==== 📓 Agenda📓 =====

6:30 - 7:00pm: Arrival, Food & Refreshments

7:00pm: Talks Start

🗣️ José Agustín de la Puente - How Go Compiles

It's easy to forget what happens when you run a compiler — and be unaware of what's happening under the hood and the trade-offs you're implicitly making.

It can also be intimidating to get into it because there's many moving parts: symbol tables, linking, a bunch of arcane utilities like nm and ldd, and more.

In this talk, my objective is to take you from no knowledge of how Go compiles to being confident to talk about and work on these problems.

I'll give a high-level overview of: - What is Go's compilation process with code examples - How you can use Unix utilities to examine binary outputs - What is static and dynamic linking\, and what are their trade-offs

🗣️ Yegor Stepanov - ParaGopher: A 2D Arcade Game

ParaGopher is a retro-style arcade game written in Go using Ebitengine. Inspired by the classic Paratrooper IBM PC game (1982), the game allows the player to control a turret that must defend the base against incoming paratroopers.

I played Paratrooper a ton back when I was a kid, and stumbling across Ebitengine brought all those memories rushing back. So I went ahead and made my own nostalgia-fueled simple version of it and pretty excited to share it with the community.

\~8:30 - 9:00pm: Closing and Head to the Pub

IAQF & Thalesians Seminar Series: Credible Decentralized Exchange Design via Verifiable Sequencing Rules A Seminar by Dr. Matheus Venturyne Xavier Ferreira

6:00 PM Seminar Begins 7:30 PM Reception

Hybrid Event: Fordham University McNally Amphitheater 140 West 62nd Street New York, NY 10023

Abstract: Trading on decentralized exchanges has been one of the primary use cases for permissionless blockchains with daily trading volume exceeding billions of U.S. dollars. In the status quo, users broadcast transactions they wish to execute in the exchange and miners are responsible for composing a block of transactions and picking an execution ordering—the order in which transactions execute in the exchange. Due to the lack of a regulatory framework, it is common to observe miners exploiting their privileged position by front-running transactions and obtaining risk-free profits. Indeed, the Flashbots service institutionalizes this exploit, with miners auctioning the right to front-run transactions. In this work, we propose to modify the interaction between miners and users and initiate the study of verifiable sequencing rules. As in the status quo, miners can determine the content of a block; however, they commit to respecting a sequencing rule that constrains the execution ordering and is verifiable (there is a polynomial time algorithm that can verify if the execution ordering satisfies such constraints). Thus in the event a miner deviates from the sequencing rule, anyone can generate a proof of non-compliance. We ask if there are sequencing rules that limit price manipulation from miners in a two-token liquidity pool exchange. Our first result is an impossibility theorem: for any sequencing rule, there is an instance of user transactions where the miner can obtain non-zero risk-free profits. In light of this impossibility result, our main result is a verifiable sequencing rule that provides execution price guarantees for users. In particular, for any user transaction A, it ensures that either (1) the execution price of A is at least as good as if A was the only transaction in the block, or (2) the execution price of A is worse than this "standalone" price and the miner does not gain when including A in the block. Our framework does not require users to use countermeasures against predatory trading strategies, for example, set limit prices or split large transactions into smaller ones. This is likely to improve user experience relative to the status quo. Joint work with David C. Parkes. To appear at STOC 2023.

Bio: Matheus Venturyne Xavier Ferreira is a Postdoctoral Fellow in Computer Science at Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and starting in Summer 2024, he will be an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Virginia. He earned his Ph.D. (2022) and MA (2018) in Computer Science from Princeton University and his BS in Computer Engineering (2016) from the Federal University of Itajubá. His research interests include AI, Algorithmic Economics and Security. He applies artificial intelligence, optimization and theoretical computer science tools to create secure, transparent, and auditable platforms. For instance, he designs auctions that prevent auctioneers from profiting from manipulations.
