SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Art History I: Paleolithic Through Old Kingdom
DESCRIPTION:The first in a sequence of three introductory art history courses\, this study group will focus on works of art that demonstrate the ways in which artists documented their world. \n\nBeginning in the pre-historic era artists painted cave paintings and carved images on stone and bison horn. In the subsequent Neolithic time period\, technology and art joined to support the burgeoning agricultural society in the ancient Near East. The Sumerians\, Akkadians\, and Assyrians depicted their gods and religious rituals of their cultures\, as well as the wars and empires that rose and fell. Contemporary with the Ancient Near Eastern civilizations were the Egyptians. We will focus on early Egyptian art and one of their pyramids as well as later sculptures of the human form\, which became canonized and perfected in all media. \n\nInstructor Molly Lindner brings eleven years of teaching art history at Kent State University to this subject. The diverse knowledge of the participants will lend to a lively discussion of these fabulous works of art. \n\nThis class meets on Tuesdays\, from January 18 – February 22.  No classes on holidays.\n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.  A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Afghanistan Series. A Conversation with Sonita Alizadeh & Cara Cruickshank
DESCRIPTION:The third and final installment of the Afghanistan Series focuses on women in Afghanistan.\n   \nJoin us on Tuesday\, Jan 18th from 3-4pm ET for a Q&A with Sonita Alizadeh and Cara Cruickshank. Sonita will answer audience questions and speak about her advocacy for women’s rights and ending child marriage. Cara will talk about her advocacy for Sonita’s activism and for women in Afghanistan. RSVP: http://bit.ly/SonitaAndCara\n   \nSonita Alizadeh is an Afghan rapper and activist who has been vocal against forced marriages. Alizadeh first gained attention when she released Brides for Sale\, a video in which she raps about daughters being sold into marriage by their families.\n   \nCara Cruickshank’s work is centered on social ecology\, with an emphasis on diversity and inclusion. She is curator and host of artistic\, cultural salons and social justice panels through her production company Cafe de la Culture. She is also writer\, director\, and producer of poetic theater and independent film. Cara’s work has been received by audiences and institutions in France\, Turkey\, Brazil and throughout the United States. Cara has worked as a Broadway actor and singer\, youth arts mentor\, educational designer\, and residency teaching artist. A core theme of her work is the convergence of women’s stories\, multi-media arts and rewilding.\n   \n   \nMake sure to catch a free screening of the film *Sonita* before this event. The film is available now on-demand\, but views are limited to 60 views total - catch it while you can!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Exploring Long Range Dipolar Interactions: From collective dipolar spin dynamics and layer exchange to light-mediated interactions and Pauli-Blocking.
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/92167928842\n\nI will begin by discussing our theoretical proposal using dipolar molecules confined in two dimensions as a platform for robust generation of entangled states\, useful for quantum metrology and quantum enhanced field sensing. To this end I will discuss how we can understand the dynamics of the dipolar quantum gas in terms of a long-range highly-collective spin model in mode-space. The highly collective nature of the resulting model allows us to overcome challenges of losses inherent to dipolar molecules in bulk systems\, and results in dynamics robust to dephasing and thermal noise in the degenerate quantum degenerate regime.\n\nI will then continue by presenting recent experimental work developing the tool box required to prepare and probe molecules in layer geometries\, and our theoretical work on understanding the spin dynamics resulting from dipolar exchange. The dipolar interaction induced spin exchange between adjacent layers enables strong losses within layers\, allowing to probe the coherent exchange process via the measurement of the molecular loss. I will discuss how in presence of electric field gradients the spin dynamics can only be understood in terms of inelastic collisions between molecules in adjacent layers\, converting motional into internal energy during the exchange process. This part highlights how motional dynamics and spin dynamics are intertwined in this system.\n\nFinally I will discuss the interplay of light-mediated dipolar interactions\, atomic motion and quantum statistics in the problem of observing Pauli-blocking enhanced life-times of optically excited states in a 2D Fermi gas. I will present a theoretical framework developed to account for the main cooperative effects due to the dipolar interactions mediated by the exchange of photons\, and the statistics of Fermions enabling us to identify a favourable regime in which Pauli-blocking can be clearly distinguished from cooperative effects\, and present experimental observations in qualitative agreement with our theoretical predictions.\n\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:FMRI Speaker Series:  Neural dynamics of the primate attention network
DESCRIPTION:The selection of information from our cluttered sensory environments is one of the most fundamental cognitive operations performed by the primate brain. In the visual domain\, the selection process is thought to be mediated by a static spatial mechanism – a ‘spotlight’ that can be flexibly shifted around the visual scene. This spatial search mechanism has been associated with a large-scale network that consists of multiple nodes distributed across all major cortical lobes and includes also subcortical regions.  To identify the specific functions of each network node and their functional interactions is a major goal for the field of cognitive neuroscience.  In my lecture\, I will give an overview on the neural basis of this fundamental cognitive function and discuss recently discovered rhythmic properties that set up alternating attention states.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Marie-Christine Düker\, Postdoctoral Research Fellow\, Department of Statistics and Data Science\, Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The long-run variance matrix and its inverse\, the so-called precision matrix\, give\, respectively\, information about correlations and partial correlations between dependent component series of multivariate time series around zero frequency. This talk will present non-asymptotic theory for estimation of the long-run variance and precision matrices for high-dimensional time series under general assumptions on the dependence structure including long-range dependence. The presented results for thresholding and penalizing versions of the classical local Whittle estimator ensure consistent estimation in a possibly high-dimensional regime. The highlight of this talk is a concentration inequality of the local Whittle estimator for the long-run variance matrix around the true model parameters. In particular\, it handles simultaneously the estimation of the memory parameters which enter the underlying model. A simulation study and an application will also be presented. \n\nhttps://mariedueker.github.io/
