Abstract: In this talk I will present
recent work on the rigorous justification of the geometric optics
approximation for the Einstein vacuum equations, and its link with
the Burnett conjecture in general relativity. I will start by
presenting the...
The Institute for Advanced Study requires that all adult
visitors, collaborators, conference and on-campus seminar attendees
and outside vendors coming to the Institute are required to have
completed a COVID-19 vaccination and booster in order to...
Abstract: Intestinal organoids capture
essential features of the intestinal epithelium such as crypt
folding, spatial compartmentalization of different cell types, and
cellular movements from crypt to villus. Each of these processes
and their...

Abstract: The mass of the W boson, a
mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is
tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of
particle physics. The Higgs boson was the last missing
component of the model. After...

Abstract: Most cosmological data analysis
today relies on the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW)
metric, which provides the basis of the current standard
cosmological model. Within this framework, interesting tensions
between our...
Abstract: At the center of our Milky Way
Galaxy lives a compact massive object called Sagittarius A* (Sgr
A*) which is believed to be a black hole. Its mass, as inferred
from the orbits of gravitationally bond stars as well as from
direct images...
