficial in academic and research settings\, where social and cultural factors may influence traditional mentoring dynamics.\n\nIn this talk\, I will explore the impact of peer mentoring in Astronomy\, highlighting the League of Underrepresented Minoritized Astronomers (LUMA) as an example. LUMA is an international peer-mentoring program specifically designed for URM women in astronomy\, physics\, and planetary science\, including graduate students\, postdoctoral researchers\, research scientists\, and faculty. I will outline LUMA’s mission\, structure\, and key programming\, underscoring why such peer-based initiatives are essential for fostering inclusivity and professional growth within underrepresented communities.

DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cross-Product Compatibility\, Lock-In\, and Market Power: The Case of Smartphones and Laptops
DESCRIPTION:This paper examines the role of compatibility across standalone technology products in anchoring consumers to brands. Through a novel experimental design\, I identify the causal impact of compatibility\, showing that participants’ willingness to pay for smartphones increases by 9% of their retail price when compatible with a laptop. I combine the experimental results with a smartphone demand model that incorporates compatibility with laptops to assess the welfare effects of (i) regulations mandating cross-brand compatibility (“open ecosystems”) and (ii) crossmarket mergers. I find that in 2018-2019\, closed ecosystems benefit Samsung by locking non-Apple laptop owners into lower-quality Samsung smartphones\, while the switch to open ecosystems boosts Apple’s smartphone market share. However\, in 2020-2023\, closed ecosystems benefit Apple\, as Samsung’s top smartphones are superior\, prompting Apple laptop owners to switch to Samsung smartphones in open ecosystems. In both periods\, consumer surplus rises due to lower prices and greater product variety in open ecosystems. A counterfactual merger between Samsung and HP\, Apple’s main smartphone and laptop competitors\, respectively\, results in lower smartphone market concentration but raises Samsung smartphone prices\, disadvantaging consumers who value compatibility less.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Stable matching as transportation
DESCRIPTION:We study matching markets with aligned preferences and establish a connection between common design objectives -- stability\, efficiency\, and fairness -- and the theory of optimal transport. Optimal transport gives new insights into the structural properties of matchings obtained from pursuing these objectives\, and into the trade-offs between different objectives. Matching markets with aligned preferences provide a tractable stylized model capturing supply-demand imbalances in a range of settings such as partnership formation\, school choice\, organ donor exchange\, and markets with transferable utility where bargaining over transfers happens after a match is formed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Tianyu Zhang\, Postdoctoral Research Fellow\, Department of Statistics & Data Science\, Carnegie Mellon University.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Nonparametric procedures are frequently employed in predictive and inferential modeling to relate random variables without imposing specific parametric forms. In supervised learning\, for instance\, our focus is often on the conditional mean function that links predictive covariates to a numerical outcome of interest. While many existing statistical learning methods achieve this with optimal statistical performance\, their computational expenses often do not scale favorably with increasing sample sizes. This challenge is exacerbated in certain “online settings\,” where data is continuously collected and estimates require frequent updates.\n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss a class of nonparametric stochastic optimization methods. The estimates are constructed using stochastic gradient descent (SGD) over a function space of varying capacity. Combining this computational approach with compact function approximation strategies—such as utilizing eigenfunctions in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space—certain nonparametric estimators can attain both optimal statistical properties and minimal (computational) space expense. Additionally\, I will introduce a rolling validation procedure\, an online adaptation of cross-validation\, designed for hyperparameter tuning. This model selection process naturally integrates with incremental SGD algorithms\, imposing a negligible extra computational burden.\n\nhttps://terrytianyuzhang.github.io/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Creating Figures for Scientific Publications\, From A to Z
DESCRIPTION:Creating a figure for your latest groundbreaking scientific publication requires you to take every step from A to Z. You can't skip a single one. But you can bring in someone to help! \n\nEven if that someone isn't me\, you will likely work with an illustrator or designer at some point to help communicate your research to a wider audience. This talk will address the main steps you can expect to encounter on your figure-creation journey\, and how to stay on track along the way. \n\nThere are numerous paths that will take you from ideation to a completed figure – but not all paths are created equal. How do you decide which way to go? How can you most effectively and efficiently work with an artist who is charging you by the hour? This talk is your roadmap.

Questions can be in any field as long as they are of broad interest to the research community and finding solutions can have a high impact on human health or understanding biological questions. Researchers from around the world can propose questions\, which the DREAM Challenge Directors then evaluate. Over 30\,000 individuals from around the world – with vastly diverse backgrounds and multi-disciplinary interests – have participated in or benefited from our Challenges.\n\nDr. Adi L. Tarca’s research interests lie at the intersection of computational biology\, machine learning\, and maternal-fetal medicine. He serves as a tenured Professor in the Center for Molecular Medicine and Genetics at Wayne State University (WSU). Previously\, until 2023\, he was the founding Head of the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Unit at the Perinatology Research Branch (NICHD/NIH). Dr. Tarca earned his PhD from Laval University\, Quebec\, where he developed methods for integrating qualitative prior knowledge into neural network training. After transitioning to bioinformatics\, he developed several methods and R/Bioconductor software packages for omics data preprocessing\, pathway analysis\, and predictive modeling. \n\nDr. Tarca’s machine learning pipelines for genomics have achieved top rankings in several prestigious competitions\, including the sbv IMPROVER Diagnostic Signature Challenge (2012)\, Species Translation Challenge (2013)\, Systems Toxicology Challenge (2016)\, and DREAM Single-cell Transcriptomics Challenge (2018). More recently\, he led the DREAM Preterm Birth Prediction Challenge: Transcriptomics (2019) and the Placental Clock DREAM Challenge (2024)\, pioneering efforts to develop predictive tools for obstetrical diseases. This year\, he joined the board of directors of DREAM Challenges\, supporting the community in advancing machine learning applications in biology. Dr. Tarca has published over 225 articles and patents\, with his work receiving more than 16\,000 citations (h-index 66).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Does a New Voice Channel Reduce Turnover: A Field Experiment on Employee Voice and Exit in U.S. Fulfillment Centers
DESCRIPTION:Kelly will share a working paper co-authored with Alex Kowalski and Hazhir Rahmandad.\n\nBuilding on the long tradition of research on employee voice and its potential impact on both employee and organizational outcomes\, we investigate whether a new voice channel impacts turnover in e-commerce fulfillment centers. A cluster-randomized trial compared hourly workers in worksites randomized to launch the new voice channel (Health and Well-Being Committees\, or HaWCs) with those working for the same firm in control sites. This participatory intervention involved a small group of frontline workers and supervisors who solicited concerns and ideas about safety\, work processes\, and other workplace stressors from the broader workforce and then developed and implemented improvement projects in response. HaWCs were an isolated change\, rather than one component of a newly adopted\, broader high-performance work system\, and they were implemented in non-union worksites\, raising questions about their likely impact. Using administrative data on the population of hourly workers in these buildings\, an intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis finds significantly reduced risk of turnover in HaWC buildings in the year after randomization. Workers in buildings where HaWCs completed more projects were even less likely to exit\, showing the value of voice in yielding visible improvements. HaWCs also reduced job exits over and above both pre-existing and new\, alternative channels for providing employee feedback to management\, suggesting their value lies not only in information flow but also in their participatory nature.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar / MCAIM Colloquium: PDEs and graph-based semi-supervised learning
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Graph-based semi-supervised learning is a field within machine learning that uses both labeled and unlabeled data with an underlying graph structure for classification and regression tasks. In problems where very little labeled data is available\, the classical Laplacian regularization gives very poor results. This can be explained through its PDE continuum limit\, which is an ill-posed elliptic equation. Much work recently has been focused on designing graph-based learning methods with well-posed continuum limits\, including the p-Laplacian\, higher order Laplacians\, re-weighted Laplacians\, and Poisson equations. \n\nIn this talk\, we will survey this literature\, and present our recent work on using Poisson equations for semi-supervised learning. We will present theoretical results which establish that learning with Poisson equations is provably well-posed at arbitrarily low label rates\, and experimental results showing that it outperforms existing graph-based semi-supervised learning methods on challenging data sets. We will also present some recent work on applications of Poisson learning to graph-based active learning\, where the goal is to select a training set with the most informative examples\, often in a sequential online setting starting at extremely low label rates.\n\nEvent will be in-person and on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/98734707290\n\nContact:  Selim Esedoglu

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | The Microstructure of the Schwarzschild Black Hole
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the microscopic structure of black holes has been a central goal in string theory. While significant progress has been made for supersymmetric solutions\, a key question remains: what is the microstructure of the Schwarzschild black hole\, the simplest solution in General Relativity? In this talk\, we will introduce a new approach to account for the entropy of the Schwarzschild black hole through branes and antibranes in string theory. We will explore recent progress in constructing Schwarzschild microstates in supergravity\, which appear as smooth\, horizonless geometries that deviate from the Schwarzschild black hole in the near-horizon region.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum bumpless pipe dreams (Combinatorics Seminar)
DESCRIPTION:Schubert polynomials are polynomial representatives of Schubert classes in the cohomology of the complete flag variety and have a rich combinatorial theory. In particular\, their monomial expansion is given by a bumpless pipe dream formula. Quantum double Schubert polynomials are polynomial representatives of Schubert classes in the torus-equivariant quantum cohomology of the complete flag variety\, but no analogous combinatorial formulation has previously been discovered. In this talk\, we will first cover the bumpless pipe dreams formula for double Schubert polynomials. Then we will introduce a generalization of the bumpless pipe dreams called quantum bumpless pipe dreams\, giving a combinatorial formula for quantum double Schubert polynomials as a sum of binomial weights of quantum bumpless pipe dreams. Finally\, we will give a sketch for the proof of this new formula.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry: From rigid analytic spaces to adic spaces
DESCRIPTION:In Math 731\, we studied Berkovich analytic spaces\, which are analogues of complex analytic spaces over non-archimedean fields. In this talk\, we will explore other approaches to non-archimedean geometry. Tate was the first to successfully develop a form of non-archimedean geometry. Here\, the basic objects of study are rigid analytic spaces. These are obtained by gluing maximal spectra of affinoid algebras endowed with Grothendieck topologies. However\, rigid spaces are deficient in points\, so several refinements have evolved. Raynaud treats rigid spaces as generic fibers of formal models over the valuation ring. Huber develops a new framework called adic spaces\, which are generalizations of rigid spaces. If time permits\, we will also discuss cohomology of these spaces.

DESCRIPTION:Racial and ethnic identities play a key role in shaping behaviors\, attitudes\, institutions and social structures. As such\, scholars across disciplines have been devoted to investigating how race and ethnicity feature in every aspect of social and political life. The purpose of I-REP (Interdisciplinary Workshop in Race\, Ethnicity and Politics) is to provide a space for scholars whose research centers race\, ethnicity and politics across a number of fields to receive critical feedback on the early stages of their work (especially graduate students)\, build community with other researchers who share similar interests and offer an opportunity for participants to collaborate on a joint research project within the working group.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Van der Voo Lecture - Mark Simons\, Caltech
DESCRIPTION:Saturn’s moon Enceladus is a primary target for the investigation of habitability elsewhere in our Solar System. This small moon is inferred to have an extensive body of water beneath its outer ice shell - at least below the South Polar Terrain (SPT). This inference is based on the observations of active jets feeding a large plume emanating from the SPT\, the detection of salts and silica particles in plume material and Saturn’s E-ring\, and the variations in geology seen between regions within and outside of the SPT.   The amplitude of forced libration experienced by Enceladus requires mechanical decoupling of the ice shell from the underlying core\, which in turn has been interpreted to require a global ocean underlying the ice crust.   We explore an alternative interpretation that does not include a global ocean but remains consistent with the observed libration and the gravity observations. The observed gravity field is consistent with a thinning of the ice crust at the SPT underlain by a confined regional sea.  Jet activity on Enceladus is documented to be modulated by the tides as Enceladus orbits around Saturn\, which we propose is driven by the interplay of strike slip motion on the Tiger Stripes with geometric complexities in these fault systems.  The importance of geophysical exploration of Enceladus to understand habitability is clear.  We discuss a variety of modern geodetic techniques that should be considered in formulating future missions to this fascinating moon.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR   Diophantine approximation on homogeneous spaces
DESCRIPTION:Let G be a Lie group\, L a lattice in G\, and H a closed subgroup of G.\nSuppose that L acts on the homogeneous space G/H with dense orbits. \nWe would like to measure how dense these orbits actually are\, or equivalently\, gauge the efficiency of approximation of a general point on G/H by a lattice orbit. \n    Departing from traditional classical Diophantine approximation\, we will \nAssume G to be a non-amenable group\,  for example the group of isometries of hyperbolic space\, or the general linear or affine group. \n    We will present a solution to this problem for lattice actions \non a large class of homogeneous spaces\, emphasizing a sufficient condition for when an optimal result holds\, and give some examples. The methods involve dynamical arguments\, and spectral methods applied to the automorphic representation. \n    We will then briefly describe the extensive scope of this set-up\, and explain some more refined problems related to equidistribution and discrepancy of lattice orbits\, as time permits. \n\n    Based partly on joint work with Alex Gorodnik and Anish Ghosh\, and partly on recent joint work with Mikolaj Fraczyk and Alex Gorodnik.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Occasional Lecture Series | Chinese Bronze Bell Chimes: New Discoveries and What They Tell Us
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/ny3eR\n\nTo gauge how 25 years of archaeological discoveries can shed new light on a given field of research\, Dr. Falkenhausen recently investigated new discoveries of chime-bells in China dating from ca. 2000 BC to 1 AD and compared the results with what he had written in a book that he published in 1993 before turning his attention to other subjects. He was able to correct a number of mistakes\, fill some earlier gaps in the evidence\, resolve some previously irresolvable problems\, and detect some previously unknowable complications. He has published the results in the form of three articles\; this lecture will summarize his main findings.\n   \n   Lothar von Falkenhausen is Distinguished Professor of Chinese Archaeology and Art History at UCLA\, where he has taught since 1993. He is also on the faculty of the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA\, of which he served as Associate Director from 2004 to 2014\, and he holds a concurrent part-time appointment as Visiting Professor (formerly Changjiang Chair\, 2017-20) at Xibei University in Xi’an (China). Falkenhausen was educated at Bonn University\, Peking University\, Kyoto University\, and Harvard University\, receiving his PhD in anthropology from Harvard in 1988. His research mainly concerns the archaeology of Bronze Age China\, focusing on large interdisciplinary and historical issues on which archaeological materials can provide significant new information. His major books are \"Suspended Music: Chime Bells in the Culture of Bronze Age China\" (1993) and the award-winning \"Chinese Society in the Age of Confucius (1000-250 BC): The Archaeological Evidence\" (2006\; also published in Japanese\, Korean\, and Chinese translations). A new monograph on the economic archaeology of Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age China is in press. Falkenhausen was co-Principal Investigator of an international archaeological project on ancient salt production in the Yangzi River basin (1999-2004) and has been serving as Instructor of Record of the International Archaeological Field School at Yangguanzhai (2010-). He has served on the Scientific Council of the French School of Far Eastern Studies (2005-2011) and on the US President’s Cultural Property Advisory Committee (2012-2020). He is a Full Member of the German Archaeological Institute\, an Honorary Research Fellow of the Shaanxi Archaeological Academy\, an Honorary Professor of Zhejiang University\, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, a Fellow of the American Philosophical Society\, and a Corresponding Member of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres (Institut de France).   \n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at chinese.studies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Presentation:QuantUM Speaker Series: Exploring Quantum Machine Learning: From Algorithms to Applications
DESCRIPTION:Join QuantUM for a speaker series covering quantum machine learning and quantum algorithms! We'll have food beforehand starting at 5:30 (across the hall in the Don Meyer commons)\, and our speaker will commence at 6:00 PM in West Hall 340.\n\nUMich PhD student Mohammad Aamir Sohail will speak on his research in quantum machine learning and quantum algorithms. The event is open to all\, targeted to undergraduate students\, and no background experience is required.\n\nAbstract: In recent years\, quantum machine learning has emerged as a promising approach for solving complex computational problems that challenge classical computers. In this talk\, we will explore the motivation behind QML and introduce fundamental concepts that make quantum-enhanced learning distinctive and powerful. Starting with an accessible introduction to classical versus quantum machine learning\, we will delve into the basics of variational quantum algorithms like the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) and Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA). We will discuss how these algorithms can be applied to real-world optimization problems and design a quantum classifier using variational circuits.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Vigilant Ground\" - Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance Senior Concert
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan Department of Dance presents *Vigilant Ground*\, a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance concert at the Performance Studio Theatre. Tickets are free and will be available at the door an hour before the start time. The concert features choreography and performance by graduating seniors Paige Ashley\, Anastasia Bredikhina\, Annie Laforet\, Madison Rogers\, & Mya Waple\, and lighting by Robert Farr-Jones. \n\nPaige Ashley’s *Tree Roots* is a combined solo and group work that explores our past selves through memories. Her solo work takes on the perspective of what it means to forget the past and the isolation that comes with this state of mind. In contrast\, Paige’s group dance brings with it a flood of memories from her childhood. Through moments of tenderness and love\, Anna Bodescu\, Alyssa Hernandez\, Stella Lansill\, Kennedy Marshall\, Megan Piagentini\, Claire Schick\, and Caitlyn Wade explore the idea that our present self is made up of every single past experience\, and to meet our present self is to also meet all of our past selves.\n\nInspired by the fast paced spycraft of the Mission Impossible movie franchise\, Anastasia Bredikhina’s *Rogue Nation* presents a high voltage ensemble work for six dancers. The cast\, Madeline Deck\, Emerson Forbes\, Bri Hicks\, Jessica Serres\, Brooke Shaw\, and Olivia Weber perform thrilling\, evasive physical maneuvers with a dynamism and stealth that promises to entertain and surprise. The dancers dodge and deflect obstacles while navigating intricate pathways around each other\, tapping into the renegade aspects of going rogue. In her solo work\, Escalate\, Anastasia explores self-discovery through the mindset of the mythological siren\, luring the audience towards her display of physical intensity. The idea of deceptive intentions plays out in captivating ways.\n\nAnnie Laforet’s group work\, *echoes of Him*\, explores the lasting effects of growing up catholic. The work breaks apart religious trauma and catholic guilt to find what lies underneath. Laforet and her dancers\, Cynthia Cao\, Leah Kropp\, Nathan Mannella\, Carly Perrino\, and Isabella Garber toe the line between heaven and hell to find what is right and wrong. Original projection art by Elle Schwinderson.. Laforet’s solo\, Mary’s World\, is a dance dedicated to Laforet’s mother\, Mary\, who overcame intense trauma after being hit by a car and left in a coma when she was just fifteen. Against all odds\, Mary woke up from the coma\, learned how to walk again\, and took her life into her own hands.\n\nMadison Rogers’ *Fight or Flight* touches on themes of survival and what it means to feel “safe” when confronted with environmental or psychological dangers. Dancers\, Eve Anderson\, Natalia Gomez\, Gabby Kiminyo\, Megan Piagentini\, Claire Schick\, Amelie Vidrio\, & Caitlyn Wade ask how we endure\, persist\, and outlast these challenges. In keeping the memories of her late father close\, Rogers’ solo explores the complicated way that fight-or-flight responses manifest in the body.  \n\nIn Mya Waple’s group\, *Channel Surfing*\, dancers indulge in a funky\, dream-like aesthetic that centers around a complex love story. Transitioning between live performance and film elements\, dancers Brooke Forrey\, Chloe Kim\, Curry Jackson\, Gabriella Walker\, Landrie Adams\, Madeline Deck\, Megan Piagentini\, Mallory McKenna\, Olivia Weber\, and Peyton Price\, will take the audience on a journey through time and space. Waple’s solo\, The Billboard Says…\, explores nostalgia and all its complexities. It captures the bittersweetness of reflecting on the past\, while simultaneously diving head first into what has yet to come.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jesus Christ Superstar
DESCRIPTION:Step into a bold new interpretation of Jesus Christ Superstar\, the electrifying rock opera that captures the final days of Jesus\, told through the eyes of Judas. Our production dives deep into the humanity of these iconic figures\, revealing how their relationships and decisions are shaped by the systems of power around them.\n\nIn an effort to create new opportunities and push boundaries\, many roles have been gender-bent\, allowing women and AFAB performers to shine in vocal parts that challenge and inspire\, while also offering a new lens on these characters. This approach breaks from tradition\, distancing the figures from their biblical origins and presenting them as complex\, relatable people.\n\nWe aren’t telling a biblical or historical tale here—this is Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s work of fiction\, and our production treats it that way. Any resemblance to real-life events or people is purely coincidental\, as every artistic decision was made to serve this story. Experience the rock opera that continues to challenge and inspire—like you've never seen before!

SUMMARY:Performance:John Proctor Is the Villain
DESCRIPTION:Written soon after the #MeToo movement entered the national conversation\, this momentous\, touching\, and laugh-out-loud funny play explores themes of trust\, betrayal\, and the abuse of power as experienced by a group of high school friends. Set in a small Georgia town where everybody knows everybody else’s business\, *John Proctor Is the Villain* focuses on the students in a high school literature class\, and particularly on a group of girls who have strong and sometimes complicated friendships with each other. As the students discuss Arthur Miller’s *The Crucible* with their beloved teacher Mr. Smith – and as they explore\, in an after-school club\, what feminism means to them – they begin to see echoes between this classic American play about the Salem witch trials and events unfolding in their world. As those events come to a shocking climax\, their assessment of the heroes and villains in *The Crucible*\, and in their own lives\, changes forever.\n\nWritten by Kimberly Belflower\nDirected by Halena Kays\n\nRecommended Ages: 15+
