SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Financial Fitness with UM Credit Union
DESCRIPTION:Women in Science & Engineering are partnering with a Financial Education Manager with the UM Credit Union to host a financial literacy event! We will cover a number of important topics for students related to money including:\n\n- Your Money Personality (how you view money)\n- Credit -- when and how to start establishing credit\n- Savings & Investing – strategies to help build a safety net\n- Spending – Needs vs. Wants & the importance of creating a spending plan\n\nThere will also be a time for Q&A at the end. Light refreshments will be provided. \n\nRegistration Link:  https://myumi.ch/Z6r2Z

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:2023 Helmut W. Baer Lecture | The Insidious Neutrinos\, Entropy\, and Gravitational Collapse
DESCRIPTION:This will be a hybrid event. Livestream Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lufAjs_V5Ys\n\nThe Insidious Neutrinos\, Entropy\, and Gravitational Collapse: what we learn about neutrinos\, beyond standard model physics\, and the creation of the elements\, from the collapse of massive stars\n\nThe weakest forces of nature team up to engineer the demise of massive stars\, compact objects\, and maybe the odd causal horizon volume in the very early universe. \n\nStars make a Faustian bargain with gravitation and the weak interaction: Energy generation and\, hence\, promise of a longer life\, in exchange for changing composition and the seemingly innocent loss of a little entropy through neutrino emission. It is a good deal for lower-mass stars like the sun. But the price proves to be too high for stars with masses in excess of ~ 8 solar masses\, where the neutrino emission-induced loss of entropy and the nonlinear nature of gravitation combine with the weak interaction and exotic nuclear physics to cause collapse of the cores of these stars to neutron stars or black holes. Stars with masses in excess of ~ 100 solar masses likewise are vulnerable to instability because so much of their pressure support comes from radiation.  \n\nIn fact\, the nonlinear nature of gravitation means that self-gravitating systems get into trouble whenever their pressure support involves particles moving near light speed. Such objects are\, in the words of my late research mentor\, “Trembling on the verge of instability.” \n\nThat means that very subtle influences\, from known\, standard model weak interaction processes\, but perhaps also from new\, beyond-standard-model physics\, can figure in the evolution of these objects.  Collapse to neutron stars or black holes is the inevitable outcome\, but clues about how these murders were committed may be found in nucleosynthesis (especially of the heaviest nuclei) and in the spectrum of remnant masses. \n\nWe will discuss how frontier issues in elementary particle physics\, especially those involving the mysterious and ghostlike neutrinos\, could figure prominently in what happens in these gravitational collapse events and their aftermath.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Markov Decision Processes with Controllable Observations
DESCRIPTION:Markov Decision Processes is a common mathematical framework employed in decision making to factor in uncertainty during the optimisation process. We explore variations to the standard setup which involve controlled observations. Exploration through the control of the quality and accuracy of observations is combined with the exploitation of the gathered information to maximise expected rewards. This differs from standard partial information setups\, where one has access to a stream of noisy information which is not subject to active controls. The trade-off is akin to the exploration vs exploitation problem in reinforcement learning. We demonstrate this idea of controlled observations by requiring a payment for observing at each instant\, in this case the value functions satisfy a system of quasi-variational inequalities\, and we discuss aspects of the numerical implementation with some numerical examples.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Arithmetic: Not Proving Fermat's Last Theorem
DESCRIPTION:In this talk we will not prove Fermat's Last Theorem\, which states that for $n>2$ there are no positive integer solutions to the equation $a^n + b^n = c^n$. There are many ways to not prove this theorem\, and our chosen method will be to explain a theorem of Ribet exhibiting 691-torsion in the class group of the 691st cyclotomic field\, and then explain why this ruins an otherwise perfectly nice strategy for proving the titular theorem. In the course of failing to produce a proof\, we will encounter class field theory\, modular forms\, abelian varieties\, and Galois representations. I will not presuppose knowledge of these concepts and this talk should be accessible to anyone familiar with number fields.
