SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Commutative Algebra: The F-Pure Threshold
DESCRIPTION:The F-pure threshold is a tool for classifying singularities of local rings in positive characteristic. In this talk\, we motivate and introduce the F-pure threshold\, compute some examples\, and (time permitting) discuss some generalizations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | From Structured Light to Optical Fiber Sensing
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I will overview two areas of my research at NEC Labs America\, Inc.: 1. Structured light 2. Optical fiber sensing. I will discuss  light beams that have spatially inhomogeneous state of polarization\, including their description on a so called higher-order Poincare sphere\, an associated Pancharatnam-Berry phase\, and their applications in optical communication and sensing. I will also discuss how exploiting Rayleigh\, Raman\, and Brillouin backscattering in optical fibers in combination with machine learning can enable distributed optical fiber sensing over existing telecommunication infrastructure. \n\nBio: Dr. Giovanni Milione is a Senior Researcher/Business Incubation Lead in the Optical Networking & Sensing Department at NEC Labs America\, Inc. in Princeton\, NJ. He received his B.S.\, M.S.\, M.Phil.\, and Ph.D. in Physics from Stony Brook University and CUNY Graduate Center/The City College of New York\, where he was an NSF Graduate Research Fellow.  He is currently Topic Chair for Optica/APS FiO+LS Conference\, the Industry & Applications Development Chair on Optica’s Board of Meetings\, and served on the Editorial Advisory Committee of Optica’s Optics & Photonics News. His recent recognitions include Stony Brook University’s 40 Under Forty. Giovanni is also a U.S. military veteran\, having served in the Iraq/Afghanistan wars.
