SUMMARY:Presentation:MICDE Ph.D. Student Seminar: Kashvi Srivastava
DESCRIPTION:Topic: *Deterministic and Stochastic Modeling of Dynamical Systems in Chemical Kinetics*\n\nChemical reactions are ubiquitous in nature in the form of biological and physical processes. We use nonlinear ordinary differential equations to mathematically model these processes in the deterministic regime. If a given process occurs at disparate time-scales\, we can further reduce the number of equations to obtain a quasi-steady-state approximation of the system. In this talk\, we consider a significant mechanism in chemical kinetics called the Michaelis–Menten reaction and its different quasi-steady-state reductions. We focus on the challenges faced in applying classical reduction theory on the system and the conditions under which its reductions are valid in the stochastic regime. We make use of a stochastic simulation algorithm called the Gillespie algorithm to demonstrate the accuracy of the reduced systems and to disprove a commonly-accepted qualifier for the validity of the stochastic approximation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student DGT - Geodesics in Space of Kahler Potentials-Part I
DESCRIPTION:In this first talk of a two part sequence\, we will discuss some facts about the geometry of the space of Kahler potentials on a compact manifold. In particular\, we will discuss the relation between geodesics in this space and the homogeneous complex Monge-Ampère equation. There will be no prerequisites for this talk except a basic knowledge of manifolds.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Quran and the Sword
DESCRIPTION:This paper elucidates the willingness of an autocrat to push through institutional reforms in a context where traditional authorities represented by religious clerics are averse to them and where the military control the means of repression and can potentially stage a coup. We show that although the autocrat always wants to co-opt the military\, this is not necessarily true of the clerics. Exclusive co-option of the military obtains where the loyalty of the autocrat’s army is strong while the organizational strength of religious movements is rather low. Radical institutional reforms can then be implemented. Empirically\, the dominant regime in contemporary Muslim countries is the regime of double co-option where the autocrat resorts to a double-edged tactic: pleasing the official clerics by slowing the pace of reforms\, and ensuring the loyalty of the military so as to put down clerics-led rebellions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:MICDE Ph.D. Student Seminar: Jiahao Shi
DESCRIPTION:Topic: *Accelerating Stochastic Sequential Quadratic Programming for Equality Constrained  Optimization using Predictive Variance Reduction*\n\nWe propose a stochastic method for solving equality constrained optimization problems that utilizes predictive variance reduction. Specifically\, we develop a method based on the sequential quadratic programming paradigm that employs variance reduction in the gradient approximations. Under reasonable assumptions\, we prove that a measure of first-order stationarity evaluated at the iterates generated by our proposed algorithm converges to zero in expectation from arbitrary starting points\, for both constant and adaptive step size strategies. Finally\, we demonstrate the practical performance of our proposed algorithm on constrained binary classification problems that arise in machine learning.

SUMMARY:Other:Minor in Writing Virtual Info Session
DESCRIPTION:The Sweetland Minor in Writing is designed for undergraduate students who are interested in developing their disciplinary and professional writing abilities while pursuing their majors. It gives you the freedom to write about what matters to you while helping you develop as a writer and thinker.\n\nStudents currently in the Minor program come from all over the university bringing a wealth of diverse interests to the classroom. You might find a screenwriter sitting between a scientist and a musician or Kinesiology\, Business\, and Communications majors giving each other feedback on their writing.\n\nWith a Sweetland Minor in Writing you will earn a credential that certifies your writing expertise to prospective employers and graduate programs. You will also pick up new media skills designing and creating content for your electronic writing portfolios.\n\nIf you are interested in learning more about the Sweetland Minor in Writing from current students and faculty\, or have questions about the application process\, you can attend a Minor in Writing Virtual Information Session hosted on Zoom.\n\nThe deadline to apply for the Fall 2023 cohort is Monday\, March 20th at noon.
