SUMMARY:Film Screening:T.REX
DESCRIPTION:With stunning CGI visuals and the latest research from leading paleontologists\, the film offers audiences a fresh perspective on the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tyrants): Tyrannosaurus rex. Anchored by the true story of the young fossil hunters who made the discovery of a lifetime when they spotted a large fossilized leg bone on a walk on public lands in North Dakota\, T. REX intercuts the remarkable fossil dig\, with cutting edge computer graphics that bring the iconic T. rex to life—from hatchling to hulking adult. Narrated by Jurassic Park actor Sam Neill\, T. REX explores the newest science that has helped reinvent our understanding of the iconic predator.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  The Geometry of Diffusion Generation: A Log-Density Ridge Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Diffusion models generate data by gradually transforming noise into structured samples. When these samples differ from the training examples\, what determines their geometric organization? In this talk\, I will present a framework based on log-density ridges of the smoothed empirical distribution. These evolving structures provide a geometric reference for analyzing generation relative to a finite training set. I will describe a reach–align–slide mechanism in reverse diffusion: samples enter a ridge neighborhood\, approach the ridge in normal directions\, and move along it relative to nearby training data. Our analysis relates alignment and local tangential motion to directional components of the learned denoising error\, connecting training error to generation geometry. This perspective helps explain how generated samples can organize around structures induced by the data while differing from individual training examples. Synthetic examples and MNIST latent-space experiments illustrate the predicted behavior. The talk will introduce the necessary background on diffusion models and log-density ridges.\n\nThis talk is based on joint work with Yitong Qiu and Molei Tao\, recently accepted at NeurIPS 2026.\n\nContact:  Zhiyan Ding

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.
