Archaeological Friday Seminar with Alexa Deanne Spiwak (IAKH).?
Bahra Rashidi presents an overview of her PhD project, with a primary focus on the first study which investigates syntactic variation in main clauses in spoken Norwegian.
Christophe Eloy is a Professor of Fluid Mechanics at Centrale Marseille and carries out his research at the IRPHE institute in Marseille. His research explores a wide range of fundamental problems in fluid and solid mechanics—from fluid–structure interactions and hydrodynamic instabilities to animal locomotion, aeroelasticity, rotating flows, and even plant biomechanics—using a blend of theory, experiments, and numerical simulations.
The Philosophical Seminar With Pauline Kleingeld (University of Groningen)
Since Ellingsrud and Peskine showed that there is an upper bound on the degree of smooth surfaces not of general type in P^4, there have been efforts to find them. I will give a survey of different methods of construction, and a list of the kind of surfaces known so far, reporting also on joint work with Hirotachi Abo and Frank-Olaf Schreyer to write a Macaulay2 package that produces equations of examples of each kind.

To each matroid we associate a class in the Chow ring of the Grassmannian. We develop a new combinatorial approach for computing these Chow classes, by first focusing on snake matroids and then extending our results via valuativity to Lattice path matroids, and further to any matroid. Our main contribution identifies the Poincaré dual of the Chow class of a snake matroid with a specific ribbon Schur function, providing an explicit formula for its coefficients in the Schubert basis as the number of standard Young tableaux of a given shape with a prescribed descent set. As consequences, we recover and simplify classical results such as Gessel--Viennot’s enumeration of permutations with fixed descent sets, and formulas for the volume of lattice path matroids. Furthermore, we use our results to show that certain Schubert coefficients are positive for all connected paving matroids.
