Speaker: Ruobing Zhang, Department of Mathematics, Princeton UniversityVenue: Tencent Meeting ID: 811 438 125Abstract: This talk focuses on the recent resolution of three folklore conjectures in the field (joint with Song Sun). (1) Any volume collapsed limit of unit-diameter Calabi-Yau metrics on the K3 manifold is isometric to one of the following: a flat 3-torus quotient by revolution, a special Kähler metric on a 2-sphere, and the unit interval. (2) Any gravitational instanton, as a bubble limit, has one of the six asymptotic model geometries (with optimal asymptotic rates): ALE, ALF, ALG, ALG*, ALH, and ALH*. (3) Any gravitational instanton can be holomorphically compactified to be an open dense subset of a compact algebraic surface. With the above classification results, we obtain a rather complete picture of degenerating Calabi-Yau manifolds in complex dimension two.g

Speaker: Owen Griffiths, Department of Philosophy, University College LondonChair: Bruno Bentzen, School of Philosophy, Zhejiang UniversityVenue: Zoom meeting ID: 282 901 4273Watch Live: https://b23.tv/9YZ8UR5 Abstract:Ontological monists hold that all existents exist in exactly the same sense. Ontological pluralists hold that there are many different notions of existence, e.g. concrete objects like tables and chairs exist in a different way to abstract objects like numbers and sets. Correspondingly, the monist will want the familiar existential quantifier as a primitive logical constant, whereas the pluralist will want distinct ones, e.g. for abstract and concrete existence.This dialogue examines how the debate between the monist and pluralist relates to standard tests for logicality. We first consider the best-known semantic test for logicality—isomorphism invariance—and then the best-known syntactic test—inferentialism. In both cases, we argue that the tests deliver judgements about logicality that favour the monist.

Speaker: Daniel Rothschild, Professor of Philosophy of Language at University College LondonVenue: Zoom meeting ID: 2829014273Abstract: Many proponents of Bayesianism it as giving general norms governing how we should revise our beliefs in the light of new evidence. I argue for skepticism about the scope of Bayesian norms, arguing that their range of application may be restricted to a rather narrow range of cases. I examine other ways in which Bayesianism may be taken as a guide to our doxastic processes.

Speaker: SUN Liuquan, Chinese Academy of SciencesVenue: Tencent Meeting ID: 922-418-797Abstract: In this talk, we develop variable screening methods for several varying coefficient hazards models, including varying coefficient additive hazards model, varying coefficient Cox model, and the varying coefficient hazards models of single-index form. The proposed methods enjoy the sure screening property, and some iterative procedures are developed. Simulation studies are conducted to evaluate the finite sample performances of the proposed method. Applications to real dataexamples are also provided.

Time: 07:30-09:00 NEW YORK (GMT-4)13:30-15:00 GENEVA (GMT+2)19:30-21:00 BEIJING (GMT+8)Register HERE Session Concept NoteThe promotion of open science furnishes new avenues for the engagement, innovative culture, and quality assurance in the scaled-up graduate education for developing countries. These well-educated cohorts, female and male, will become vital force in economic development of the nations in Global South and form the backbone of its competitiveness and innovation. This side event intends to convene representatives from multi-stakeholders including top universities, global publishers, NGOs and academics to explore the interaction between Open Science and quality graduate education in Global South under South-South collaborations. Discussions are set around 1) transformative effects of open science to address pressing challenges of graduate education in Global South, especially under pandemic situation; 2) roles of international multi-stakeholders in preparing graduates from developing countries with the required qualities to become researchers nourished by open science; 3) the best practices of current/future collaborative models for quality graduate education in Global South, especially for women; and 4) a global effort for providing inclusive and affordable open data for Global South. This dialogue will forge a consensus over the concept of open science on graduate education in Global South and deliver valuable recommendations on next steps.
