SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Moving from Career Success to Retirement Success
DESCRIPTION:For those anticipating retirement in the next 24 months\, this six-session group on preparing for a satisfying retirement will combine exploration of relevant topics with creative expression and supportive discussion. The focus of this group will be on the transition of retirement and the challenges that come with it -- from questions like \"How will I define myself?\" to “How will I establish priorities and spend my time?”\n\nThe series will help you plan for the non-financial aspects of retirement\, such as redefining who you are\, revisiting what is most important to you\, exploring new interests and opportunities\, and maintaining social connections. You will also learn about what researchers find makes for a fulfilling retirement.\n \nThis series has the capacity for 14 participants\, and is open to all U-M staff\, faculty and students\, as well as the general public.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Working Seminar on Geometry\, Dynamics and Topology
DESCRIPTION:It is a classical result that a discrete faithful representation of a surface group into PSL(2\,R) is determined by the lengths of the images of finitely many simple curves on the surface. More generally\, Dal'bo and Kim showed that a Zariski dense representation of a group into a simple Lie group G is determined\, up to automorphisms of G\, by the lengths of the images of all  its elements. We will discuss this result and a recent result of Bridgeman\, Canary\, and Labourie that a representation of a surface group into PSL(3\,R) in the Hitchin component of  holonomies of convex projective surfaces is determined up to conjugacy by the length of images of simple closed curves.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Future of U.S.-China Economic Relations
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Reception to follow.\n\nThis event will be live webstreamed. Check fordschool.umich.edu on the day of the event for viewing information.\n\nAbout the event:\nJoin former World Bank Chief Economist Justin Lin and Ford School professor John Ciorciari for an in-depth conversation on the future of Sino-U.S. economic relations. The speakers will discuss the state of the Chinese economy\, China’s evolving role in global markets\, how the U.S. economy factors into China’s economic outlook\, and how the two states can navigate sensitive macroeconomic issues.\n\nFrom the speakers' bio:\nJustin Yifu Lin is Director\, Center for New Structural Economics\; Dean\, Institute of South-South Cooperation and Development\; and honorary dean\, National School of Development at Peking University. He was the Senior Vice President and Chief Economist of the World Bank\, 2008-2012. Prior to this\, Mr. Lin served for 15 years as Founding Director of the China Centre for Economic Research at Peking University. He is the author of 23 books including Against the Consensus: Reflections on the Great Recession\, The Quest for Prosperity: How Developing Economies Can Take Off\, Demystifying the Chinese Economy\, and New Structural Economics: A Framework for Rethinking Development and Policy. He is a Corresponding Fellow of the British Academy and a Fellow of the Academy of Sciences for the Developing World.\n\nJohn Ciorciari is associate professor of public policy and director of the International Policy Center. His interests include international law\, politics\, and international finance. His current research projects focus primarily on the Asia-Pacific region\, and examine foreign policy strategies\, human rights\, and the reform of international economic institutions. He has served as a National Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution\, and as a Shorenstein Fellow at the university's Asia-Pacific Research Center. From 2004-07\, he served as a policy official in the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of International Affairs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry
DESCRIPTION: A complex projective variety is Q-Fano if it has klt singularities and the anti-canonical divisor is Q-Cartier and ample. Starting from dimension 2\, the anti-canonical volume of a Q-Fano variety can be arbitrarily large\, e.g. weighted projective spaces. Recently\, Fujita showed that an n-dimensional Kahler-Einstein Q-Fano variety has volume at most (n+1)^n. In this talk\, I will discuss a refinement of Fujita's volume upper bounds involving invariants of the local singularities. If time permits\, I will also talk about an equivalent relation between K-semistability and de Fernex-Ein-Mustata type inequalities. Part of this work is joint with Chi Li.
