We will present a new approach to the problem of quantising integrable systems of differential-difference equations. The main idea is to lift these systems to systems defined on free associative algebras and look for the ideals there that are stabilized by the dynamics of the lifted systems. In a reasonable class of candidate ideals, there […]

I will describe a new phenomenon in quantum cosmology: self-organised localisation. When the fundamental parameters of a theory are functions of a scalar field subject to large fluctuations during inflation, quantum phase transitions can act as dynamical attractors. As a result, the theory parameters are probabilistically localised around the critical value and the Universe finds […]
The Einstein Telescope (ET), a wide-band, future 3G gravitational wave detector, is to have expected detection rates of $sim 10^5 - 10^6$ BBH detections and $sim 7 times 10^4$ BNS detections in one year. The coalescence of compact binaries with total mass 20 - 100 $M_{odot}$, as typical of BH-BH or BH-NS binaries, will be […]

Abstract: The von Neumann entropy is key quantity in quantum information and in the investigation of many-body models. In this talk, we will show that tools from algebraic combinatorics and […]
Contrary to charged lepton degeneracies which are tightly constrained by the measured baryon-to-photon ratio, the allowed values of the primordial neutrino asymmetries cover a large range. In order to study the evolution of these asymmetries in the early Universe, one needs to solve a set of quantum kinetic equations that include vacuum mixing effects, mean-field […]

Classical integrable sigma-models form an important class of two-dimensional integrable field theories. It is a long standing belief that such models define renormalisable Quantum Field Theories. In this talk, I will review some recent developments related to this question. For instance, I will discuss some checks of this conjecture in several examples, including theories coupling […]
Flavourful Feebly-Interacting Particles (FIPs) in the MeV to GeV range have a strong impact on precision frontier observables ranging from rare meson decays to the lepton anomalous magnetic moments. Based on an effective field theory approach “SM+X” along with the HEPfit package to study the effect of FIPs on B to K observables. We present […]
