Abstract: General relativistic ray tracing
and radiative transfer (GRRT) are numerical techniques for
simulating images of black holes. They have played an
instrumental role in both predicting and interpreting the horizon
scale resolution images...
Abstract: Progress in recent years on the
S-matrix bootstrap and bottom-up constructions of candidate string
theory amplitudes, have brought about a revival of interest in the
so-called Coon amplitude: a q-deformed generalization of the
Veneziano...
Abstract: Over the last four decades, the axion
has gone from being an elegant but undetectable dark matter
candidate to becoming one of the primary targets of dedicated
searches around the globe. Many of these searches have been
catalysts for the...
Abstract: I will address the question of:
what are the mathematical/functional forms of predictions made
using perturbative QFT? Beyond one loop, very little about this
question has been known until quite recently, in part due to the
appearance of...
Abstract: As the search space for light dark
matter (DM) has shifted to sub-GeV DM candidate partcles,
increasing attention has turned to solid state detectors built from
“quantum materials”. While traditonal solid state detector targets
(e.g. Si or...
Abstract: Recent developments in massive
on-shell scattering amplitudes in 4D have opened the door to
understanding particle physics efficiently from an on-shell
point-of-view, including on-shell notions of minimal coupling and
black holes as...
Abstract: A review of the concept of
Krylov Complexity(K- Complexity) will be presented. One feature of
K-Complexity is that its definition does not involve a tolerance
parameter.
I will describe some general properties of K-Complexity, its
behavior...
Abstract: This is an exciting time for stellar
astrophysics as high-cadence time domain surveys (Gaia, PTF, ZTF,
ATLAS, Kepler, TESS, and, in the near future, the Vera Rubin
Observatory) are revolutionizing the landscape of stellar studies
by...
Abstract: I will talk about the invariants of
topologically ordered states of quantum lattice systems that
generalize Berry classes and can be defined for any gapped state in
any dimension. The equivariant version of such invariants unifies
and...
