Fusion rules from entanglement
Connections between 2D gapped quantum phases and the anyon fusion theory have been proven in various ways under different settings. In this work, we introduce a new framework connecting them...

Binary black hole simulations: from supercomputers to your laptop
Simulations that numerically solve Einstein's equations are the only means to accurately predict the outcome of the merger of two black holes. The most important outputs from these simulations are...

Bridgeland stability conditions relative to a boundary
In this talk I will present a construction of relative Bridgeland stability conditions that appeared in my work on stability of topological Fukaya categories of surfaces. This construction gives a...

Minimum length scenarios that maintain continuous symmetries
It has long been argued that combining the uncertainty principle with gravity will lead to an effective minimum length at the Planck scale. A particular challenge is to model the...

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...

Google Cloud Platform
Cloud computing allows users to rent computers from vendors including Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, paying for only the resources they use. In this tutorial, I will give an intro to...

Electroweak Quintessence Axion Revisited in Light of Swampland Conjectures
It is a curious numerology that the dynamical scale associated with the instanton of the electroweak SU(2) gauge group is approximately the energy scale of dark energy. We revisit this...

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...

A multivariable approach to renormalisation: Meromorphic germs with linear poles and the geometry of cones
Analytic renormalisation "à la Speer" using a multivariable approach typically leads to meromorphic germs in several variables whose poles are linear. In particular, Feynman integrals, multizeta functions and their generalisations...

Planckian discreteness and dark energy phenomenology
I will explain how dark energy in cosmology could arise from the noisy diffusion of energy from the low energy degrees of freedom of matter (described in terms of QFT)...
