Using her stone cutting and silversmithing skills\, she takes on six subjects that impact her isolated world: water\, winter\, plants\, critters\, rocks and the heavens. Her work\, often representational and sometimes narrative\, challenges the idea of jewelry as a status symbol. Lehndorff was born and raised in Ann Arbor\, and lived in Colorado until 2012. She is a granddaughter of renowned architect Albert Kahn (Hill Auditorium and the “Old Main” U-M Hospital) and daughter of Dr. Edgar A. Kahn\, who headed the neurosurgery department at the U-M Hospital in the 1960s.

Other than having interesting properties on their own\, they are particularly useful because they measure the singularities of the ring. For instance\, Watanabe and Yoshida showed that\, under mild assumptions\, the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is one if and only if the ring is regular. Aberbach and Li proved that these facts are also equivalent to the vanishing of the higher Frobenius Betti numbers. In this talk\, we will discuss how to define these invariants for rings that are not necessarily local. We will also discuss how these global invariants relate to the local ones\, and how they still measure the singularities of the ring. This is based on joint work with Thomas Polstra and Yongwei Yao.
