SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR:  Minimal submanifolds\, higher expanders\, and waists of locally symmetric spaces
DESCRIPTION:Gromov initiated a program to prove statements of the following form: Suppose we are given two simplicial complexes X and Y\, where X is “complicated” and Y is lower dimensional. Then any map f: X-> Y must have at least one \"complicated” fiber. In this talk I will describe various results of this kind for compact locally symmetric spaces\, that are proved by bringing new tools into the picture from minimal surface theory and representation theory. Much of the talk will be focused on octonionic hyperbolic manifolds\, the case where our approach seems to work best. If time permits I will also discuss some applications to systolic geometry\, global fixed point theorems for actions of higher rank lattices on contractible CAT(0) simplicial complexes\, and/or a connection to recent work by Connell-McReynolds-Wang involving homology vanishing theorems for infinite covolume discrete subgroups of SL(n\,R).  Based on joint work with Mikolaj Fraczyk.  \n\nIn the first talk I will focus on giving background on Gromov's program for proving waist inequalities\, and the necessary ingredients from representation theory and the theory of minimal submanifolds.  The second talk will not assume that you went to the first talk.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Devotion Art Exhibit Grand Opening by Jonathan Harris with Jon Onye Lockard
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the Grand Opening of Devotion\, a powerful exhibit of paintings by Jonathan Harris with murals by the School of Jon Onye Lockard. Harris (1988-) and Lockard (1932-2015)\, both native Detroiters\, span generations and time\, but their art engages in similar topics of current events and the issues of the African Diaspora.\nDevotion denotes great passion and commitment. Jonathan Harris and Jon Onye Lockard present visual art with immense talent borne by a deep dedication to portraying the Black experience in meaningful ways. Using vibrant colors and powerful themes\, the two artists have attained reputations for their commanding styles of painting that reveal their incredible imaginations.  \nLight refreshments will be served.
