Fano manifolds are complex projective manifolds having positive first Chern class. The positivity condition on the first Chern class has far reaching geometric and arithmetic implications. For instance, Fano manifolds are covered by rational curves, and families of Fano manifolds over one dimensional bases always admit holomorphic sections. In recent years, there has been some effort towards defining suitable higher analogues of the Fano condition. Higher Fano manifolds are expected to enjoy stronger versions of several of the nice properties of Fano manifolds.

In this talk, I will discuss higher Fano manifolds which are defined in terms of positivity of higher Chern characters. After a brief survey of what is currently known, I will present recent joint work with Carolina Araujo, Roya Beheshti, Kelly Jabbusch, Svetlana Makarova, Enrica Mazzon and Nivedita Viswanathan, regarding toric higher Fano manifolds. I will explain a strategy towards proving that projective spaces are the only higher Fano manifolds among smooth projective toric varieties.

In this open lecture, Professor Daniel H. Solomon will cover current clinical controversies in gout, focusing on implications of the disease beyond the joint.

For millennia, origami and kirigami artists have used folds and cuts to create beautiful shapes from a simple sheet of paper. I will describe our recent scientific attempts to catch up with these remarkably imaginative arts phrased as inverse problems in physical geometry that aim to control the shape and rigidity of a thin surface. Using discrete operations that vary the number, size, orientation and coordination of folds and cuts, I will show how to create piecewise isometric kirigami and origami tessellations and control their local and global morphology and mechanical response, mixing experimental, computational and theoretical approaches.

Democratisation is arguably Taiwan¡¯s most significant achievement since 1945. This lecture addresses the impact of cultural democratisation by using Taiwan cinema as a case study.

Saeedeh Salimifar talks about presupposition projection:

 

Enriched enumerative geometry is a new area in which we take results in enumerative geometry over the complex numbers and refine them to give results over any base field. The "refinements" in question recover the classical results over algebraically closed fields but may also include arithmetic information about the base field. In this talk, I'll give an overview of a proof of an enriched refinement of the Yau-Zaslow formula for counting rational curves on K3 surfaces. Joint work with Jesse Pajwani.

In this lecture, the German philosopher Christian Gr¨¹ny will reflect upon the concept of Performance Art, exploring its possible relevance within contemporary art and music practices.

Research and public discourse about reproductive technologies tend to emphasize the experiences and practices of women. This seminar explores how men are implicated as users of emergent reproductive technologies.
