These numbers — the values of the Ramanujan tau-function — have been the guiding force for several themes in number theory and still pose simple\, open problems today. This talk\, delivered by visiting Libra Professor Eknath Ghate\, will be a relaxed introduction to these numbers. \n91¸ŁŔű the Speaker: Professor Ghate is a Senior Professor at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai\, India. He has spent his career chasing the deep and still-mysterious links between modular forms and Galois representations. In 2013 he received the Bhatnagar Prize\, India’s highest science honor. \nThis event will take place in Hill Auditorium in Barrows Hall. It is free and open to the public.

TIME is an immersive journey through the nature of time – from daily rhythms of nature to its role in the structure of the Universe. It follows humanity’s attempts to measure time and explores modern physics\, where relativity\, entropy\, and spacetime challenge our intuitive understanding of the present. In the end\, the film turns to human perception\, inviting viewers to reflect on how we choose to spend our time.\n\n\nTickets for planetarium programs are $9 for Adults\, $8 for 91¸ŁŔű Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $7 for children under 12.
