SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CGIS: GCC in Beijing\, China - 2nd Year Chinese Info Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Global Course Connections (GCCs) offer a unique opportunity to take what students learn on campus at U-M during the winter semester and apply it abroad in a fun and exciting hands-on class taught by a U-M professor during a 3-week\, off-campus field experience that takes place during the following summer.Join CGIS Advisor Ben Peipert and Professor Qian Liu to learn more about the GCC in Beijing\, China - 2nd Year Chinese program\, the application process\, and the courses.Friday\, October 16 from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (Online Info Session)Friday\, November 6 from 3:00 to 4:00 PM (Online Info Session)Tuesday\, November 17 from 3:30 to 4:30 PM (Online Drop-In Advising)Thursday\, December 3 from 1:00 to 2:00 PM (Online Drop-In Advising)The GCC China program is led and taught by Professor of Chinese Language\, Qian Liu.GCC Application Deadline: December 10\, 2026

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar |  On the origin of Flavor and CP Violation
DESCRIPTION:I will present recent work on several aspects of flavor physics\, motivated by suggestive patterns in high-precision data. First\, I will discuss CKM unitarity constraints\, focusing on the angles of the unitarity triangle and on intriguing hints of spontaneous CP violation. Then\, I will argue that Standard Model running of the Yukawa couplings points to quark–lepton unification at a surprisingly low scale. Simple Pati–Salam theories of flavor can realize this for all three generations\, with predictions within reach of upcoming searches for charged-lepton flavor violation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Periodic pipe dreams and matrix positroid varieties
DESCRIPTION:Fan\, Guo\, Su and our own Rui Xiong introduced \"periodic pipe dreams\" to compute fundamental  classes of positroid varieties\, as classes on Grassmannians. Their formula is too beautiful to live only in a quotient ring. I'll explain some subtleties in interpreting it geometrically upstairs in the polynomial ring\, and extend it to compute classes of other projected Richardson varieties. As in the work of Fan\, Guo\, Su and Xiong\, we will also discuss CSM classes of the related open varieties.  This work is joint with Paul Zinn-Justin.
