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:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Michigan Wonderland Gems & Jewels
DESCRIPTION:Betsy Lehndorff’s jewelry is influenced by her life in Hubbard Lake in northeastern Michigan. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Energy & Environmental Economics
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nExposure to air pollution has adverse impacts on human health\, workplace productivity\, educational and a variety of behavioral outcomes. Motivated by research from medicine and psychology linking pollution to aggression\, we provide the first evidence of a causal link between short-run variation in ambient pollution and the commission of violent crime. Using the location of crimes and wind direction as a source of pollution variation\, we find that air pollution increases violent crime in both Chicago (by 2.2%) and the Los Angeles metro area (by 6.1%). Consistent with the literature on aggression and ambient pollution\, we find no effect on property crime. The results are robust to a wide variety of specifications and falsification tests. Back of the envelope calculations indicate that the cost of pollution-induced crime is comparable in magnitude to other outcomes studied in the literature and should be included in benefit-cost analysis of pollution abatement policies. Overall\, the results suggest that pollution may reduce welfare and affect behavior and decision making through an even wider set of channels than previously understood.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Translation Workshop with Diane Rayor
DESCRIPTION:Diane Rayor\, Professor of Classics at Grand Valley State University and author of six translations of Greek lyric and tragedy including\, most recently\, Sappho: A New Translation of the Complete Works (Cambridge 2014). The workshop is intended as an opportunity for participants to bring in translation questions\, issues\, or problems they encounter in their own translations (works-in-progress are preferred). Dr. Rayor will discuss translation strategies and share portions of her current translation project\, Euripides’ Helen\, which is supported by a Loeb Classical Library Foundation Fellowship.\n\nUndergraduates\, graduate students\, and faculty from any department are invited to attend. Those with translations they wish to discuss are encouraged to submit them in advance to Amy Pistone (apistone@umich.edu).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics
DESCRIPTION:Among a set of competitors for a single common resource\, the best will simply exclude the others. Yet in nature we can see astounding diversity of competing species. Do close similarities in species' response to the local environment primarily explain their coexistence? Or is this diversity possible because of differences between species that stabilize their coexistence? And if so\, what particular differences between species are important in particular communities? Some ecological communities lend themselves to experimental manipulation to begin to answer these questions. Yet for many other communities\, such as tree species in forests\, the logistical hurdles to this approach are daunting. Faster progress could be made in ecology if insight into biodiversity maintenance mechanisms could be gained from patterns exhibited in local ecological communities\, such as how coexisting species are distributed in their ecological traits and relative abundance. Hurdles that we need to overcome to be able to gain such insight include: 1) further developing neutral theory\, a quantitative process-based null model of community pattern resulting when species similarities are what allow their coexistence\, and 2) better understanding what patterns to expect when species differences dominate instead\, particularly in the context of stochasticity and immigration. My research aims to overcome these hurdles\, to provide better tools for analyzing observed pattern. Speaker(s): Annette Ostling (Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Combinatorics
DESCRIPTION:I plan to discuss how the location of complex zeros affects the computational complexity of partition functions. Partition functions are polynomials with positive integer coefficients enumerating various combinatorial structures (and typically originating in problems of statistical physics). This will be illustrated by the examples of the permanent of a matrix (\"dimer model\" in physics) and its higher dimensional versions (\"polymer model\" in physics)\, and\, time permitting\, the independence polynomial of a graph (\"hard core model\" in physics).
