SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cohen-Macaulay Simplicial Complexes
DESCRIPTION:The Stanley-Reisner correspondence relates (non) faces of a simplicial complex with monomial ideals of a polynomial ring\, yielding a number of surprising connections between the combinatorics of simplicial complexes and commutative algebra. After introducing the relevant definitions and exploring some examples\, we’ll discuss Reisner’s criterion\, a theorem that equates Cohen-Macaulay-ness of a certain ring with the vanishing of homology of subcomplexes of the simplicial complex.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Soil mosaics and ant-earthworm functional domains within the coffee agroecosystem of Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:Ants and earthworms are widely recognized as important soil ecosystem engineers that contribute to various ecosystem processes such as nutrient cycling\, production of organic matter\, and soil formation\, and are thus important for maintaining healthy soils within agroecosystems. Addressing the dominant ant and earthworm taxa on Puerto Rican coffee farms\, I propose the existence of a “soil mosaic” of contrasting soil functional domains\, driven by the ant Solenopsis invicta exerting top-down control on populations of the earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus\, which then finds refuge elsewhere\, forming discrete areas of contrasting influence on soils by each organism. These contrasting effects then create a mosaic of soil patches of differing quality\, which will ultimately affect crop production within the coffee agroecosystem. Through this work I aim to broaden the current understanding of the ecological relationship between ants and earthworms and their shared functional impact on the generation and maintenance of soil structure\, fertility\, and plant growth within the coffee agroecosystem.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Soft condensed matter spectroscopy in the terahertz range
DESCRIPTION:Terahertz spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful tool for studies of condensed matter systems\, complementary to other more widespread techniques such as x-ray diffraction or infrared spectroscopy. The use of terahertz radiation\, lying in the spectral range 0.1-10 THz (3-330 cm^{-1})\, can reveal structural and dynamical information that is not easily accessible by other means.Terahertz vibrational modes are often mediators of technologically important chemical reactions such as the gas capture reaction in clathrates or exchange reactions in metal-organic frameworks. This presentation will review several spectroscopic studies which illustrate some of the ways in which terahertz spectroscopy is being used to study such soft materials.\n\nBio:\nDr. Mittleman received his B.S. in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1988\, and his M.S. in 1990 and Ph.D. in 1994\, both in physics from the University of California\, Berkeley. He then joined AT&amp\;T Bell Laboratories as a post-doctoral member of the technical staff\, where he built one of the early terahertz time-domain spectrometers for material spectroscopy and imaging. Dr. Mittleman joined the ECE Department at Rice University in September 1996. In 2015\, he moved to the School of Engineering at Brown University. His research interests involve the science and technology of terahertz radiation. He is a Fellow of the OSA\, the APS\, and the IEEE\, and a Humboldt Research Award winner\, and in 2023-2025 he is a Mercator Fellow of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. He has recently completed a three-year term as Chair of the International Society for Infrared Millimeter and Terahertz Waves.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquim Seminar: Stable functions on groups
DESCRIPTION:In 2011\, Malliaris and Shelah proved a strong form of Szemeredi's regularity lemma for the class of \"stable graphs\"\, which are graphs omitting a certain special subgraph called a \"half-graph\".  Using tools from additive combinatorics\, Terry and Wolf proved a group theoretic analogue of this result in which finite graphs are replaced by subsets of finite abelian groups. A suitable generalization to arbitrary finite groups was then proved by myself\, Pillay\, and Terry using model theoretic methods. This talk will focus on an analytic analogue of stability defined for bounded functions on groups. Roughly speaking\, the main result of the talk says that if G is amenable\, then any stable function on G is almost constant on all translates of a unitary Bohr set in G of bounded complexity. I will also discuss several applications related to Bogolyubobv's Lemma\, the Croot-Sisask Lemma\, and Folner's Theorem.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EHAP Lecture Series: Alpha Male Replacements in White-Faced Capuchins
DESCRIPTION:In primates\, male reproductive success is often facilitated by dominance rank. While we have a good understanding of the ultimate benefits that dominance rank provides males\, we know less about how male physiology and phenotypes change as males undergo changes in dominance rank. In this seminar\, I will discuss our ongoing research on the hormonal\, morphological\, olfactory\, and behavioral correlates of male rank acquisition in white faced-capuchins. Changes in male dominance rank are also associated with high rates of infanticide\, which produces extreme sexual conflict. Females have evolved strategies to reduce the occurrence and/or costs of infanticide to female reproductive success. I will discuss our exploration of one potential female strategy\, the Bruce effect - the termination of pregnancy in response to exposure to non-sire males.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Korean Waves before the Wave
DESCRIPTION:During the second half of the 20th Century\, large portions of the world encountered three significant waves of South Korean cultural export. Prior to the massively successful Korean popular media\, consumer products\, and technology that are globally recognized today\, Tae Kwon Do masters\, Protestant missionaries\, and classical musicians began representing South Korea to other countries. These specifically post-war domains of Korean culture manifest as highly specialized forms of learned expertise and authority\, which passed through explicitly defined and sustained social relations. Unlike the mediatized movement of cultural commodities or the rapid rise and fall of mass consumer trends\, the valorized cultural forms of these earlier waves traveled through face-to-face communication and embodied interaction in relatively intimate settings. This presentation draws out some sociopolitical connections among these three earlier waves of Korean cultural export in order to situate the broader phenomenon within a history of migration\, transnational education\, and the Cold War.\n   \n   Nicholas Harkness is the Modern Korean Economy and Society Professor of Anthropology and Director of the Korea Institute at Harvard University. His long-term ethnographic research in South Korea has focused on language\, music\, and religion within the context of Korea’s massive engagement with Protestant Christianity in the 20th and 21st Centuries. He is the author of Songs of Seoul: An Ethnography of Voice and Voicing in Christian South Korea (University of California Press\, 2014) and Glossolalia and the Problem of Language (University of Chicago Press\, 2021)\, as well as numerous papers in Korean Studies\, linguistic anthropology\, and semiotics. Harkness is the recipient of the Edward Sapir Book Prize\, the Phi Beta Kappa Prize for Excellence in Teaching\, and many fellowships and grants\, including from the Social Science Research Council\, the National Humanities Center\, the Academy of Korean Studies\, and the Korea Foundation. At Harvard\, Harkness also organizes the Roman Jakobson Symposium and the Harvard-Yenching Institute Field Development Program in Linguistic and Semiotic Anthropology.\n\nAttend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_B48hxMTBQKe6AS0BHNVEhw\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Radical Lives of Anaerobes and How to Fight Them
DESCRIPTION:Pathogenic bacteria that infect the gastrointestinal and respiratory tract form biofilms that are largely anaerobic\, modulating their metabolic lifestyle and virulence. Many of these microbes utilize acetate fermentation via the enzyme pyruvate formate lyase (PFL)\, which catalyzes the production of acetyl-CoA and formate from pyruvate via a radical mechanism\, enabling additional ATP production and the de novo synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. We have investigated the mechanism of PFL via mechanism-based inhibitors to reveal the essential role of two cysteine thiyl radicals in catalysis and estimate their reactivity for the first time. Additionally\, we have demonstrated the role of nitric oxide (NO) as an irreversible inhibitor of they glycyl radical enzyme PFL as well as glycyl radical enzymes as a class and their radical S-adenosylmethionine-dependent activases via the production of dinitrosyl iron complexes. These results set the stage for the development of mechanism-based inhibitors of PFL and other glycyl radical enzymes and provide a biochemically informed approach to narrow-spectrum site-specific antibiotic development for the treatment of gastrointestinal and pulmonary disease.
