Speaker: Marina Moleti Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati (SISSA) Abstract:We present a new algorithm to extract the quiver and superpotential of a broad class of threefolds that fall under simple threefold flops. These geometries are generally non-toric and can be viewed as monodromic fibrations over a complex plane of deformed ADE singularities. We illustrate how the quantum field theory of a D2 brane probing these spaces captures their non-commutative resolution (NCCR).

Seminar on Democracy and the Nordic Model at the University of Copenhagen, 14-15 November 2024.

The Center for Culture and Technology, University of Southern Denmark and the research cluster “The Aesthetics of Biomachines and the Question of Life” (The Velux Foundations) invite you to join this exciting talk!This Is Your Brain on ImageNet": Embedding and Visual Epistemology – Fabian Offert (UCSB)"Embedding" is one of the most important techniques in the machine learning toolbox. Polemically, in natural language processing and computer vision, any useful knowledge is embedded knowledge. While the technique itself is hardly more than an advanced form of compression, it is the universality of embeddings that renders them interesting from an epistemological perspective: universal faculties – such as "seeing" in the case of computer vision, which I will focus on in this talk – are extrapolated from particular datasets and represented in an exclusively relational manner. Exactly because of their universality, embeddings live on, sometimes way beyond the lifespan of the datasets that they represent. "Historical" deep convolutional neural network features, for instance, still inform the training of newer generative models by ways of perceptual distance metrics that determine the realism of generated images. By becoming just another part of the training pipeline, however, they cease to appear as distinctive epistemic structures. More importantly, this "historical opacity" of embeddings obfuscates what I propose to understand as a major epistemic shift: scientific knowledge, at least if it relates to the visual, is often generated with the help of cultural data. Embeddings, then, can be seen as a cultural technique, and as a trading zone that spans, surprisingly, not only branches of the natural sciences, but the sciences and the humanities.Fabian Offert is Assistant Professor for the History and Theory of the Digital Humanities at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and principal investigator of the international research project "AI Forensics", funded by the Volkswagen Foundation. His research and teaching focuses on the question how machine learning models represent culture and what is at stake – aesthetically and politically – when they do. His current book project investigates "Machine Visual Culture" in the age of foundation models. https://zentralwerkstatt.org.Zoom linkRegistration is not necessary.Please contact: [email]nag@sdu.dk[/email] for additional info.

Speaker: Apoorv Tiwari (University of Southern Denmark) Abstract:TBA

Center for Subjectivity Research at the University of Copenhagen was established in 2002 on the basis of a grant from the Danish National Research Foundation (Danmarks Grundforskningsfond). Its three founders were a philosopher, a psychiatrist, and a professor of systematic theology.  Since then, it has had more than 80 employees, attracted more than 250 guest researchers, and secured external funding in excess of 140.000.000 DKK. Currently, its staff involves people with a background in philosophy, psychiatry, sociology, anthropology, and criminology. In my talk, I will outline the history of the center, present some of its distinctive features, and discuss how it over the years has facilitated interdisciplinary collaboration.About Dan ZahaviDan Zahavi is Professor of Philosophy and director of the Center for Subjectivity Research at the University of Copenhagen. Zahavi’s primary research area is phenomenology and philosophy of mind, and their intersection with empirical disciplines such as psychiatry, psychology, and anthropology. In addition to various scholarly works on the phenomenology of Husserl, Zahavi has mainly written on the nature of selfhood, self-consciousness, intersubjectivity, empathy, and most recently on topics in social ontology. His most important publications include Self-awareness and Alterity (1999/2020), Husserl’s Phenomenology (2003), Subjectivity and Selfhood (2005), The Phenomenological Mind (together with Shaun Gallagher) (2008/2012/2021), Self and Other (2014), Husserl’s Legacy (2017), Phenomenology: The Basics (2019), and Being We (forthcoming in 2025). His work has been translated into more than 30 languages.

Hver dag går arbejdspladser glip af vigtige pointer fra introverte medarbejdere, der ikke bliver hørt – enten fordi de holder sig tilbage, eller fordi det ikke er nemt at få taletid.Mange introverte kan føle sig udfordrede af et ekstrovert samfundsideal, hvor netværk, hurtige beslutninger og gennemslagskraft er en stor del af arbejdslivet. Det stilfærdige, gennemtænkte og velformulerede kan ofte blive overset.Foredraget klæder de introverte på til at komme på banen på deres egne præmisser. Du får også gode råd til at komme godt ind i fællesskabet fra begyndelsen, når du starter på en ny arbejdsplads og at vedligeholde de gode relationer.Helt konkret går vi i dybden med:• Hvad det vil sige at være introvert og ekstrovert – og hvordan det ser ud i praksis• Hvilke styrker og udfordringer er der ved de to personlighedstræk• Hvordan bruger vi de styrker til vores fordel• Hvordan kan du som introvert blive hørt• Hvordan kan du som introvert præsentere dine karaktertræk som styrker• Hvordan kan du komme godt ind i fællesskabet på en ny arbejdsplads

Valentino Picotti defends his PhD thesis: Language Support for Microservices Development.Professor Jacopo Mauro will act as chairman at the defence.

Speaker: Guillaume Laplante-Anfossi (University of Southern Denmark) Abstract:Given a curved A-infinity algebra and a bounding cochain (a.k.a Maurer—Cartan element), one can twist the former by the latter to get a new A-infinity algebra where the curvature is zero. This uncurving procedure plays a central rôle in Floer theory, where Fukaya categories are naturally curved objects. The goal of this talk will be to give a universal characterization of the procedure, using the theory of operads: we will show that the operad cMC, whose algebras are curved A-infinity algebras endowed with a Maurer—Cartan element, together with its natural morphism to the A-infinity operad, is terminal in a certain comma category. This category does not contain the Maurer—Cartan equation, thus the theorem provides a way to « rediscover » it as the answer to a universal (algebraic) problem. This is joint work with Adrian Petr and Vivek Shende.

Nordic Humanities Center og DaWS-history inviterer til seminar om Danmarks modtagelse af flygtninge gennem 100 år

The digital revolution has transformed the way we create, preserve, and access information, reshaping the role of archives in society.This talk explores the potential future of archives in the digital age, using one of the oldest philosophical archives and research institutes for philosophy in Germany – the Husserl Archives Cologne – as an example. Drawing on insights from phenomenology and digital humanities, it examines how digitalization challenges traditional notions of permanence, authenticity, and ownership. How do virtual repositories affect the human experience of accessibility and historical continuity? What implications does this have for cultural memory? About Thiemo BreyerThiemo Breyer is Professor of Phenomenology and Anthropology at the University of Cologne, where he also serves as Director of the Husserl Archives. He holds a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Freiburg and an M.Phil. in Social Anthropology from the University of Cambridge. He was visiting professor in Kyoto, Mainz, Milano, and Montreal, and research fellow at Harvard University. His research interests within the broader field of consciousness studies include affectivity, attention, embodiment, empathy, and memory. Venue: DIAS Auditorium Address: Fioniavej 34, 5230 OdenseOpen for all

Why is there a sudden and sharp drop in births occurring in so many countries in the 2010-20 decade?

Speaker: Michael Borinsky The Institute for Theoretical Studies (ETH-ITS), Zürich Abstract:I will present new results on the asymptotic growth rate of the Euler characteristic of Kontsevich's commutative graph complex. These results imply the same asymptotic growth rate for the top-weight Euler characteristic of M_g, the moduli space of curves, due to a recent work by Chan, Galatius and Payne. Further, they establish the existence of large amounts of unexplained cohomology in this graph complex. I will explain the role of this graph complex from the perspective of M_g's cohomology.

The Polar Marine Science GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.Sea ice plays a keystone role in polar oceans and atmospheres, particularly in their coupling. Serving as a transmission belt for the transfer of motion from the atmosphere to the ocean, it modulates the exchange of energy, gases, and moisture. It plays a role in the emission of marine aerosols and controls the transfer of various atmospheric depositions to the ocean. Sea ice also constitutes a distinct ecosystem for a wide range of organisms, from microbes to mammals. The presence of sea ice, for several months or even year-round, shapes the dynamics of the surface ocean over time and space, influencing its biogeochemistry and the epipelagic, mesopelagic, and even benthic ecosystems. The positive and negative feedbacks sea ice promotes have the potential to accelerate or slow down climate change and its consequences. During this fourteenth edition of the GRC on Marine Polar Science, we will examine sea ice from every angle and explore the limits of our most fundamental knowledge about this habitat, which is a key player on Earth and has been omnipresent at times in the past, and which fully covers some moons in our solar system. We will focus particularly on i) how sea ice shapes the distinct identity of polar oceans and atmospheres in terms of physics, biogeochemistry, and ecosystems; ii) the physical and chemical characteristics at micro- to decameter scale that make sea ice a unique ecosystem; iii) the biodiversity sea ice supports within itself and in the ocean; iv) the evolutionary mechanisms sea ice can promote; and v) what it tells us about the potential for life on the icy moons of the solar system. All these topics will be addressed while considering the current and future consequences of climate change. Finally, we will discuss the role that sea ice plays in certain human civilizations. Twenty eight years after the very first conference of this series chaired by Stephen F. Ackley on Sea Ice Ecology, we revisit this crucial element of polar seas, enriched by three decades of discoveries. Following the tradition of the conferences in this series, we will also address the ocean and atmosphere, and delve into physics, chemistry, and biology, all while systematically emphasizing the connections with sea ice. The comparison between the Arctic and the Antarctic will allow us to discern, from these two very different oceans, how the presence of sea ice changes their faces, possibly in similar ways.

The fourth and final Arctic Academy for Sustainability funded by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation will take place as a PhD course.The topic of the final Academy is 'The role of stakeholders as a regulatory force for sustainable natural resource usage'. 'Stakeholders' is understood broadly, and the course will have particular regard to affected stakeholders and rights-holders. The course is taught by a diverse group of senior and junior members of the TN.  Please note that for this Academy, the application format is a little different from the earlier ones, as applicants will need to provide their motivated application as well as the application for mobility support in the application module online (through the link above) and not in letters sent directly to the organisers.
