SUMMARY:The Narasimhan Seshadri Theorem and Some of its Ramifications
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:The Narasimhan-Seshadri Theorem is one of the spectacular theorems from India in the past 50 years or so. The theorem is more than a deep result but is in a way a philosophy or correspondences and symmetries. The theorem has had an impact on several aspects of mathematics. The theorem has also led to developments along lines that are similar but by themselves are also deep and central. Since the talk is for a general audience\, I plan to give an overview of the theorem\, a few of its big impacts on topology and geometry\, and a few of its ramifications in terms of generalizations.

SUMMARY:Learn the abilities of Self Improvement and Stress Assessment
DESCRIPTION:A two-day workshop on Self Improvement and Stress Assessment is being organised by the Department of Student Affairs on September 23 and 24\, 2021\, at 6.45 pm. Dr Sayeda Afreen\, Assistant Professor\, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences\, Assam Down Town University\, Guwahati\, Assam\, will speak on September 23 on “Self Improvement”. The following day will feature Dr Asha Sarma\, Assistant Professor (Programme Coordinator of Psychology)\, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences\, Assam Down Town University\, Guwahati\, Assam\, who will speak on “Stress Assessment”. \nTaking care of yourself will help maintain your physical\, emotional\, and mental reserves to prevent and manage stress. Effective stress management helps you break the hold stress has on your life to make you happier\, healthier\, and more productive. The ultimate goal for one is to have a balanced life\, with time for work\, relationships\, relaxation\, and fun—and the resilience to hold up under pressure and meet challenges head-on. \nAn exciting and vibrant college life also comes with various challenges that a student needs to deal with. This\, in turn\, also contributes to stress\, one’s self-esteem issue and coping mechanism. These factors can escalate and hamper a student’s academic performance\, emotional and social well-being. Students are very likely to face some or many stressors that may test their adaptability\, including adjusting to a new environment\, balancing heavy workload\, making new friends\, becoming more independent and dealing with other issues. These complicated years can also have the presence of stress\, low self-esteem and anxiety\, due to which there is a dire need for Self-awareness and Stress management among college-going students. Self-improvement is the improvement of one’s knowledge\, status\, or character by one’s own efforts. It is the quest to make an individual better in any and every facet of life. Therefore\, the topic mentioned above of the workshop is an attempt to help college-going students to have a better understanding of “Self” and general underlying causes of “Stress” in order to work towards Self-Improvement and Stress Assessment.

SUMMARY:Algorithms as the game-changer in the digital era
DESCRIPTION:Industrie 4.0 has become increasingly global and cross-industry\, driving digital transformation across industries\, businesses\, and governments. SRM University-AP observes National Engineers’ day with an inspiring talk by Mr Dasari Ramakrishna\, Managing Director\, Efftronics Systems Pvt. Ltd.\, on September 15\, 2021\, at 06.45 pm. \nThe heartbeat of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is algorithms. While algorithms are not new\, the transition of businesses to be algorithmic is game-changing. Mathematicians describe an algorithm as an encapsulated set of rules that act on data to determine an outcome. In today’s digitalized world\, companies use algorithms on a daily basis to influence and support decisions (fact-based decision making). In system development\, algorithms building is the most challenging and major activity. Often engineers are expected to build completely new algorithms which are not available in the market (internet). One should adopt commonly available algorithms when required. But what is more important is to use various algorithmic concepts/principles together in combination to build a new algorithm. Like any development\, algorithms building also follows the cycle of defining\, analysing\, designing\, implementing\, and testing iteratively in a systematic way. If one had to build algorithmic thinking\, they need to practice with different scenarios\, reflect upon the results and experiment continuously. \nEvery year on September 15\, India commemorates Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya’s accomplishments by observing National Engineers Day. Visvesvaraya\, the Bharat Ratna awardee\, was born in the Karnataka village of Muddenahalli on September 15\, 1861. As a pioneer in engineering\, he made numerous contributions to the infrastructural backbone of the country. \nAbout the Speaker:\nMr Dasari Ramakrishna is the founding CEO of Efftronics Systems Pvt. Ltd.\, established in 1985. Backed by rich R&D\, Efftronics is now a leading provider of smart solutions for railway signalling\, smart cities\, smart buildings and industries. He is the architect of one of India’s largest IoT networks built for Indian railways with more than 6 million things connected across 9000 locations. He is a continuous learner & thought leader. Under his leadership\, Efftronics has innovated more than 50 solutions for different domains. By continually growing Efftronics\, Mr Ramakrishna has proved to the Indian industry that “With right aspirations and sincere effort to deliver value to customers\, it is possible to be successful and location doesn’t matter.” He is the former chairman of CII- A.P State Council. He serves as a member of the board of studies\, academic councils and governing body for several educational institutions and advisor for various universities. \nJoin this rekindling session on September 15\, 2021\, at 06.45 pm to understand the complexities of algorithm building.

DESCRIPTION:The Department of Mathematics is organising the first episode of the Distinguished Lecture Series on September 15\, 2021\, Wednesday\, at 6.30 pm. Prof Suman Chakraborty from the Department of Mechanical Engineering\, IIT Kharagpur\, will deliver a lecture titled “Flipping with the Flow – Perspectives of Puzzling Fluid Dynamics and Human Health”. \nAbstract of the Lecture:\nOver the past century\, advancements in fluid dynamics hallmarked deeper studies on complex fluids\, though. Fluid dynamics of blood\, possibly the most critical complex fluid impacting human lives\, is primarily dictated by red blood cells (RBCs) that are flexible biconcave discs spending their lives suspended in blood plasma that is elusively more complex than simple water. Commonly\, RBCs stack together to form structures called rouleaux like cylindrical packs of coins that reform continuously. Contrary to intuition\, instead of clogging\, such reforms result in the easier flow of blood as it passes through extremely narrow channels. An influential theoretical premise of blood flow has been rationalizing this by drawing analogies of RBCs with compound liquid droplets in which the cytoplasm is more viscous than the outer fluid that triggers a series of complex shape transitions. However\, a stiffening of RBC membranes under certain conditions contradicts this analogy and may alter ATP release that happens due to shape deformation. This may signify specific diseased conditions and influence a plethora of ailments ranging from cardiovascular irregularities to cancer metastasis. The role of unique flexibility of microvasculature and morphology of the microenvironment\, dynamical signals of pressure pulsation and disease-specific blood rheology make it extremely deceptive and patient-specific and difficult to model within the known territories of expertise of fluid dynamics. \nProf Suman Chakraborty will discuss here various computational\, in-vitro and in-vivo studies conducted in his research group that have attempted to address some of the pertinent outstanding questions\, unresolved paradoxes\, and will present a deeper challenge that makes even ‘simple’ blood flow strikingly more complicated than its intuitive analogy of pipe flow in engineering fluid mechanics. He will also suggest a way forward with a convergence of physics-based modelling and data science\, where blood flow is not merely perceived as an ‘inert’ physical phenomenon but recognized as an exclusive hallmark of ‘life’ with all individualism intrinsic to humans. \nAbout the Speaker:\nProf Suman Chakraborty received the prestigious Santi Swaroop Bhatnagar Prize and became the youngest Fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering. He has also been a Fellow at the Indian National Science Academy (INSA)\, Indian Academy of Sciences (IAS)\, and Indian National Academy of Science (NASI)\, in addition to being the recipient of the Indo-US Research Fellowship. He is also a recipient of the Scopus Young Scientist Award given by Elsevier for high citations in his research publications\, the Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship (2005)\, and the Young Scientist/Young Engineer Award from various National Academies. He has been bestowed with the Fellowship of the American Physical Society\, the Fellowship of the Royal Society of Chemistry\, and the Fellowship of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. \nJoin this educational session on September 15\, 2021\, at 6.30 pm to gain insights from the field expert.

SUMMARY:On Non-Vanishing of Modular L-Functions Inside the Critical Strip
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Holomorphic modular forms of (integral) weight k are analytic functions on the upper half-plane which are invariant under the action of certain discrete subgroups ? of SL2(R) and holomorphic at the cusps of ?. Hecke eigenforms are certain nice functions which span this finite-dimensional Hilbert Space and are simultaneous eigenfunctions corresponding to a class of nice operators on this space called Hecke Operators. The Fourier expansion of Hecke eigenforms around the cusps are arithmetically significant and demand the study of the Dirichlet L-series (and its analytic continuation) associated to it. Riemann Hypothesis in this context predicts that non-trivial zeros of their L function lie exactly on the line of symmetry

SUMMARY:Oxford Professor elucidates on the secession with natural resources
DESCRIPTION:The second episode of the lecture series organised by the Department of Economics\, SRM University-AP\, will be held on September 07\, 2021\, at 04.00 pm. The lecture titled “Secession with natural resources” will be delivered by Prof Pramila Krishnan from the Oxford Department of International Development. \nAbstract:\nThe lecture will look at the formation of new Indian states in 2001 to uncover the effects of political secession on the comparative economic performance of natural resource-rich and natural resource-poor areas. Resource-rich constituencies fared comparatively worse within new states that inherited a relatively larger proportion of natural resources. The study argues that these patterns reflect how political reorganization affected the quality of state governance of natural resources. Results describe a model of collusion between state politicians and resource rent recipients that can account for the relationships we see in the data between natural resource abundance and post-break-up local outcomes. \nAbout the Speaker:\nPramila Krishnan is a Professor of Development Economics at Oxford Department of International Development\, University of Oxford and a Fellow at Pembroke College\, Oxford. She began her academic life as an econometrician working on models of self-selection before seeing the light and moving on to work in development economics.\nHer research has concentrated on applied microeconomics and she has worked on topics ranging from household portfolios of poor households to risk-sharing\, intra-household allocation and informal insurance\, social networks\, non-cognitive skills and whether migrants might be both rich and happy. Pramila Krishnan teaches on the MSc in Economics for Development\, offering a module on education. \nJoin this intriguing online lecture on September 07\, 2021\, at 04.00 pm and enrich your knowledge through the scholarly voice of Prof Pramila Krishnan!

SUMMARY:Dr A T Biju unveils the mystery of Organocatalysis
DESCRIPTION:Chemistry Departmental Lecture Series brings another captivating webinar on “Organocatalysis Using N-Heterocyclic Carbenes (NHCs)”. Dr A T Biju\, Associate Professor\, Department of Organic Chemistry\, Indian Institute of Science\, Bengaluru\, will deliver the keynote address on Saturday\, September 04\, 2021\, at 11 am. \nAbstract\nCatalysis is a fundamentally sustainable process\, which can be used to produce a wide range of chemicals and their intermediates. Among the various catalytic methods\, N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed umpolung of aldehydes is widely used for unconventional access to target molecules. Moreover\, NHC-catalysis is known for umpolung of Michael acceptors\, but imine umpolung was unknown in this realm of catalysis. In this context\, Dr Biju and his team have demonstrated\, for the first time\, the NHC-catalyzed umpolung of imines for the synthesis of 2\,3-disubstituted indoles\, functionalized quinolines and dihydroquinoxalines. In addition\, NHC-catalysis is widely used for the generation of α\,β-unsaturated acylazoliums\, followed by their interception with various nucleophiles\, the formal [3+3] annulation reactions. In this area\, recently Dr Biju and his team have reported the enantioselective NHC-catalyzed annulation reactions for the synthesis of dihydropyranones\, dihydropyridinones\, cyclopentenes\, pyrazoles\, spirocyclohexadienones\, tricyclic δ-lactones\, tetracyclic indoles etc.\, where NHC-bound α\,β-unsaturated acylazoliums are the key intermediates. Very recently\, Dr Biju employed the umpolung of aldehydes for the synthesis of axially chiral C-N bond-containing molecules. The keynote address will shed further light on this. \nAbout the speaker\nDr A T Biju received his M Sc from Sacred Heart College Thevara (affiliated to MG University\, Kerala\, India) and PhD from CSIR-NIIST (Formerly RRL)\, Trivandrum\, India. After that\, he worked as a post-doctoral fellow with Prof. Tien-Yau Luh at the National Taiwan University\, Taipei. He has also worked as an Alexander von Humboldt fellow with Prof. Frank Glorius at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster\, Germany. In June 2011\, he began his independent research career at the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory\, Pune. He became an Associate Professor at the Department of Organic Chemistry\, Indian Institute of Science\, Bengaluru\, in June 2017. His research focuses on the development of transition-metal-free carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions using aryne chemistry and N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) organocatalysis and their application in organic synthesis. \nChemistry enthusiasts are welcomed to avail the opportunity to listen to him on Saturday\, September 04\, 2021\, at 11 am
