Daniele Oriti – Late-time cosmic acceleration from Quantum Gravity

Speakers: Daniele Oriti (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) . Abstract: We show how a cosmological dynamics with a late-time cosmic acceleration and an asymptotic deSitter regime can be obtained from hydrodynamics on minisuperspace, a framework generalising quantum cosmology with non-linear terms. We also show how this hydrodynamics framework can be derived from fundamental quantum gravity models within […]

Introduction to generalised symmetries

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh)

Speakers: Clément Delcamp (IHES) Defining internal symmetry in a quantum theory through the lens of topological defects has opened the door to generalised notions of symmetry. In this seminar, I will introduce such generalisations and sketch the relevant mathematical framework, before presenting explicit examples in quantum lattice models. https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/35727/

The Fun Side of Galaxy 4-Point Functions

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh)

Speakers: Jiamin HOU (Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE)) Galaxy N-point function statistics provide a powerful tool for extracting non-Gaussian information. To efficiently compute N-point functions, various approaches have been proposed, including radial-angular decomposition in harmonic space and compressed statistics. In particular, the statistics involving four fields can be designed to be an effective […]

WIMPs and New Physics Interpretations of the PTA Signal are Incompatible

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh)

Speakers: Yann Gouttenoire (Tel Aviv University) Abstract: In order to explain the large amplitude of the nano-Hertz stochastic gravitational wave background observed in pulsar timing arrays (PTA), primordial sources must be particularly energetic. This is correlated to the generation of large density fluctuations, later collapsing into ultra-compact mini-halo (UCMHs). We demonstrate that if dark matter […]

Loops in the EFT/PT of Structure Formation

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh)

Speakers: Zvonomir Vlah (Ruđer Bošković Institute and University of Cambridge) I will discuss recent developments in cosmological perturbation theory and the effective field theory (EFT) of large-scale structure. Current galaxy […]

AnLy 6th in-person Meeting

Dirac/3-Croix Rousse (IP2I)

This is the 6th 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 […]

LIM25 – Annecy

Laboratoire d'Annecy de Physique Théorique (LAPTh)

Line intensity mapping (LIM) is an emerging observational technique with the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of both cosmology and astrophysics. By probing the large-scale structure of the universe […]
