SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Positive cycles on Hilbert schemes of points
DESCRIPTION:Algebraic geometers are often interested in certain “positive” cones that one can associate to varieties\, such as the nef and effective cones. While traditionally studied in the divisor and curves cases\, cones of cycles of intermediate dimension have recently been the subject of much study. We discuss some results on nef and effective cones of intermediate dimension cycles in the case of Hilbert schemes of points. In particular\, we look at the Hilbert scheme of 3 points in $\mathbb{P}^3$. Our computation generalizes results of Ryan & Stathis and requires a careful analysis of the PGL orbits in the Hilbert scheme\, as well as a new basis of the Chow ring inspired by Mallavibarrena and Sols.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Democracy Against Workers?
DESCRIPTION:Webinar Link: https://myumi.ch/ww7q9\n\nCanonical models of democracy expect working-class people to be the main beneficiaries -- even the natural beneficiaries -- of democratization. Yet not all democratic systems deliver economic gains to average citizens. Even after they gain the right to vote\, very rarely do they become candidates for office and get to serve as the people's representatives. When is \"democracy against workers\" and how might we make it work better for working people? In this Democracy Week roundtable\, Nick Carnes\, Adam Dean\, and Noam Lupu discuss their book projects on these themes\, with Ann Heffernan serving as respondent.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at emergingdemocracies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
