It is natural to ask whether powers of a fixed sequence of parameters may be replaced by any sequence of parameter ideals I_n contained in m^n. Recalling that the multiplicity may be realized as the alternating sum of the lengths of Koszul homology modules, it is also natural to ask for which i > 0 we have the length of the i^th homology module of the I_n on M divided by the length of M\/I_nM approaching 0 as n approaches infinity. In this talk, we will consider the latter question in the case where R is a complete regular local ring containing a field and M is faithful.

I find evidence in favor of greater conformity with group behavior in public, with randomization into public bidding increasing the odds of individuals bidding closer to their expectations regarding the average group bid. The intersection of preferences for conformity with low expectations regarding the average willingness to pay for the product results in lower bids in public than private. On the other hand, bidders who express no expectations regarding group behavior have higher bids when randomized into public bidding, in line with status seeking in the absence of motives to conform. I find stronger patterns of conformity in environments characterized by high levels of water contamination. However, priming bidders with salience of health externalities and the negative spillovers from poor investment in preventative health weakens conformity trends.

However, the fate of this carbon sink is highly uncertain, in large part because global models diverge in their predictions of ecosystem responses to climate change, drought, and other perturbations. Although there is little agreement on how terrestrial ecosystems will respond to global change on decadal and longer time-scales, there is wide consensus that current global models are overly simplistic in their representation of important ecological processes. I will discuss our current understanding of how tree functional diversity is maintained in forests, the consequences of including more realistic levels of functional diversity in global models, and the computational challenges that need to be overcome in order to introduce ecological realism into the Earth System Models that the scientific and policy communities rely on for climate projections. A key result that is emerging from empirical and theoretical studies is that shifts in species composition across time or space (beta diversity) have different (and sometimes opposite) effects on ecosystem stability as local (alpha) diversity.\r\n\r\nWatch YouTube video: https:\/\/youtu.be\/Xv5RtsmMm9Q", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"31886-4437139@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/31886", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "campus_maps_id":"34", "room":"1210", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Biology","Ecology","Engineering","Environment","Information and Technology","Research","Science"], "website":"http:\/\/micde.umich.edu\/event\/micde-2016-fall-seminar-series-jeremy-lichstein-university-of-florida\/", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Ecology and Evolutionary Biology", "group_id":"1190", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering", "group_id":"3286", "website":"http:\/\/micde.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Program in Biology", "group_id":"3783", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"EEB Thursday Seminars", "group_id":"3822", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":4437139 } , "34188-4885933": { "datetime_modified":"20160926T122428", "datetime_start":"20160929T160000", "datetime_end":"20160929T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2016-09-29", "date_end":"2016-09-29", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Immigration, Party Politics, and America's Racial Divide", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Immigration, Party Politics, and America's Racial Divide: Lecture by Zoltan Hajnal | Professor of Political Science, University of California - San Diego", "event_subtitle":"Lecture by Zoltan Hajnal | Professor of Political Science, University of California - San Diego", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"We know that immigration is profoundly changing the demographics of America but we know less about how it is changing our politics.

These forums will create a space for dialogues among faculty, students, staff, and the Ann Arbor community on a range of issues pertinent to the local and national Latina\/o community. The forums will include the participation of University of Michigan faculty members, graduate and undergraduate students, and invited speakers from other institutions and organizations.\r\n\r\nThe first forum, \u201cPulse and Queer Latinidad,\u201d is Thursday, September 29, 2016, from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm at Haven Hall 3512. This forum is dedicated to the June 12, 2016 shooting at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. The participants will discuss the importance of spaces such as Pulse for young queer Latinas\/os, the mainstream media\u2019s coverage of the shooting, the impact such a tragedy had on the LGBTQ and Latina\/o communities, the ways in which many young Latinas\/os used on-line forums to create a support network, and the ongoing systemic violence against queer Latinas\/os. The forum participants are Dr. Ram\u00f3n Rivera-Servera, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Performance Studies, Northwestern University; Dr. Larry La Fountain-Stokes, Associate Professor, Departments of American Culture, Romance Languages and Literatures, and Women\u2019s Studies; Vicky Koski-Karell, doctoral student, Medical School and Department of Anthropology; and Patrick Mullen-Coyoy, BA student, Honors Latina\/o Studies, Spanish, and History. Dr. Mar\u00eda Cotera, Associate Professor, Departments of American Culture and Women\u2019s Studies, will moderate.\r\n\r\nThe second forum, \u201cLatinas\/os and the 2016 Election,\u201d is Thursday, November 3, 2016, from 4:00 to 6:00 pm at North Quad 2435. Just five days before the 2016 presidential election, this forum will address the political mobilization of Latinas\/os in response to Donald Trump\u2019s campaign, the community\u2019s engagement with policy debates regarding immigration, and the response of a diverse Latina\/o community (in terms of ethnicity, age, and gender) to the Republican and Democratic candidates and platforms. The participants are Dr. John Garc\u00eda, Research Professor Emeritus, Institute for Social Research, ICPSR and Center for Political Studies; Dr. Mara Cecilia Ostfeld, Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science; and Vanessa Cruz Nichols, doctoral candidate in the Department of Political Science. Dr. Silvia Pedraza, Professor, Departments of American Culture and Sociology, will moderate.\r\n\r\nThe forums in winter 2017 will be part of the University of Michigan\u2019s Bicentennial events. Under the general theme of \u201cThe University, the Nation, and the Future of Latina\/o Studies,\u201d these engagements will explore the themes of Immigration and Afro-Latinidad. The \u201cMigration\u201d forum will address the impact the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) immigration policy has had at the University of Michigan and at the national level. The \u201cAfro-Latinidades\u201d forum will focus on Afro-Latino and African-American relationships during particular historical periods and especially the relationship between these two groups institutionally at the University of Michigan. More information about the winter 2017 forums will be provided later in the semester.\r\n\r\nPARTICIPANTS\r\n\r\nDr. Ram\u00f3n Rivera-Servera, Associate Professor and Chair, Department of Performance

\"A Tomb for Boris Davidovich.\" Boris Davidovich Novsky, the protagonist of this famous story, ended his life by jumping into the cauldron of boiling tar. The scenography of Novsky\u2019s suicide recalls the aesthetics of his early revolutionary actions as something that simultaneously makes him a transgressor of the revolution and its saint. Novsky-the-terrorist was known for surprising and elegant terrorist acts, shocking by their speed, unpredictability, and large number of victims. Tar, which ultimately hides Novsky from the revolution, is traditionally used to publicly mark the traitors of community who had violated its taboos. The flame, boiling, explosion and fire, are the most common symbols by which revolution itself is represented. In the metonymic reading Novsky would be the Revolution itself, but a revolution that is narcissistic, suicidal and melancholic.\r\n\r\nThe lecture interrogates revolutionary melancholy in the oeuvre of Danilo Ki\u0161 as gender melancholy that is always the melancholy of revolutionary masculinity itself. In the work of Danilo Ki\u0161 the iconography of the revolutionary initiation - without which Revolution is ineffective - is represented as paternalistic one, based in the cult of heroic sacrifices. Thus, the figure of the revolutionary in Ki\u0161\u2019s work is always a male figure: the role of the revolutionary in the sphere of public discourse is inherited along the male lineage, from the father (of Revolution) to the son (of Revolution). The same patriarchal initiation iconography is also used in Ki\u0161\u2019s poethics lectures on the art of writing through which the figure of the writer is (re)constituted as a heroic and revolutionary male figure. In Ki\u0161\u2019s literary work, the figure of the writer is palimpsestic and it is melancholically inscribed in the figure of a revolutionary (and vice versa). Boris Davidovich Novsky is a revolutionary and a conformist, a humanist and a terrorist, a murderer and a writer, a bon vivant and a ghost at the same time. His biographies constantly multiply undermining the establishing of \"the true one\" and include the process of inscription of one figure into the other as paradigmatic poetic characteristic of Ki\u0161\u2019s work. Therefore the lecture will also ask questions about the role these inscriptions have had in the constitution of the figure of the writer in Serbian and Yugoslav cultures since the 1980s of the 20th century until today.\r\n\r\nThe lecture will be focused on gender(ed) revolutionary melancholy embodied in the ambivalent project of a \u201cperfect biography.\u201d Novsky\u2019s death is spectacular precisely because it has been carefully planned with the one and only purpose: to create an image of a perfect revolutionary. The narratives of paternity, one of the most important Biblical narratives, is in the basis of the \u201cperfect biography\u201d project dominated by the totalitarian cult of the revolutionary leader as an iconic ideological father-figure. But the project of a \u201cperfect biography\u201d turns out to be an impossible one. Novsky\u2019s suicidal signature is conceived to be a heroic phase of the Revolution but it paradoxically subverts the revolutionary heroic tradition, transforming the Great Father\/Leader of the Revolution into its Great Other.\r\n\r\nThis discussion will also investigate the specific status of the writer figure and his artistic-aesthetic biography in the context of imperatives and transformations of the project of a \u201cperfect biography\u201d in Ki\u0161\u2019s work. The project of a \u201cperfect biography\u201d will be discussed as a project shaped through an ambivalent struggle for a revolutionary\/artistic initiation and revolutionary maturity, for the forgotten past as well as for the lost future of revolution\/art, in which sons and fathers play their tragic, mutually interchangeable historical and ideological roles. The project of a perfect biography reveals complex political processes of the (re)production and interpellation of revolutionary and artistic figures\/names in which Revolution transmutates into a killing machine with its history crowded by scenes of filicide and patricide.\r\n\r\nTatjana Rosi\u0107 Ili\u0107 is associate professor at the Faculty of Media and Communications of Singidunum University and a research fellow at the Institute for Literature and Art, both in Belgrade, Serbia.

In the mid 80s, Weiss proved that the equivalence relation generated by a finite family of commuting Borel automorphisms is hyperfinite, and in the mid 90s, Dougherty, Jackson, and Kechris proved that the equivalence relation generated by a single Borel endomorphism is hypersmooth. We will generalize both results to show that the equivalence relation generated by a finite family of commuting Borel endomorphisms is hypersmooth. As is typical in this area, the proof will involve the construction of a suitable family of Borel marker sets. This is the second of this series of talks.
