Beilinson-Bernstein localization via the wonderful compactification
We explain how a doubled version of the Beilinson-Bernstein localization functor can be understood using the geometry of the wonderful compactification of a group. Specifically, bimodules for the Lie algebra...

Torus spectra and entanglement entropy in (2+1)-dimensional conformal field theories
Finite-size spectra and entanglement both characterize nonlocal physics of quantum systems, and are universal properties of a CFT. I discuss the energy spectrum of the Wilson-Fisher CFT on the torus...

Simulating structure formation in different environments and the application
The observables of the large-scale structure such as galaxy number density generally depends on the density environment (of a few hundred Mpc). The dependence can traditionally be studied by performing...

The SYK model and matter without quasiparticle
Many strongly-correlated systems like high Tc cuprates and heavy fermions have interesting features going beyond quasi-particle description. While Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev(SYK) models are exactly solvable models that can provide a platform to...

Crystalline symmetries and topological band theory: from defects to classifying combinatorics - Robert-Jan Slager
Topological phases of matter entail a prominent research theme, featuring distinct characteristics that include protected metallic edge states and the possibility of fractionalized excitations. With the advent of symmetry protected...
