    Joint BHI/CMSA Conference on Flat Holography (and related topics)

    All day
    June 21, 2022-June 24, 2022
    CMSA, 20 Garden St, G10
    1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA

    On June 21–24, 2022, the Harvard Black Hole Initiative and the CMSA will host the Joint BHI/CMSA Conference on Flat Holography (and related topics).

    The recent discovery of infinitely-many soft symmetries for all quantum theories of gravity in asymptotically flat space has provided a promising starting point for a bottom-up construction of a holographic dual for the real world. Recent developments have brought together previously disparate studies of soft theorems, asymptotic symmetries, twistor theory, asymptotically flat black holes and their microscopic duals, self-dual gravity, and celestial scattering amplitudes, and link directly to AdS/CFT.

    The conference will be held in room G10 of the CMSA, located at 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA.

    All non-Harvard affiliated visitors to the CMSA building are required to complete this covid form prior to arrival: https://forms.gle/xKykcNcXq7ciZuvJ8

    CMSA Interdisciplinary Science Seminar: Some new algorithms in statistical genomics

    9:00 AM-10:00 AM
    June 23, 2022

    The statistical analysis of genomic data has incubated many innovations for computational method development. This talk will discuss some simple algorithms that may be useful in analyzing such data. Examples include algorithms for efficient resampling-based hypothesis testing, minimizing the sum of truncated convex functions, and fitting equality-constrained lasso problems. These algorithms have the potential to be used in other applications beyond statistical genomics.

    This seminar will be located in Science Center 530 and on Zoom.University of Michigan  For more details, please see: https://cmsa.fas.harvard.edu/interdisciplinary-science-seminar/
