Abstract: We study the operator algebra of extended conformal defects in more than two spacetime dimensions. Such algebra structure encodes the combined effect of multiple impurities on physical observables at long distances as well as the...

A graph $G$ is said to be Ramsey for a tuple of graphs ($H_1,...,H_r$) if every $r$-coloring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H_i$ in color $i$, for some $i$. A fundamental question at the intersection of Ramsey theory and the...

Intracluster light is thought to originate from stars that were ripped away from their parent galaxies by gravitational tides and galaxy interactions during the build up of the cluster. The stars from such interactions will accumulate over time, so...

Abstract: Geometry and representation theory are intertwined in deep and foundational ways. One of the most important instances of this relationship was uncovered in the 1970s by Deligne and Lusztig: the representation theory of matrix groups over...
