Jakob Moritz – De Sitter candidates in string theory

Speakers: Jakob Moritz (CERN) . Abstract: The simplest cosmology compatible with the accelerated expansion of our universe is de Sitter space. Yet, more than 25 years after the discovery of ``dark […]

Positivity Constraints for condensed matter and cosmology

Auditorium Vivargent (CNRS Annecy)

Speakers: Paolo Creminelli (ICTP, Trieste) The coefficients of the operators of an effective field theory (EFT) are constrained to satisfy certain inequalities, under the (mild) assumption that the UV completion satisfies general requirements of causality and unitarity. I discuss the extension of these ideas to theories where the Lorentz symmetry is spontaneously broken, as it […]

AnLy 5th in-person Meeting

ENS Lyon

This is the 5th instance of the in-person AnLy meetings between neighboring institutions (IP2I Lyon, LAPTh Annecy, LPENSL Lyon) on string and field theory topics. It will take place at ENS Lyon, room MGN1-103 (1st floor, research side), on the 03rd December 2024.   Travel: Options between Lyon and Annecy are train (or train + bus), […]

Entanglement and quantum phase transitions : An introduction

Salle de Sommets

Speakers: Gilles Parez As you may know, my research interests lie at the intersection of integrable systems and quantum information. This JC will be the occasion for me to give a *literal* introduction to the latter.  Many papers (and grant proposal) about quantum information and quantum entanglement in many-body systems contain a version of the […]

Entanglement and quantum phase transitions : An introduction

Salle des Sommets (LAPTh)

Speakers: Gilles Parez (Lapth) Many papers (and grant proposal) about quantum information and quantum entanglement in many-body systems contain a version of the following sentence in their introduction: "It is very efficient to use quantities originally defined in the context of quantum information, such as entanglement measures, to detect and characterize quantum phase transitions in […]

Philippe Brax – Axio-dilaton screened cosmology

Speakers: Philippe Brax (CEA) . Abstract: I will review the problems caused by light scalar fields in particular with respect to gravitational tests and consider a new type of screening mechanism […]

Le Futur Collisionneur Circulaire: Pourquoi ? Quand ? Comment ?

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPP / LAPTh)

Speakers: Christophe Grojean (DESY (Hamburg) and Humboldt University (Berlin)) Le futur collisionneur circulaire se profile comme le prochain grand défi scientifique à relever. Son programme ambitieux devrait occuper la physique […]
