SUMMARY:Exhibition:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection
DESCRIPTION:Protecting Wisdom: Tibetan Book Covers from the MacLean Collection is the first major exhibition to examine the subject of Tibetan book covers. For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

SUMMARY:Other:UMSI Design Clinic
DESCRIPTION:At the Design Clinic\, we provide design advice and services to local start-ups\, non-profits\, and cultural institutions. Our committed group of students work with clients directly to conduct user research and testing\, create wireframes for websites and mobile applications\, and to provide recommendations for process and workflow design. Our students are available for consultations by appointment at our Help Desk hours.\n\nThe Design Clinic follows an apprenticeship model that focuses on hands-on-learning\, and mentoring.  Students are assigned a role based on their level of experience\, and work in teams to support and learn from each other\, while receiving support and guidance from Design Clinic staff\, and alumni mentors.\n\nFor questions about the Design Clinic\, please contact us at designclinic@umich.edu\n\nSchedule an appointment here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1nstaONMm_JEA1FTw5-UZj6mh6lpaEiaOG5JPVtzBCeg/viewform?edit_requested=true

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:Class / Instruction:The Love\, Lure and Lore of the Clothesline
DESCRIPTION:This class will help revive memories of the days when laundry was hung to dry outdoors – when folks went “online” without the Internet.  \n\nYou will see a display of laundry nostalgia.  Share laundry poetry\, personal stories\, the clothesline in art and the opportunity to view clotheslines in ways you never before appreciated.  We will also cover ethnic stereotypes in the laundry industry\, feminism\, industrialization\, cultural issues and you will learn why “solar drying” should be encouraged.  Let’s hang out together! \n\nThis class for those 50 and over will meet for two hours each on Thursdays\, October 27 and November 3.\n\nInstructor Anne Lawrence has been a clothesline historian and hobbyist for over 20 years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Econometrics
DESCRIPTION:Two-Step Estimation and Inference with Possibly Many Included Covariates Abstract:\nThis paper develops resampling-based inference methods for two-step estimators with many included covariates\, and applies these results to several treatment effect settings\, including Marginal Treatment Effects\, Local Average Response Functions\, and IPW under unconfoundedness.\n\nBootstrap-Based Inference for the Maximum Score Estimator Abstract:\nThis paper develops new inference results for cube root consistent estimators employing the standard nonparametric bootstrap. The results give\, in particular\, the first valid inference method based on the standard nonparametric bootstrap for the Manski's maximum score estimator.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commutative Algebra
DESCRIPTION:This is joint work with Florian Enescu. In this talk\, we extend the definition of Frobenius complexity\, introduce by Enescu and Yao\, to the setting of Cartier sub-algebras. Furthermore\, we show that\, under suitable hypothesis\, the Frobenius complexity is finite by showing an effective bound. As a corollary\, we obtain a proof of the finiteness of the Frobenius Complexity of R for a large family of rings. Speaker(s): Felipe Perez (Georgia State University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Analysis/Probability Learning Seminar
DESCRIPTION:We will continue our proof of Marcus-Spielman-Srivastava theorem. Last time we end up with showing that the characteristic polynomial of summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite deterministic Hermitian matrices is real and stable via the fact that stable polynomials are closed under restriction and under certain differentiation operators.\n\nThis time\, we will examine some convexity properties of real stable polynomials. As a result of that\, we can show that for summation of rank 1\, positive semi-definite random Hermitian matrices\, the maximal root of the expected characteristic polynomial is stable and nicely controlled when the expected trace of each summand is bounded. \n Speaker(s): Feng Wei (University of Michigan)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations
DESCRIPTION:In a recent work Sideris constructed a finite-parameter family of compactly supported affine solutions to the free boundary isentropic compressible Euler equations satisfying the physical vacuum condition.  The support of these solutions expands at a linear rate in time. \n\nWe show that if the adiabatic exponent gamma belongs to the interval (1\, 5/3] then these affine motions are nonlinearly stable\; small perturbations lead to global-in-time solutions that remain \"close\" to the affine solutions\, are smooth in the interior of their support\, and no shocks are formed in the process.  \n\nOur strategy relies on two key ingredients: a new interpretation of the affine motions using an (almost) invariant action of GL(3) on the compressible Euler system and the use of Lagrangian coordinates. The former suggests a particular rescaling of time and a change of variables that elucidates a stabilisation mechanism\, while the latter requires introducing new ideas with respect to the existing well-posedness theory for vacuum free boundary fluid equations. This is joint work with Juhi Jang (USC). Speaker(s): Mahir Hadzic (King`s College London)
