SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG SEMINAR GeometryTopologyDynamics:  TWO INVARIANTS OF TYPE-PRESERVING REPRESENTATIONS AND APPLICATIONS
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  We investigate the representations of surface groups into PSL(2\, R). For a closed surface\, by the classical result of Goldman\, the Euler class provides a complete classification of the connected components of the character variety. However\, describing these components becomes more subtle when considering the type-preserving representations for punctured surfaces. In this talk\, I will introduce two invariants of type-preserving representations that characterize the connected components. As an application\, I will show the existence of totally hyperbolic representations\, giving a negative answer to a question of Bowditch. I will also discuss the relation between the existence of such representations and the mapping class group action on the relative character variety.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Guest Lecture | Heritage Forensics: Culture on the Front Lines of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Conflict
DESCRIPTION:This talk introduces the concept of heritage forensics\, a framework for studying abuses of cultural heritage in contexts of conflict\, genocide\, and ethnic cleansing. Drawing on the new co-authored volume\, *Heritage Forensics: Cultural on the Front Lines of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Conflict*\, the presentation examines how cultural sites became entangled in the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh during the interwar period (1994-2020). The talk considers how satellite-based heritage forensics is being deployed prospectively\, to monitor hundreds of Armenian sites in Karabakh following Azerbaijan's 2023 takeover of the region and the displacement of its Armenian population. In doing so\, it asks: how can satellite-based monitoring function as a form of \"counter-forensics\,\" turning surveillance technologies developed for military purposes back on the state? Can heritage forensics move us beyond retrospective documentation to actively deter erasure and support truth\, reconciliation\, and accountability wherever cultural heritage is at stake?\n\nLori Khatchadourian is Professor of Near Eastern Studies and Anthropology at Cornell University\, and co-founder and co-director of Caucasus Heritage Watch. She currently serves as Director of the Cornell Institute of Archaeology and Material Studies. Khatchadourian’s research spans the fields of archaeology\, social anthropology\, and heritage studies\, with a particular focus on Armenia\, the wider South Caucasus\, and neighboring regions. Current projects explore the archaeology of modernity\, including problems of genocide\, deindustrialization\, and the entanglements of cultural heritage and war. She is the co-author of *Heritage Forensics: Culture on the Front Lines of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Conflict* (Cornell\, 2026) and author of Imperial Matter: Ancient Persia and the Archaeology of Empires (UC Press\, 2016). She is also co-editor of *Rethinking Empire: Materiality\, Metaphysics\, and Imperial Politics* (SAR\, 2026) and *Fitful Histories and Unruly Publics: The Archaeology of Eurasia *(2017).\n\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99311308952\n\nCosponsors: Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, Department of Middle East Studies\, Department of Anthropology\, Classical Studies\, Center for Russian\, East European\, and Eurasian Studies\, Ancient Mediterranean Art and Archaeology (IPAMAA) Kelsey Museum\, Archaeology at Michigan\, and NAASR.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.
