SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Finding Order in Disorder Through Permutation Symmetry
DESCRIPTION:Disordered materials\, such as glasses or granular media\, exist in a rugged potential-energy landscape with a myriad of stable configurations that defy easy enumeration and characterization. Introducing physical symmetries into these systems can decrease the number of available states\, resulting in a smoother energy landscape. In this talk\, I will show how a specific type of symmetry\, namely permutation symmetry in disordered packings of soft spherical particles\, leads to remarkable order in the distribution of basin volumes on the energy landscape. Breaking this symmetry leads to additional\, distinct configurations for arranging the particles\, thus rendering the landscape more rugged. I will present a novel algorithm that uncovers signs of the regularity initially observed in the landscape with intact symmetry\, within the landscape with broken symmetry. The principles discussed in this talk are extendable to various geometrical symmetries in disordered systems.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Leaders of the Revolution in South and Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:Explore national figures and revolutionary movements through a selection of graphic novels\, comics\, and other visual materials from South and Southeast Asia. \n\nBrowse a display of materials that detail the lives of leaders like Nehru\, Sukarno\, Corazon Aquino\, and Lee Kuan Yew while highlighting revolutionary social movements in the region. \n\nJoin colleagues from the library's International Studies department for this open house in the Third Thursdays at the Library event series.
