Lena Funcke earns Max Planck Society award
Earning a PhD is a remarkable achievement that reflects years of dedication and effort — and it’s not one that many 23-year-olds have already crossed off their “to do” lists...
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...

Localizing Information in Quantum Gravity and State-dressed Local Operators in AdS/CFT
It is well known that quantum information can be strictly localized in quantum field theory. Similarly, one can also localize information in classical gravity up to quantities like the ADM...

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...

Live from Geneva: Davide Gaiotto and Stephen Hawking honoured by the Fundamental Physics Prize Foundation
Gaiotto is one of three laureates of the New Horizons in Physics Prize, each valued at $100,000, recognizing work with high potential to lead to future breakthroughs. According to the...
An Enlightening Evening of Dark Matter
Take a guided tour of the invisible universe on Dark Matter Night. In a hybrid event (in-person and live webcast) on October 26, dark matter researchers Katie Mack and Ken...

Evaporating Black-to-White Hole
What is the ultimate fate of black holes? Since the discovery of Hawking evaporation process, the issue has been much discussed. Loop quantum gravity suggests that black hole could ultimately...

Quantum complexity, irreversibility, learnability and fluctuations.
Quantum complexity is a notion characterizing the universality of the entanglement arising from a quantum evolution. A universal evolution will result in a complex entanglement. At the same time, this...

The holographic dual of Renyi relative entropy
The relative entropy is a measure of the distinguishability of two quantum states. A great deal of progress has been made in the study of the relative entropy between an...

Direct Deflection of Particle Dark Matter
Detecting light dark matter that interacts weakly with electromagnetism has recently become one of the benchmark goals of near-term and futuristic direct detection experiments. In this talk, I will discuss...
