SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Pictures of Home Away from Home: Esther Bubley’s Wartime Family Album
DESCRIPTION:In January 1943 the Jewish photographer Esther Bubley took a series of photographs in a boarding house in Washington\, D.C. The photographs portrayed life in this Jewish home away from home filled with war workers. Its glimpse into characteristics of the home front during World War II illuminates how some American Jews lived\, worked\, and loved during one of the most devastating years of the war for European Jews.\n\nDeborah Dash Moore is Jonathan Freedman Distinguished University Professor of History and Professor of Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan specializing in twentieth century urban Jewish history. Her recent book\, \"Walkers in the City: Jewish Street Photographers of Mid-Century New York (2023)\,\" winner of a National Jewish Book Award\, extends her interest to photography.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible in part by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR:  Metric Lines in Carnot groups
DESCRIPTION:Among nilpotent Lie groups\, Carnot groups form a particularly important subclass\, with the Heisenberg group being the most well-known example. Carnot groups admit the structure of a sub-Riemannian manifold. Thus\, to broaden the context\, a sub-Riemannian geodesic is a local arc-length-minimizing curve. A natural question is: What are the conditions for a geodesic to be a global minimizer? A curve is called a metric line if it is a globally minimizing geodesic\; an alternative term is “an isometric embedding of the real line.” The talk is devoted to presenting the results and ideas that inspired me to formulate a conjecture classifying metric lines in Carnot groups\, as well as the results obtained in this direction.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Shaping a Soft Future
DESCRIPTION:Existing devices—such as phones\, computers\, and robots – are made from rigid materials\, which is in direct contrast to the soft materials that compose the human body. Our group is studying and harnessing soft materials to create devices (actuators\, sensors\, electronics) with tissue-like properties. For example\, gallium-based liquid metal alloys have remarkable properties: low melting point\, water-like viscosity\, low-toxicity\, and effectively zero vapor pressure.  Despite being liquid\, these materials can be patterned into stretchable conductive circuits due to a thin\, oxide skin that forms rapidly on its surface. This oxide can also be separated from the metal as a way to print thin conductors and dielectrics at ambient conditions.  In addition to soft electronic conductors\, we study soft\, stretchable ionic conductors called ‘ionogels’ that contain ionic liquids. We have found simple ways to improve the toughness of these materials. Taken together this work has implications for soft and stretchable electronics\; that is\, devices with desirable mechanical properties for human-machine interfacing\, soft robotics\, and wearable electronics.
