SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RCGD Winter Seminar Series: Hearing and Seeing the Other Side: Social Network Heterogeneity in the Era of Partisan Politics
DESCRIPTION:Politically heterogeneous social networks are considered a buffer against political extremism\, and exposure to diverse views might be even more crucial in the current highly polarized political climate in the US. However\, a consequence of this heightened partisan animosity may be that people avoid those very same heterogeneous networks that have the potential to contain hostility. We thus ask two intertwined questions: (1) to what extent heterogeneous political networks inoculate against outparty hostility? and (2) does political partisanship inform social relationships? \n \nUsing an original survey that includes experiments and novel social network questions\, we find that partisanship does not spontaneously come to mind and is not a high priority in determining everyday life interactions. However\, if provided information about partisanship\, people heavily use it in selecting their interaction partners. Moreover\, both close ties and\, even more\, acquaintance networks are quite politically diverse. Finally\, individuals embedded in heterogeneous social networks have significantly lower outparty hostility and are less likely to rely on partisanship when choosing future partners. We advance two mechanisms through which exposure to politically heterogeneous networks might reduce outparty animosity. Political discussions\, common with close ties\, help people understand others’ point of view — hear the other side –\, while exposure to a diverse network of acquaintances contributes to reduce misperceptions about outparty members — see the other side.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Bonus Question: How Does Incentive Pay Affect Unemployment Dynamics?
DESCRIPTION:This paper asks how flexible incentive pay affects unemployment dynamics. Intro- ducing general dynamic incentive contracts into a benchmark labor search model yields three results. First\, the response of unemployment to labor demand shocks is first-order equivalent in an economy with flexible incentive pay and without bargaining\, and in an economy with rigid real wages as in Hall (2005)—if both economies are calibrated to the same steady state labor share. Second\, with both bargaining and incentives\, wage cyclicality arising from bargaining dampens unemployment fluctuations\, but wage cyclicality due to incentive provision does not. Third\, calibrating the model suggests at least 40% of new hire wage cyclicality in the data arises from incentives. There- fore a standard labor search model\, calibrated to weakly pro-cyclical wages\, matches unemployment dynamics in our incentive pay model\, calibrated to substantially more pro-cyclical wages.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CJS 75 Time Capsule Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Monday\, March 27 for a workshop led by CJS alumnus Bradly Hammond!\n\nThis year\, the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies (CJS) marks its 75th anniversary. Every CJS anniversary has generated commemorative books\, brochures\, and videos that spotlight the center’s past while staking out new horizons for its work. Although not necessarily intended as such by the small groups of faculty and staff who made them\, we can think of these items as time capsules of CJS’s self-image and ambitions at different points in its history.\n\nThis workshop invites participants to reflect on those past time capsules\, and also to make an intentional time capsule to mark CJS’s 75th year. Guided by curricula created by the Detroit Justice Center for its Restorative Justice Youth Design Summit\, we will discuss and record our thoughts about such questions as:\n\nWhat is the purpose or intent of a Center for Japanese Studies?\nWhat does a generative and ethical Center for Japanese Studies look like?\nHow do you think CJS ought to be investing its resources 75 years from now? \n\nRefreshments will be provided. Registration for this event is required as space is limited. Please RSVP at myumi.ch/by6NW and contact us at umcjs@umich.edu with any questions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Electroid Varieties
DESCRIPTION:In the 2014 paper \textit{Electroid varieties and a compactification of the space of electrical networks}\, Lam compactifies the space of electrical networks and embeds the compactification in the totally nonnegative Grassmannian. This embedding reveals an elegant set of analogies between the study of positroids and the study of electrical networks. In particular\, restricting the positroid stratification of the Grassmannian to the embedding yields a class of electroid varieties indexed by matchings. In this talk\, we'll cover some background on positroids and electrical networks before taking a closer look at the structure of the stratification by electroid varieties.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ISRMT: Magnetization in the planar Ising model and orthogonal polynomials
DESCRIPTION:We will discuss a 'synthetic' proof of explicit formulae for the magnetization in the 'zig-zag layered' planar Ising model on Z^2 that is based upon an observation that the values of certain fermionic observables equal the coefficients of an orthogonal polynomial. (In the homogeneous case\, this version of classical proofs dating back to Onsager\, Yang and McCoy-Wu\, among other simplifications\, bypasses Toeplitz determinants as an intermediate step in the computations.) The main new result is a formula for the magnetizations in the m-th column of a layered model in the zig-zag half-plane via Hankel determinants constructed from the spectral measure of a certain Jacobi matrix that encodes interaction parameters between the columns. This result holds in full generality and leads to open questions on asymptotics of such determinants in several setups of interest. Based upon arXiv:1904.09168\, joint work with Clément Hongler and Rémy Mahfouf.\n\nA recording of the talk can be found at https://youtu.be/GFqcaH0JGe8

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Department of Physics Colloquium | Interactive many-body quantum dynamics
DESCRIPTION:Zoom link:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99916677200\n\nMeeting ID: 999 1667 7200\nOne tap mobile\n+16468769923\,\,99916677200# US (New York)\n+16469313860\,\,99916677200# US\n\nWhile many-body quantum physics has traditionally focused on the properties of cold matter in thermal equilibrium\, emerging noisy intermediate scale quantum (NISQ) platforms allow access to far-from-equilibrium dynamics with local space and time control over interactions. In this new era of “interactive quantum dynamics\,” a key challenge is to identify universal features of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics\, transport and many-body entanglement. In this talk\, I will discuss new types of non-equilibrium quantum phases of matter and phase transitions\, with an emphasis on the emergence of universality far from thermal equilibrium. In particular\, I will focus on the recently discovered “entanglement phase transitions” that occur in monitored quantum systems\, and separate phases characterized by the amount of quantum information that can be extracted from measurements. I will also highlight emerging connections between quantum entanglement\, quantum communication theory and classical statistical physics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Group\, Lie and Number Theory Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Title: Progenerators of Bernstein blocks\n\nAbstract: Let F be a non-archimedean local field and G be a connected reductive group over F. For a Bernstein block in the category of smooth complex representations of G(F)\, we have two kinds of progenerators: the compactly induced representation ind_K^G(rho) of a type (K\, rho)\, and the parabolically induced representation I_P^G(Pi^M) of a progenerator Pi^M of a Bernstein block for a Levi subgroup M of G. In this talk\, we construct an explicit isomorphism of these two progenerators. We also explain that the induced isomorphism between the endomorphism algebras is compatible with their descriptions in terms of affine Hecke algebras.
