SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ziwet Lecture III: Lorentzian Polynomials\, Matroids over Hyperfields\, and Related Topics
DESCRIPTION:Lorentzian polynomials serve as a bridge between continuous and discrete convex analysis\, with tropical geometry providing the critical link. The tropical connection is used to produce Lorentzian polynomials from discrete convex functions\, leading for example to a short proof of Mason's conjecture on the number of independent sets of a matroid. This lecture series will explore the intricate relationships among Grassmannians over hyperfields\, dequantization processes\, and the theory of Lorentzian polynomials. In ongoing collaborative work with Matt Baker\, Mario Kummer\, and Oliver Lorscheid\, we extend the connection between Lorentzian polynomials and discrete convex functions to matroids over triangular hyperfields\, as introduced by Viro. This extension deepens our understanding of the space of Lorentzian polynomials\, revealing a complex interplay among analysis\, combinatorics\, and geometry.\n\nThe three lectures in this series are designed to be accessible to a broad audience and appropriate for a Department Colloquium.\n\nAmong his many honors\, Prof. Huh is a recipient of the Fields Medal (2022)\, the MacArthur Fellowship (2022)\, and the New Horizons in Mathematics Prize (2019). He received his PhD in Mathematics from U-M in 2014.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Amy Ku'uleialoha Stillman
DESCRIPTION:What can an indigenized ethnomusicology contribute to knowledge production\, musical knowledge\, and knowledge about musical practice by\, about\, and especially for [in the service of] indigenous people? My title raises two questions:\n\n1) Starting from a general perspective of asking how soundscapes and sonic intimacies are experienced by indigenous people\, and to bring this within an explicitly ethnomusicological framework\, how are musical soundscapes and musical sonic intimacies experienced by Indigenous peoples?\n\n2) How are musical soundscapes and musical sonic intimacies archived in indigenous bodies? My tactic\, here\, is to work outward from my own positionality as a Native Hawaiian woman raised in a Hawaiian household and shaped by decades of research on Hawaiian music and dance performance. I propose to outline my thoughts by strolling down a path of discovery. I invite you to join me as we gather bits and pieces along the way\, so that we might work together toward a view of an ethnomusicological practice that is resonant with Indigenous ways of being in the world.\n\nAmy Kuʻuleialoha Stillman is Arthur F. Thurnau Professor\, Professor of American Culture and Musicology\, and Director of Native American Studies at the University of Michigan. She has published widely on historical aspects of Hawaiian and other Polynesian musics and dance. She has also curated and co-produced nine CDs\, and is recipient of the Hawaiʻi Music Award as well as two GRAMMY awards in Hawaiian music. Her current project\, nearing completion\, is a critical edition of Hawaiian repertoire which will appear as one volume in the Music of the United States of America series published by the American Musicological Society.\n\nThis program is organized by the Department of Musicology at the University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.
