Learning in the quantum universe
I will present recent progress in building a rigorous theory to understand how scientists, machines, and future quantum computers could learn models of our quantum universe. The talk will begin...

Locality bounds on quantum dynamics with measurements
In non-relativistic systems, the Lieb-Robinson Theorem imposes an emergent speed limit (independent of the relativistic limit set by c), establishing locality under unitary quantum dynamics and constraining the time needed...

Entanglement entropy in (1+1)-d with defects
In this talk I will explore perspectives of quantum entanglement in (1+1)-d systems in presence of defects. The talk consists of two parts. In the first part, I will talk...

Unlocking the Universe with quantum materials
Just seven years after their first detection, gravitational waves (GWs) have revealed the first glimpses of a previously hidden dark Universe. Using the GW signature of distant compact-object collisions, we...

A Universal Operator Growth Hypothesis
Thanks to the Lanczos algorithm, the Hamiltonian dynamics of any operator can be written as a hopping problem on a semi-infinite one-dimensional chain. Our hypothesis states that the hopping strength...

Symmetry indicators for topological materials
Many free-fermion topological phases can be diagnosed by analyzing a suitable collection of symmetry data. While the Fu-Kane parity criterion for topological insulators is an early example, the systematic generalization...

Hydrodynamics and (Pre)Thermalization in Floquet Systems
A tremendous amount of recent attention has focused on characterizing the dynamical properties of periodically driven many-body systems. Here, we use a novel numerical tool termed ‘density matrix truncation’ (DMT)...

Numerical approach to infrared conformality and associated dualities in 2+1 dimensions
QFTs in 2+1 dimensions are powerful systems to understand the emergence of mass-gap and particle spectrum in QCD-like theories that describe our 3+1 dimensional world. Recently, these 2+1 dimensional systems...

Solving physics many-body problems with deep learning
Solving classical and quantum physics many-body systems are amongst the hardest problems in the natural sciences, but also of fundamental importance for applications such as material and drug design. In...

Dirty Quantum Criticality
Many of the most mysterious phenomena in condensed matter physics involve systems near quantum phase transitions where the interplay of quenched disorder and strong interactions likely plays an essential role...
