SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Pseudo-magnetism in a strained discrete honeycomb lattice
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Slowly-varying nonuniform strain in honeycomb media can generate an effective pseudo-magnetic field\, even though the underlying medium is non-magnetic. This phenomenon was first discovered in graphene and later in photonic crystals\, and other physical settings. In this talk\, I will start from a discrete nearest-neighbor tight-binding model for a nonuniformly strained honeycomb medium. I will then show how this model leads to a continuum magnetic Dirac Hamiltonian that describes wave packets concentrated near a Dirac point of the undeformed structure. I will focus on unidirectional deformations with bounded gradients that preserve translation invariance along the armchair direction. In this setting\, we prove the existence of eigenmodes that behave like plane waves along the armchair direction and are strongly localized in the transverse direction\, together with quantitative correction estimates. These results apply to deformations that produce an approximately constant pseudo-magnetic field perpendicular to the plane. They also lead to nearly flat bands and\, as a consequence\, a very high density of states. These analytical results are also supported by numerical simulations of the corresponding deformations. This is joint work with Michael I. Weinstein.\n\nContact:  Ian Tobasco

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Amanda Ostwald
DESCRIPTION:Meteorites remain our only samples from Mars. All martian meteorites are igneous\, formed by magmas and lavas across large distances and distant time\, and so record processes that build and shape the planet’s crust. This talk will explore the physical and chemical processes forming just one suite of meteorites from Mars and the resulting implications for the broader geologic history of the red planet.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:9/11: Reclaiming Ground Zero
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the State Theatre for a viewing and discussion of the documentary Reclaiming Ground Zero\, which follows New Yorkers in the aftermath of 9/11 as they struggled to decide what to do with the site of the attacks.\n\nTickets are free but limited\, so please complete the registration to secure a seat.  \n\nAfter the 9/11 attacks\, once the smoke cleared and the rubble was removed\, New Yorkers had a city to rebuild. There was one fundamental question: no one could agree on the future of Ground Zero. Some wanted the towers back\, while others believed the site should remain a memorial. \n\nThen the city decided to do one of the bravest—or stupidest—things in the history of city planning. They gathered 5\,000 representative New Yorkers into the largest town hall in American history to vote on the city’s six proposals. People expected chaos and yelling. But instead\, the representatives rejected all the proposals and this top-down approach and successfully charted a new path forward. It was this meeting that determined what is at Ground Zero today.\n\nRegister: https://forms.gle/yw2mkN3JVA2FxY827

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Friday Night AI
DESCRIPTION:Panelists: Zara Burzo\, Raphael Fournier\, additional panelists TBD\nModerator: Prof. Rada Mihalcea\nOrganizer: Michigan AI Lab\, in collaboration with the Ann Arbor District Library\nWhen: September 11\, 2026\, 6:30pm – 7:30pm\nWhere: AADL Ann Arbor downtown\, 4th Floor Meeting Room (343 S 5th Ave\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48104)\n\nRobots are among the most challenging automated systems to build because they must operate in the complex and unpredictable physical world. Unlike software-only AI tools\, robots require mechanical design\, component fabrication\, electrical systems\, sensing\, control\, safety\, and programming to work together as a single integrated system. A robot that can navigate a room\, pick up an object\, or respond to a person depends not only on algorithms\, but also on sensors\, motors\, materials\, control systems\, and careful engineering tradeoffs.\n\nWhat does it actually take to build a robot from scratch? How do designers decide what components it should have\, how it should move\, and what kind of intelligence it needs? And when a robot fails\, how do engineers determine whether the problem lies in its hardware\, software\, or overall design? Join us for a conversation with Ann Arbor Public School students about how robots are designed\, built\, and tested\, and why making them work reliably in the real world remains such a difficult challenge.

DESCRIPTION:Professor Nicholas Walker from the Department of Strings performs a recital. The recital will begin with Prof. Walker's transcription for double bass of J. S. Bach's Partita in A minor for solo flute\, BWV 1013.\n\nThe second half of the program will feature 8 original works by Nicholas Walker: In April of 2017 Walker wrote *ZUGZWANG - Eight Duos for Double Basses*\, for Matthew McDonald & Rick Stotijn to play at the 50th Anniversary ISB Convention in Ithaca. The three bassists have a deep love of Germanic music\, although they each hail from non-German countries. This inspired a work for bassists from all cultures to play together\, eight duos that depict \"Eight German language words that do not exist in English\, but ought to\":\n\nZUGZWANG (2017) - Nicholas Walker (b. 1972)\n- *from Chess\; a situation in which an individual is required to make a move\, but any move will cause a serious disadvantage.*\n\ni. *Fernweh* - A Longing for Far-Away Places \nii. *Frühjarsmüdigkeit* - A Sense of Listlessness Brought on by the Coming of Spring \niii. *Sehnsucht* - Ardent Longing\, Pining\, or Yearning for Unattainable Life Experiences \niv. *Fingerspitzengefühl* - \"Fingertips Feeling\" - Intuitive Empathy with Things & People \nv. *Weltschmerz* - Despair Caused by the State of the World \nvi. *Kopfkino* - \"Head Cinema\" - Playing Out an Entire Fantasy Scenario in Your Head \nvii. *Geborgenheit* - The Perfect Combination of Cozy\, Warm\, Safe\, & Comfortable \nviii. *Luftschloss* - An Unrealistic Dream - an \"Air Castle\"\n\nFACULTY BIO\n\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/profiles/nicholas-walker/
