Abstract: One of the unique features of
quantum gravity is the lack of local observables and completeness
of boundary observables (e.g. S-matrix in flat space or CFT
correlators in AdS). I will show that the existence of such
boundary observables is...

Abstract: The bootstrap program leverages
symmetry and positivity to carve out the space of
consistent quantum theories. In this talk I will highlight some of
its recent successes, ranging from the numerical solution of
statistical models at...
Abstract: I will discuss a direct
rigorous mathematical proof of the Gregory--Laflamme
instability for the 5D Schwarzschild
black string. This is a mode instability at the level of
the linearised vacuum Einstein equation. Under a choice of
ansatz...
All in-person attendees must be fully vaccinated,
including a booster dose. Individuals must be
prepared to present proof of vaccination and booster if asked but
will not be required to submit proof. Masks are
optional in all indoor spaces.
