Colloquium Peter Smillie: Counting fullerenes with modular forms — an application of number theory to carbon chemistry
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Peter Smillie, Mathematical Institute, Heidelberg University Fullerenes are polyhedral molecules made of carbon atoms, first discovered in 1985. A few isomers are naturally occurring and many more have since been synthesised, with numerous applications across materials science, biology, and medicine. One source of theoretical interest in fullerenes is that there are a lot of […]
Colloquium Shimei Pan: Bias and Fairness in AI
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Shimei Pan, Information Systems Department of UMBC, Baltimore, USA The emergence of advanced AI technologies, such as Deep Learning and ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize the way we work, live, and interact with each other, potentially bringing a profound transformation of our society. Thus, it is imperative that we ensure the responsible development […]

The 7th SIMPLAIX internal project meeting will take place at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
Colloquium Victor M. Panaretos: Sums of Squares from Pythagoras to Hilbert via Fisher
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Victor M. Panaretos, Institute of Mathematics, EPFL, Switzerland For one hundred years, the analysis of variance has been at the core of statistical inference. Though Fisher first distilled the notion circa 1920, its roots go much deeper in time, and ultimately lie in some of the most elemental concepts of geometry. This, in turn, […]
Colloquium Jürgen Knödlseder: The carbon footprint of astronomical research infrastructures
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Jürgen Knödlseder, IRAP, GAHEC, Toulouse, France The carbon footprint of astronomical research is an increasingly topical issue with first estimates of research institute and national community footprints having recently been published. As these assessments generally do not take into account the contribution of astronomical research infrastructures, we propose to complement them by providing […]
HITS-IMK Joint Colloquium Adrian Raftery: Downscaled Probabilistic Climate Change Projections, with Application to Hot Days
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Adrian E. Raftery, Department of Statistics, University of Washington, Seattle, USA This colloquium is organized jointly with the Institute of Meteorology and Climate Research (IMK), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The climate change projections of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are based on scenarios for future emissions, but these are not statistically […]

FAIRDOM User Meeting
OnlineThe purpose of the FAIRDOM user meetings is to establish an active FAIRDOM user community to allow networking between various FAIRDOM-SEEK users and learn from each other’s experiences. Within the two-hours event invited users will showcase the use of FAIRDOMHub and other FAIRDOM-SEEK instances for their research projects. After the presentations we’ll have plenty of […]
Colloquium Philipp Podsiadlowski: How Stars End Their Lives
Studio Villa Bosch Schloss-Wolfsbrunnenweg 33, Heidelberg, GermanyBy Philipp Podsiadlowski, Stellar Astrophysics, University of Oxford, UK While the basic evolution of stars has been understood for many decades, there are still major uncertainties in our theoretical understanding of how stars end their lives, both in the context of low- and intermediate-mass stars (including the Sun) and massive stars. After reviewing some […]
