This is China: The Military-Industrial Complex

This program, titled 'This is China,' offers an in-depth analysis of the American military-industrial complex. Through lectures and discussions, it explores the historical origins, evolution, and pervasive influence of this complex on American politics, society, and global affairs. The program delves into how the intertwining interests of the military, defense contractors, lobbying groups, think tanks, and media shape foreign policy and perpetuate conflict. Key themes include the economic drivers behind military spending, the role of the complex in technological advancements, its impact on domestic surveillance and civil liberties, and its methods of influencing public opinion both within the U.S. and internationally. The program aims to provide a critical understanding of how this complex operates and its consequences for global stability. Discussions also touch upon the broader implications of U.S. foreign policy, the concept of 'national security,' and the challenges in reforming a deeply embedded system. It contrasts the American approach with other international models and examines the long-term effects of military-driven economies.

Through women’s writing: connecting to others with kindness, 1748-1815

This Master of Philosophy (M.Phil.) program explores the concept of kindness as a fundamental aspect of social interaction and emotional practice in the lives of men and women between 1748 and 1815. It examines how kindness was understood and expressed through written documents like letters, diaries, and published works. The research utilizes emotional theory to analyze kindness as a tangible practice, moving beyond mere linguistic study to understand its cultural and social contexts. The thesis specifically focuses on women's diaries and letters, as well as the published literature of both genders, to analyze the multifaceted nature of kindness during this period. It identifies two primary ways kindness was performed: through actions and expressions, both influenced by Christian theology and secular ideology. This ideology positioned women as central to creating an orderly society, with feminine virtues emphasizing constant kindness. By engaging with written materials and social influences, women learned the intricacies of kindness, allowing them to adapt its ideals to assert their own needs and desires while maintaining a respectable social standing.

Time Based Design

TinyML: Enabling of Inference Deep Learning Models on Ultra-Low-Power IoT Edge Devices for AI Applications

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rapidly expanding, with billions of devices collecting data about their environments. While these devices are becoming more intelligent through Machine Learning (ML), their limited resources pose a challenge for complex Deep Learning (DL) models. Sending all data to the cloud for processing can lead to delays, privacy concerns, and increased communication costs. Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML) offers a solution by enabling the local processing of data and the inference of ML models directly on resource-constrained devices like microcontrollers. This paper reviews the current state of TinyML, analyzing the types of ML models used, datasets, and device characteristics to identify development needs and future directions.

Topics in Quantitative Rectifiability: Traveling Salesmen, Lipschitz Decompositions, Densities, and Big Pieces

This dissertation presents and proves a series of results in the field of quantitative rectifiability. It explores several key areas: the quantitative rectifiability of Jordan arcs in Hilbert spaces, with a focus on a traveling salesman beta number estimate; the existence of Lipschitz decompositions for domains with quantitatively flat boundaries; the regularity of Hausdorff measure on uniformly rectifiable metric spaces, proving the weak constant density condition; and the iteration of the big pieces operator in Ahlfors regular metric spaces, demonstrating stabilization after two iterations through a general extension theorem.

Topological Quantum Field Theories in Dimension Four

This dissertation explores Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) in four dimensions. It examines the Crane-Yetter theory through three distinct applications. First, it demonstrates the equivalence between Crane-Yetter theory and the Turaev shadow state sum as a 4-manifold invariant. Second, it investigates the values of Crane-Yetter theory for 2-manifolds, identifying these values as linear categories and describing their structures for oriented surfaces with at least one puncture. Finally, an application of Crane-Yetter theory to a problem within tensor categories is presented. The work builds upon previous research by the author and offers insights into representing mathematical objects and their relationships using advanced algebraic structures.
