Venue: Lecture Hall, Institute For Advanced Study in Mathematics, Zijingang CampusSpeaker: Prof. Zhang Lei, National University of SingaporeAbstract: In this talk, we introduce a notion of arithmetic wavefront sets for admissible representations of classical groups over local fields of characteristic 0. Conjecturally, via local Langlands correspondence, this arithmetic wavefronts coincide with the classical wavefront sets in sense of Harish-Chandra characters. Hence this conjecture proposes an algorithm to explicate the wavefront sets of representations in generic L- packets, by computing local symplectic root numbers. In particular, we verify the analogue conjectures over finite fields. This is a joint project with Dihua Jiang (The University of Minnesota), Dongwen Liu (Zhejiang University), Zhicheng Wang (Soochow University).

Speaker: Dr. Yang Shiyu, an Assistant Professor of Management at the Texas A&M International UniversityVenue: 723, Building A, School of ManagementAbstract: Watching movies is among the most popular entertainment and cultural activities. As Hollywood calls for increasing representation of racial minority actors, how do viewers react when a movie sequel adds racial minority actors to the main cast? On the one hand, such sequels may receive better ratings if viewers appreciate racially inclusive casting for its moral appeal (the fairness perspective for diversity) and novel elements (the value-in-diversity perspective). On the other hand, consumer discrimination research suggests that if viewers harbor bias against racial minorities, sequels that increase racial minority actors may receive worse ratings. Analyzing a novel dataset of 435 movies nested in 173 series released from 1998 to 2021, we find that increasing racial minority actors in the main cast hurts movie ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb. We also rule out two alternative explanations: (a) viewers dislike cast change per se; (b) the added racial minority actors have lower credentials. Text analysis of 312,457 movie reviews shows that the negative effect of racial minority increase on movie ratings is mediated by toxic language in movie reviews. Importantly, the negative effect of racial minority increase is mitigated by the Black Lives Matter movement, and this bias mitigation effect exists for both Black and non-Black minority actors, indicating the power of social movements in fostering equity and inclusion.Speaker's profile: Dr. Yang is an Assistant Professor of Management at the Texas A&M International University. She received her Ph.D. in Business Administration from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. She earned a master’s degree in Management, a bachelor’s degree in Economics, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Peking University. Her current research investigates how social movements and social structures can eliminate social disparity and lead to meaningful changes in public responses to inclusion initiatives. Dr. Yang’s works have been published in major social science journals and under review in leading business and psychology journals.

Venue: 723, Building A, School of Management, Zijingang CampusSpeaker: Liao Zhenyu, Assistant Professor, Northeastern UniversityAbstract: This paper proposes that speakers of languages with strong honorific rules are more deferential to existing ideas and are less likely to initiate new ideas. Some languages require systemic grammatical encodings of social status (i.e., honorific rules) to express deference to the addresses or referents (e.g., Japanese, Korean), while others do not (e.g., English, Hebrew). We suggest that languages with strong honorific rules induce speakers to defer to existing ideas, thereby restraining them from engaging in new ideas. To empirically test this proposition, we first analyzed responses of more than 140 thousand individuals who spoke 166 distinct languages in the World Values Survey, finding that speakers of strong honorific languages were less likely to engage in new ideas. We then conducted a venture idea generation experiment with Korean speakers and found that using the same language, participants who adopted honorific expressions, as compared with those who adopted non-honorific expressions, were less likely to take initiatives to propose new venture ideas. This decreased the degree of novelty and business value of new venture ideas generated by them. Our findings cast light on how linguistic rules shape our social interactions and knowledge production.Speaker's Profile: Zhenyu Liao is the Joseph G. Riesman Assistant Professor and Thomas E. Moore Fellow at the D’Amore-McKim School of Business, Northeastern University. He earned his Ph.D. from the National University of Singapore and completed his post-doctoral fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis. He studies leadership, ethics, inequality, and entrepreneurship. He serves on the editorial boards of Academy of Management Journal and Journal of Applied Psychology and has reviewed for many other leading management journals.
