Many real-world missions, however, require satisfying logical precedence constraints: collecting resources before accessing restricted zones, completing subtasks in a prescribed order, or acquiring tools before they can be used. This talk presents the augmented graph of convex sets (augmented GCS) framework, which unifies continuous trajectory optimization and combinatorial task sequencing within a single optimization problem.<br>\r\nThe key insight is that a layered augmented GCS, built on an exact convex partition of the free space, simultaneously selects an optimal task completion sequence and computes an optimal continuous trajectory. A shortest path in the augmented GCS solves both problems at once, yielding an exact solution up to a finite Bézier curve parameterization. The layered structure of the augmented GCS turns out to implement precisely the Bellman-Held-Karp (BHK) dynamic programming algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem, establishing a formal correspondence between our framework and the combinatorial TSP literature. This makes augmented GCS a continuous-geometry generalization of BHK, achieving the same singly exponential worst-case complexity, an exponential improvement over general-purpose temporal logic tools. We further develop a library of mission specification variations (including ordered collection, disjunctive keys, conjunctive doors, timed constraints, and conditional logic) each with proven correctness, substantially expanding the range of expressible mission types. Numerical experiments confirm exponential speedups in practice and near-global-optimality on a large benchmark suite.<br>\r\nTime permitting, I will briefly discuss ongoing extensions, including spacetime augmented GCS for dynamic environments, safety-aware planning via conformal prediction sets, and a galactic survey benchmark inspired by space mission planning that stress-tests the framework at scale.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography: </strong>Tyler Summers is an associate professor at the University of Texas at Dallas.

Bimodality is common, but trimodality—that is, the ability to successfully navigate between aerial, aquatic, and terrestrial environments—is relatively rare. Multimodality is also challenging to achieve in engineered devices, vehicles, and robots; however, several animals are capable of regularly (and easily) traversing environmental boundaries. In this talk, we will outline several of the general adaptations that living organisms use to locomote between land, air, and water. We will then present recent work on the biomechanics and fluid dynamics of trimodal aquatic insects. These insects exhibit hybrid walking-swimming gaits when transitioning from land to shallow water; they also leverage surface tension, buoyancy, fluid drag, and aerodynamic forces to take off into flight directly from the water surface. They also display underwater agility, using their legs as paddles to propel themselves rapidly as they seek prey and/or escape from predators. They also have interesting morphological features to enable these transitions, including superhydrophobic wings and hemelytra, as well as dense setae lining the metathoracic legs. These bristle-like features create shape-morphing appendages for efficient swimming, and are also used to lever the insect’s body off the deforming water surface during takeoff. In this talk, we will present data from all three locomotor modes and discuss their implications for both fundamental biology and ecology as well as bioinspired engineering and technology development.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography: </strong>Dr. Margaret L.

We leverage optogenetics, mechanical perturbations, and modeling to reveal a mechanochemical long-range mutual activation between front and back polarity programs that complements their known local mutual inhibition. Rac-driven protrusions increase membrane tension, triggering mTORC2-dependent Rho activation at the opposite side of the cell. Conversely, Rho-mediated contractility induces cortical-flow regulation of phosphoinositide signaling, promoting distal Rac activation. Our findings demonstrate how the actin cortex and plasma membrane interact as an integrated mechanochemical system for long-range Rac-Rho patterning. Efficient migration also requires polarized organization of the cell interior, with organelle positioning increasingly recognized as a key determinant of cell movement. Yet how this organization is established remains unclear. Building on our mechanochemical framework, we now investigate how actin-generated forces position organelles during migration and how disruption of this intracellular organization contributes to disease.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nWebsite of the De Belly lab: <a href=\"https://cri.utsw.edu/faculty/henry-de-belly/\">https://cri.utsw.edu/faculty/henry-de-belly/</a><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis is part of the Physics of Living Systems monthly symposium: <a href=\"https://pols.epfl.ch/physics-of-living-systems-seminars/monthly-symposium/\">https://pols.epfl.ch/physics-of-living-systems-seminars/monthly-symposium/</a></p>", "image_description": "Dr. Henry De Belly, UTSW", "creation_date": "2026-08-19T11:02:03", "last_modification_date": "2026-08-19T12:10:32", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/7467019292", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Dr. Henry De Belly, UTSW", "organizer": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos, EPFL", "contact": "Dr. Juan Manuel García-Arcos, [email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Mechanobiology, cell signalling, cell migration, mTORC2, Rho GTPases, cellular organization", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121471/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/111/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72757, "title": "Measurement of the differential branching fraction of B -> K pi pi mu mu at LHCb", "slug": "measurement-of-the-differential-branching-fracti-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/measurement-of-the-differential-branching-fracti-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33972/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33972/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33972/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-30", "end_date": "2026-10-30", "start_time": "17:30:00", "end_time": null, "description": "<p>Thesis Directors: Prof. L.
