SUMMARY:Mathematics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Dear All\, \nThe Department of Mathematics invites you to a colloquium on September 30\, 2025 (Tuesday). \nTitle: Local fields and their finite extensions \nAbstract: We know that the field R of real numbers is a completion of the field Q of rational numbers.  About a hundred years ago\, it was discovered by Hensel that there are other completions of Q.  In fact\, there is a completion Q_p for each prime p\, and there are no others (Ostrowski).  Collectively\, fields such as R\, Q_p\, and their finite extensions are called local fields (of characteristics 0). \nThe local field R has only two finite extensions and C has only one (Gauss)\, but every other local field has infinitely many finite extensions.  Can we parametrise all finite extensions of other local fields?  This question will be the main topic of the Colloquium.   \nWe will show how to parametrise\, for a given local field K\, all extensions of prime degree and\, more generally\, all primitive extensions of K.  The notions of primitivity and ramification will be defined. \nWe look forward to your participation. \n

SUMMARY:ARCHIVING SOLIDARITIES Poster Women: A Visual History of the Women\'s Movement in India
DESCRIPTION:Dear All\, \nThe Department of Visual Arts is delighted to invite you to the third colloquium in the Visual Arts Colloquium Series\, Monsoon 2025. \nTitle: ARCHIVING SOLIDARITIES Poster Women: A Visual History of the Women's Movement in India \nSpeaker: Urvashi Butalia \, writer\, publisher and activist \nDate: Tuesday\, September 30th\, 2025 \nTime: 4.00 pm \nVenue: Visual Arts Studio (near sports block) \nAbstract: In 2005-6 Zubaan embarked on a journey to collect and archive feminist posters created across India. Among the questions they asked themselves was: how had the movement\, or the different campaigns in the movement\, imagined themselves? How had they communicated their priorities\, their messages\, in both words and pictures? How and where were these posters made? Who owned them? Did they represent a particular kind of aesthetic? This talk will engage with these questions and also look at the collective processes of putting together such an archive\, establishing ownership\, thinking of access and more. \nBio: Urvashi Butalia is co-founder of India’s first feminist publishing house\, Kali for Women (set up in 1984) and now steers Zubaan\, a leading feminist imprint\, set up in 2003. She has a long involvement in the women’s movement in India\, and is an independent researcher and writer who writes and publishes widely on a range of issues to do with gender. Among her best known publications are Speaking Peace: Women’s Voices from Kashmir (edited)\, Partition: The Long Shadow (edited) and the award-winning oral history of Partition: The Other Side of Silence: Voices from the Partition of India (winner of the Oral History Book Association Award 2001 and the Nikkei Asia Award for Culture 2003). She is currently working on the life of a hijra friend of hers\, Mona Ahmed. She is a recipient of several awards including the French Chevalier des Lettres et des Artes\, the Nikkei Asia Award for Culture\, the Goethe Medaille and the Padma Shri. \n  \nJoin us for an inspiring talk with Urvashi Butalia as she unpacks the visual history of India’s women’s movement through the powerful archive of feminist posters.  \nThe conversations will continue over tea/coffee after the talk. See you there! \n  \nwarm regards\, \nVisual Arts Department
