SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Yiddish Leyenkrayz
DESCRIPTION:The Yiddish Leyenkrayz is a weekly reading group open to faculty\, students\, and the general Yiddish-reading public. We read classics of Yiddish literature\, but also rediscover lesser known texts in the original. We often read plays\, so as to divide the reading according to roles. Copies of the text are made available at each meeting.\n\nNOTE: Event details may vary\, please contact the Judaic Studies office to confirm.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Drawing motivation from the theory of dynamical systems\, traveling waves can be viewed as fixed points of a flow on an infinite dimensional manifold. As such\, the eigenvalue problem associated with linearizing about the traveling wave is often reduced to a boundary value problem of a linear non-autonomous ordinary differential equation on the line. In such problems\, one can use the geometry of vector bundles and the Grassmannian to recast the original (temporal) spectral problem as a geometric condition. I plan to talk about a couple of examples of how this technique has been applied\, first with some scalar-valued partial differential equations and then\, if time permits\, with systems.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geometry
DESCRIPTION:For a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension at least three\, we know that positive Yamabe invariant implies the existence of a conformal metric with positive scalar curvature. As a higher order analogue\, we seek for similar characterizations for the Paneitz operator and Q-curvature in higher dimensions. For a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension at least six\, we prove that the existence of a conformal metric with positive scalar and Q-curvature is equivalent to the positivity of both the Yamabe invariant and the Paneitz operator. In addition\, we also study the relationship between different conformal invariants associated to the Q-curvature. This is joint work with Matt Gursky and Fengbo Hang. Speaker(s): Yueh-Ju Lin (UM)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Seminar | Variations on a WIMP
DESCRIPTION:A stable particle with a weak scale mass and coupling is a well motivated dark matter candidate\; one which arises in a variety of models for new physics\, including the MSSM. Given the lack of clear evidence for WIMP signatures at direct\, indirect and collider searches\, we are motivated to look beyond the standard lore. In a model independent framework complementary to LHC monojet searches\, we discuss searches at high luminosity colliders for heavy quarkonium decays to dark matter particles with masses below the weak scale. Also\, we investigate unconventional MSSM parameter space by relaxing commonly made simplifying assumptions\, such as minimal flavor violation\, then reexamining constraints from direct dark matter detection and the associated nuclear physics uncertainties.  Finally\, moving from a single particle to a multi-component dark matter framework\, we consider the impact of many particles decaying in the early universe on the application of constraints from light element abundances and the CMB.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Musicophilia
DESCRIPTION:Explore the relationships between music\, neuroscience and neurological disorders (including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases)\, using clinical cases described by Oliver Sacks in his book Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain (please purchase or borrow the book). We'll discuss chapters from this book and learn a bit about nervous system anatomy and function. Bryan Singer\, Ph.D.\, is a research fellow in biopsychology at UM and a Science Communications Fellow for the Ruthven Museum of Natural History. He has also taught neurobiology at UM-Dearborn. This class for adults 50+ meets Fridays through October 21st.\nhttps://olli-umich.org/olli/index.php/member/ctlg/viewEventDetails/871

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss the combinatorial construction of the moduli space of stable tropical curves with labeled marked points\, as a generalized simplicial complex parametrizing marked weighted metric graphs\, with special attention to the representations of the symmetric group in its rational homology\, with the action induced by permuting the marked points. In genus 0 and 1\, these representations grow factorially in the number of marked points\, but carry a \"secret filtration\" whose graded pieces are representation stable.\n\nAlthough I will present the complex in question as a moduli space for tropical curves\, it has other natural interpretations\, e.g. as topological quotients of Culler-Vogtmann Outer Space\, Harvey's complex of curves on a punctured surface\, and Hatcher's complex of sphere systems\; and as the dual complex of the boundary divisor in the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of stable algebraic curves.  Hence the properties of this space and its homology have interpretations in each of these contexts.\n\nBased on joint work with Melody Chan and Soren Galatius. Speaker(s): Sam Payne (Yale U.)
