SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Commutative Algebra: Singularities and Big Cohen Macaulay Algebras
DESCRIPTION:We plan to survey singularities in commutative algebra through perfectoid methods and big Cohen–Macaulay (BCM) algebras. We begin by recalling how the Frobenius endomorphism controls regularity in characteristic p \, highlighting Kunz’s theorem and the role of perfect and semi-perfect rings\, and then explain how perfectoid rings provide a mixed-characteristic analogue via tilting\, untilting\, and Witt vectors.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Classical mechanics as the high-entropy limit of quantum mechanics
DESCRIPTION:In our recent publication (https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1402-4896/ae3a20)\, we show that classical mechanics can be recovered as the high-entropy limit of quantum mechanics. That is\, the high entropy masks quantum effects\, and mixed states of high enough entropy can be approximated with classical distributions. The mathematical limit hbar to 0 can be recovered by decreasing entropy of pure states to minus infinity\, in the same way that non-relativistic mechanics can be recovered mathematically by increasing the speed of light c to plus infinity. Physically\, these limits are more appropriately understood as a high entropy limit and low speed limit respectively\, representing approximations that are independent of underlying mechanism. With this approach\, the classical limit is both formally and conceptually similar to the non-relativistic limit\, and is independent of interpretation. It also gives an intuitive understanding to the Dirac correspondence principle: it is looking for a theory with lower entropy bound that\, at high entropy\, recovers classical mechanics. Given that the Moyal bracket is the unique one-parameter Lie-algebraic deformation of the Poisson bracket\, quantum mechanics is the only theory that can provide such a lower bound on the entropy.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Jewish Journalism in Dark Times
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Journalism in Dark Times\nPanelists: Naomi Brenner (Ohio State University)\, Gilad Halpern\, and Matthew Handelman (2025–2026 Frankel Institute Fellows)Moderator: Shachar Pinsker (Co-Head Fellow)\nJoin us for a roundtable discussion exploring the transformation of Jewish journalism during the interwar years  (1918–1939) and World War II\, an era of profound upheaval. Panelists will analyze how Jewish newspapers and journals became vital platforms for political\, literary\, and cultural engagement. The discussion will highlight dramatic shifts in journalistic practices\, including evolving editorial strategies\, reporting methods\, and technological innovations in format and distribution and the transnational and transcultural elements that come to the fore during that time. Panelists will also examine the economic pressures and opportunities that shaped the Jewish press\, and consider the influence and role of Jews as journalists within the broader media landscape.\nGilad Halpern\, journalist and media historian\, draws on recent doctoral research on The Palestine Post amid imperial decline and rising nationalism\, bridging professional and scholarly perspectives. Naomi Brenner explores entertainment fiction in the Hebrew and Yiddish press\, focusing on the aesthetics and politics of the roman-feuilleton as a transnational literary form.Matthew Handelman investigates the cultural politics of German Jewish intellectuals  and the primacy of culture in political discourse from the Weimar Republic onward.\nCentral to the conversation is the role of Jewish periodicals as spaces for cultural expression\, literary experimentation\, and political debate. These publications not only documented Jewish life\, but actively shaped identities\, fostered transnational dialogue\, and provided forums for writers\, artists\, and intellectuals grappling with questions of survival and belonging. This roundtable offers timely insights into journalism during a time of crisis\, illuminating enduring questions about Jews and media.\n
