SUMMARY:Castro\, S. (CSE) - Agentic AI for Security: Adversarial Foundations for Autonomous Cyber Operations
DESCRIPTION:Autonomous Cyber Operations (ACO) agents promise effective security automation with minimal human intervention\, yet their deployment raises three interconnected challenges: agents must be realistic (reproducing diverse attacker sophistication)\, secure (preventing autonomy from becoming an attack surface)\, and feasible (safely replicating human behavior at full autonomy). \nWe argue that these three properties are requirements for ACO agents. Existing approaches do not address them together and lack diverse adversarial coverage\, formal threat models for attacks against the agents themselves\, and systematic evaluation of multi-agent topologies. \nWe advance all three ACO properties: (1) For realism\, we establish adversarial foundations by discovering Windows OS vulnerabilities and releasing two exploits reliable across XP through 11. (2) For security\, we formalize ACO meta-attacks and meta-defenses\, propose the first invariant-based Meta-IDS detecting both sensor and actuator meta-attacks\, and introduce the first hybrid LLM–RL ACO integration for defense with a novel inter-agent communication protocol. (3) For feasibility\, we present MaLO\, the first dynamic-topology multi-agent ACO system\, achieving a 78.6\% success rate across a new 42-task security benchmark and solving operations up to 40× faster than human experts. We further propose the Security Operation Complexity Index (SOCX) classification and the T×V×O taxonomy as the first objective-driven evaluation methodology for coding-agent attacks. \nTogether\, these contributions demonstrate that ACO agents can match real-world adversarial sophistication\, resist meta-attacks\, and outperform human operators on complex security tasks. Open challenges remain in adaptive adversaries\, LLM–RL co-training\, dynamic topology selection\, and deployment beyond simulated environments. \n  \nEvent Host:  Sebastián R. Castro\, PhD Candidate\, Computer Science & Engineering \nAdvisor: Alvaro A. Cárdenas \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/2267557290?pwd=S0dNTTV3emZGUzlqV3dLbTg3a0NFUT09&omn=92791061627 \nPasscode: G20c06

SUMMARY:CSE Colloquium - Learning to Image: Computational Microscopy for Dynamic Systems
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Laura Waller\, UC Berkeley \nAbstract: \nComputational imaging jointly designs hardware and algorithms to push beyond the classical limits of imaging\, enabling measurement of new quantities (e.g. 3D\, phase\, and super-resolution) with simple\, inexpensive hardware. These approaches have already transformed consumer photography; our goal is to achieve a similar transformation in scientific microscopy. \nIn this talk\, I will show how end-to-end learning is reshaping the design of imaging systems\, from programmable illumination with LED arrays to compact\, lensless cameras built from Scotch tape. By combining physical models with neural networks\, we can jointly learn how to capture data\, reconstruct images\, and self-calibrate systems that would otherwise be too complex to model. However\, many computational methods rely on multiple measurements\, limiting their use for live\, dynamic samples. I will introduce new space-time algorithms based on implicit neural representations (INRs) that jointly recover structure and motion\, correct artifacts\, and enable high-resolution imaging in regimes where traditional approaches fail. \nBio: \nLaura Waller is the Charles A. Desoer Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley. She received B.S.\, M.Eng. and Ph.D. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2004\, 2005 and 2010. After that\, she was a Postdoctoral Researcher and Lecturer of Physics at Princeton University from 2010-2012. She is a Packard Fellow for Science & Engineering\, Moore Foundation Data-driven Investigator\, OSA Fellow\, and Chan-Zuckerberg Biohub Investigator. She has received the Carol D. Soc Distinguished Graduate Mentoring Award\, OSA Adolph Lomb Medal\, the SPIE Early Career Award and the Max Planck-Humboldt Medal. \nHosted by: Professor Alvaro Cardenas \nLocation: Engineering 2\, Room E2-180 (Refreshments such as fruit\, pastries\, coffee\, and tea will be provided.) \nZoom Option: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/93445911992?pwd=YkJ2TQtF79h0PcNXbEcpZLbpK0coiY.1&jst=3

SUMMARY:“So\, There We Were...” – Celebrating the Untold Stories Behind the Discoveries
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate another year of profound discoveries\, uplifting unheard voices\, and opening up the world for the next generation of students\, the Academic Senate is planning a year-end celebratory event on Wednesday\, May 27\, 5-7:30 pm (week 9)\, at the Haybarn. But lest you think this is yet one more end-of-year academic event with mind-numbing presentations and hard-to-read powerpoint slides\, think again. This Scholarly Event is an excuse for us to do what we never get to do: come together to share the real stories behind our work and\, most of all\, HAVE FUN! In this spirit we are launching a celebratory event to feature the true but unknown\, the odd\, the awkward\, and just plain unbelievable stories behind our research: \n“So\, There We Were…”\nCelebrating the Untold Stories Behind the Discoveries \n \nThese might be the adventures\, misadventures\, revelations\, miscues\, or simply the “you would never believe it all worked out” moments that we have all experienced but rarely talk about (at least not in public). These are the stories that our friends\, neighbors\, and students want to hear\, but never would make it into scholarly publications or presentations. These are the stories we swap with our colleagues over drinks. While this event is intended primarily for faculty\, the campus community and community members will be welcome to attend (in other words\, feel free to bring your kids\, your partner\, your neighbors). \n \nWe are therefore soliciting applications (or nominations if you know someone—including yourself—who really needs to share that story) to regale your colleagues with details about “that time that…(fill in the blank)\,” while showing how those hidden moments shaped what finally came out of that research. This is meant to be a lighthearted and fun event\, so while having the audience learn something about what you do and why it is SO COOL is very good\, our focus will remain on humor\, fun\, and engaging tales. As the Ig Nobel Awards put it: “First make them laugh…then make them think!” \nPresenters will give a ~10 min TED style talk. Talks must begin with the phrase “So\, there we were” (or “So\, there I was” ) and they should feature the adventurous\, the bizarre\, and ideally the humorous in your research. Absolutely no tedious powerpoints\, jargon\, or literature background review will be allowed.  \n \nA reception will follow. Or it may precede\, or even take place during\, the event. But rest assured\, we will be celebrating in style. \n \nNB: There may well be prizes. But we have not gotten quite that far yet.

SUMMARY:UCSC Opera—Orpheus in the Underworld
DESCRIPTION:A rollicking and irreverent spoof of the Orpheus myth\, Jacques Offenbach’s Orpheus in the Underworld is most famous as the origin of the “gallop infernal”—the music now strongly associated with the can-can dance. This operetta follows the unhappy (and unfaithful) union of Orpheus and Eurydice\, as the latter’s love affair with the god of the underworld results in Eurydice relocating to hell. Cowed by Public Opinion\, Orpheus makes an attempt to retrieve his wife from the underworld\, but Jupiter’s involvement\, along with many of the other gods of Olympus\, complicates matters further.  \nThe UCSC Orchestra ensemble and voice students are conducted by Bruce Kiesling\, with direction by Sheila Willey.\nCostumes by Brooke Jennings\, wigs by Sharon Ridge\, and set/lighting design by David Dunning.\n—\nADMISSION\n– Attend in person at the UCSC Music Center Recital Hall.\n– General admission opera tickets available online through Eventbrite.\n– Free for UCSC students (ticket required).\n– Follow the Music Department on Eventbrite for notices and updates.\n– Doors are scheduled to open 30 minutes prior to event start time.\n– Ticket holders not seated at least 5 minutes before the advertised start time may forfeit their ticket/seat and no refund will be issued.\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS\n– Th.\, May 28\, 7:30 p.m.\n– Fr.\, May 29\, 7:30 p.m.\n– Sa.\, May 30\, 7:30 p.m.\n– Su.\, May 31\, 3:00 p.m. matinee\n—\nPARKING\n– Parking by permit\, ParkMobile\, or $11 cash/credit via the on-site parking attendant.\n– Arts Lot #126 is the closest parking lot to the event\n– Visitors with DMV placards or plates may park for free in DMV spaces\, Medical spaces\, or ParkMobile spaces without additional payment\, or in timed zones for longer than the posted time.\n– UCSC affiliates must purchase their permits before arriving at the event in order to receive their discounted UCSC rate.

SUMMARY:Zhu\, R. (ECE) - From Neuromorphic Principles to Efficient Neural Language Architectures
DESCRIPTION:This dissertation investigates how neuromorphic and brain-inspired principles can guide the design of efficient neural language architectures. It addresses two central limitations of modern Transformer-based language models: memory growth with context length and high computational cost from dense matrix multiplication. Through studies of spiking neural networks\, linear-recurrent language models\, hybrid attention architectures\, MatMul-free models\, and looped language models\, the dissertation develops practical approaches for bounded-memory and bounded-compute language modeling. The central conclusion is that recurrent state\, temporal decay\, sparse computation\, and parameter reuse can provide useful design principles for scalable language models\, even when they are abstracted beyond literal biological spiking. \nEvent Host: Ridger Zhu\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Electrical & Computer Engineering  \nAdvisor: Jason Eshraghian \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/96672322005?pwd=3MSitgbm5WboIENbf1hKpxwXnt9VXh.1

SUMMARY:STANLEY FLATTÉ MEMORIAL LECTURE: CHAOS\, BLACK HOLES\, AND QUANTUM MECHANICS
DESCRIPTION:CHAOS\, BLACK HOLES\, AND QUANTUM MECHANICS \nThe world is a chaotic place. Even if we know the rules of nature\, we often find it difficult to predict the future – forecasting the weather is a notorious example. Recently\, we have understood that chaos plays a central role in the behavior of black holes\, some of the most striking objects in our universe. We will describe these developments and indicate some new insights they have led to in our quest to unify quantum mechanics and the theory of gravity. \nAbout the speaker: Stephen Shenker has been on the faculty of the University of Chicago and Rutgers University\, and is currently the Richard Herschel Weiland Professor at Stanford University. He is a theoretical physicist who has worked on problems ranging from the theory of phase transitions to the nonperturbative formulation of quantum gravity. He is a recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship\, the Onsager Prize and the Dirac Medal\, and is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences. From 1998 to 2009\, he was the Director of the Stanford Institute for Theoretical Physics. \nFriday\, May 29\, 2026 \nThe 418 Project\, 155 River St S\, Santa Cruz\, CA 95060 \n6:00 PM – 7:00 PM\, Refreshments provided prior to talk at 5 PM. \nThis event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Book Talk: Learning to Lead with Dr. Veronica Terriquez
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Labor and Community and UCSC Sociology Department welcome Dr. Veronica Terriquez for a discussion on her recently published book\, Learning to Lead: Youth Organizing in Immigrant Communities. The event will take place on Monday\, June 1 at 12pm at the Rachel Carson Red Room. \nChildren of immigrants make up more than one in four people in the United States under the age of thirty. Amid today’s multipronged attacks on immigrant communities and growing threats to democratic participation\, these young people often encounter significant barriers to political participation. Despite these challenges\, some children of immigrants and refugees engage in nonpartisan grassroots campaigns\, addressing issues such as education\, health\, environmental justice\, immigrant rights\, housing\, and voting rights. In Learning to Lead\, sociologist Veronica Terriquez examines how youth organizing groups facilitate the civic and political engagement of low-income\, second-generation immigrant adolescents\, enabling them to collectively exercise power alongside their non-immigrant peers and adult allies. \nAbout the Author \nDr. Veronica Terriquez is professor of urban planning\, Chicana/o studies\, and Central American studies at UCLA and serves as the director of the Chicano Studies Research Center. A sociologist by training\, her research focuses on social inequality\, civic engagement\, health\, and youth transitions to adulthood among Latinx and other diverse populations. She has extensive experience working with a broad range of community stakeholders\, having partnered with youth\, labor\, arts\, education\, health and local government institutions. She is an expert in participatory action research (PAR)\, and has co-authored with colleagues and students over forty widely disseminated research reports on labor\, community\, and youth organizing. In 2021\, she received the American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education University Faculty Award and the American Sociological Association Award for Public Sociology in International Migration.\n\n

SUMMARY:Seminar Series | What you may not know about groundwater management in California with Ruth Langridge
DESCRIPTION:Host: ENVS Personnel Committee \nGroundwater is a critical source of California’s water supply. Many basins in critical overdraft are now being managed under the 2015 Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) to support state goals of sustainable and equitable management. However\, court adjudicated basins that encompass over 8\,000 square miles and are home to nearly 11 million people\, over 4 million of whom live in disadvantaged and economically vulnerable communities\, are not managed under SGMA but under court judgments. The groundwater basins in the entire San Gabriel River Watershed and large areas of the Santa Ana Watershed in Southern California are adjudicated. Our research evaluated how management of these important groundwater basins under a court appointed Watermaster is aligned with state sustainability and equity goals as expressed in SGMA. \nIn person and on Zoom \nMeeting ID:  949 5253 7079 \nPasscode: 552886

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: Using Math and Experiments to Study the Control of Cell Metabolism
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Denis Titov\, Assistant Professor\, University of California\, Berkeley \nDescription: Cells run thousands of chemical reactions simultaneously\, and these reactions must be precisely controlled—like a thermostat that prevents overheating. When this control fails\, diseases including diabetes\, cardiovascular disease\, and fatty liver disease result. One key control mechanism is allosteric regulation\, where a small molecule binds to an enzyme and changes its activity. Allosteric regulation is among the most conserved features of cellular life\, yet the functions it serves remain one of the oldest unsolved problems in biology. Several roles have been proposed\, but since the discovery of allostery in the 1950s\, no one has systematically disabled it in metabolic enzymes and measured the consequences. Four technological advances now converge to make this possible. CRISPR enables precise genome editing of allosteric sites. Structural biology has mapped which residues to target. LC-MS metabolomics makes metabolic phenotyping routine. The speed of modern computers enables detailed modeling of allosteric regulator function. In this talk\, I will describe our work developing and testing the first-in-class biophysical model of a metabolic pathway that accurately predicts responses to the addition or removal of allosteric regulators. Our work provides a framework for developing predictive models of cell metabolism that can be used for drug development or for engineering cells for energy production and chemical synthesis. Within a decade\, we plan to develop a model that accurately predicts metabolic activity in any human cell type under any condition. \nAbout the speaker: Denis Titov is an Assistant Professor at the University of California Berkeley with joint appointments in the Department of Metabolic Biology and Nutrition\, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology\, and Center for Computational Biology. Dr. Titov’s long-term research dream is to improve the understanding of human metabolic pathway regulation to a point where we can accurately predict metabolic pathway activity in any cell type\, under any condition\, and in response to any perturbation. Dr. Titov is interested in the following broad questions: How does metabolic homeostasis emerge from the activities of individual enzymes? What trade-offs drove the evolution of specific metabolic pathways and their control mechanisms? How to effectively combine data and biophysical models to simulate metabolic pathways? To tackle these questions\, Titov lab is using a combination of biochemistry\, mathematical modeling\, physiology\, custom instrumentation\, and genetically encoded tool development to study metabolism in mammalian cells and reconstituted biochemical systems. \nThis seminar is hosted by Professor Nilah Ioannidis.

SUMMARY:Kordonowy\, S. (CS) - The Role of Circuits in Near-Term Quantum Computation
DESCRIPTION:As quantum computing transitions from theory to practice\, understanding which algorithms suit near-term devices becomes critical. Current quantum computers are severely constrained by limited qubit counts\, short coherence times\, and high error rates that quickly degrade computation into noise. This thesis addresses two interconnected questions: what non-trivial computational tasks can near-term devices execute and how should algorithms be implemented to exploit available hardware? We examine circuit design as the bridge between these concerns\, analyzing how gate choices determine algorithmic efficiency and computational hardness. By deriving explicit circuit constructions\, we obtain tangible cost estimates for practical quantum computation\, enabling precise comparisons to classical approaches and identification of break-even points in system size and error rates. Understanding these trade-offs is essential for near-term quantum computing\, where experiments are expensive and error-prone. \nWe apply these ideas to three domains:\n1. Streaming: we provide circuit implementations for the Boolean Hidden Matching problem\, a combinatorial problem which exhibits exponential space separation compared to classical algorithms. We give explicit resource estimates and experimentally validate on Quantinuum’s trapped-ion hardware. We demonstrate that quantum advantage persists even when accounting for error correction overhead. \n2. Variational eigensolving: We examine how gate set choices influence trainability of variational quantum eigensolvers and provide Lie algebraic decompositions for differing gate sets. These decompositions are in turn used as a warm-starting heuristic to overcome barren plateaus\, a common problem in quantum machine learning tasks\, and improve convergence. We apply this technique to three combinatorial problems with primary focus on portfolio optimization. \n3. Cryptography: We develop a digital signature scheme based on circuit learning hardness and classical shadows. Error detection plays a direct role in the circuits considered\, with a focus on practical implementation for near-term devices. \nThese case studies demonstrate how careful circuit design can either mitigate near-term\nconstraints or expose where error correction becomes necessary to achieve quantum\nadvantage. \n  \nEvent Host: Steven Kordonowy\, Ph.D. Candidate\, Computer Science  \nAdvisor: Alexandra Kolla  \nZoom: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/9524731001?pwd=MzdrNmhidVBsTXNFbktBcjEvNmZIQT09&omn=96338496668  \nPasscode: J29XGi \n  \n
