I discuss the extension of these ideas to theories where the Lorentz symmetry is spontaneously broken\, as it happens in cosmology and condensed matter physics. I explain why the use of the S-Matrix run into immediate problems. Constraints can be derived using dispersive arguments for the 2-point function of conserved currents. As a concrete application I will discuss general bounds on the electromagnetic properties of media. \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/34182/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/paolo-creminelli/ LOCATION:Auditorium Vivargent (CNRS Annecy) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241127T150000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241127T160000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20241125T075955Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241127T144510Z UID:8436-1732719600-1732723200@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Jakob Moritz - De Sitter candidates in string theory DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jakob Moritz (CERN)\n.\nAbstract: 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 energy’’\, concrete de Sitter vacua of string theory have remained elusive. In this talk I will present the first fully concrete string compactifications that yield\, at leading order in the string loop and α’α’ expansions\, de Sitter vacua of a form envisioned by Kachru\, Kallosh\, Linde and Trivedi (KKLT) more than 20 years ago. I will begin by reviewing the KKLT proposal and its complex set of delicately balanced ingredients. Then\, I will show how all the required features come together in actual examples: I will define explicit Calabi-Yau orientifolds and choices of quantized fluxes\, and derive the corresponding four-dimensional effective supergravity theories. Each example includes a strongly warped “Klebanov-Strassler throat” region containing a single anti-D3-brane\, whose supersymmetry-breaking energy\, computed at leading order in α′\, causes an uplift to a metastable de Sitter vacuum in which all moduli are stabilized. I will conclude by emphasizing a set of outstanding computational problems that need to be overcome in order to determine whether these vacua survive (presently unknown) subleading corrections\, and thus promote to full solutions of string theory.\nLink: Zoom\nAnLy: https://sites.google.com/view/anlystringsandfields\n \n \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/34412/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/jakob-moritz/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241121T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241126T143000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20241125T075955Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241126T114951Z UID:8435-1732190400-1732631400@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Analyticity\, Unitarity\, Crossing: An Introduction DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Diego Guadagnoli (LAPTh Annecy)\, Ludovico Vittorio (LAPTh\, Université Savoie Mont-Blanc and CNRS\, Annecy\, France)\nTeacher: Balasubramanian Ananthanarayan (Anant)\, Bangalore\, Indian Inst. Sci.\nLanguage: English\nSummary\nThe course is placed at the interface between particle physics and mathematical physics. It is addressed to PhD-level students\, and aims at introducing\, in a self-contained way\, fundamental concepts about scattering amplitudes and boot-straps\, as well as about effective theories. Such concepts are key to constrain and improve theories.\nContent\nThe course\, already given in 2024 at EPFL (Lausanne)\, is focused on scattering theory\, dispersion relations\, and related areas in field theory. These concepts were established in the 1950s and are crucial for understanding locality and causality in physics.\nThe course aims to systematically build up from first principles\, and covers key topics including: • pion-pion scattering\, • form-factor analysis\, • extension to pion-kaon scattering\, • principles of rescattering and (if time permits) three-body final-state effects\, • the Roy equations for pion scattering\, • the Froissart bound\, • introduction to Regge theory.\nExtensive literature beyond the course notes will be provided during the course.\nStructure\n8 lectures (16 hours in total)\n·    The detailed plan will be fixed according to the preferences of the participants — particularly those coming from outside Annecy. One possibility is to have 2+2 hours on Thu\, Fri\, Mon\, Tue\, so that participants can travel to Annecy on Thu morning\, spend the weekend in Annecy 😉 and leave on Tue afternoon.\n·    The second half of lectures may be tutorial sessions depending on the audience’s preference. In this case\, the time will be devoted to solving problems either on the blackboard or on a Mathematica-based teaching platform.\n·    Course foreseen to be in-presence only (no remote participation) to maximize teacher-students interaction.\nKeywords\nPion scattering\, Roy equations\, form factors\, dispersion relations\nPrerequisites\nBasic field theory\, particle physics\, calculus\nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/33894/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/analyticity-unitarity-crossing-an-introduction/ LOCATION:Grande Galérie (LAPTh) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241121T100000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241121T110000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20241125T075900Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241125T075900Z UID:8428-1732183200-1732186800@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Scattering Transforms in astrophysics\, application to components separation DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Erwan Allys (LPENS Paris)\nNew statistical descriptions related to the so-called Scattering Transform recently obtained attractive results for several astrophysical applications. These statistics share ideas with convolutional neural networks\, but do not require to be learned\, allowing for very efficient characterization of non-Gaussian processes from a very small amount of data. In this talk\, I will introduce these statistical descriptions\, and give an overview of the different results they allowed to obtain recently.

The physics of low-frequency modes allows to probe in a model-independent way the Hubble rate at the time of GW production\, the equation-of-state of the Universe at subsequent times and the presence of free-streaming particles at primordial epochs.I will highlight the importance of these considerations for the GW background recently measured at Pulsar Timing Arrays\, where the Standard Model has an unavoidable and distinctive effect on a primordial GW signal. \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/32452/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/utilizing-the-causal-spectrum-of-gravitational-waves-implications-for-pulsar-timing-arrays/ LOCATION:Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240410T070000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240411T160000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20240326T145427Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T145427Z UID:8326-1712732400-1712851200@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:AnLy Meeting in honor of Anamaria Font DESCRIPTION:Prof. Anamaria Font (Central University of Venezuela) is a renowned string theorist whose career has recently been recognised thanks to the L’Oréal-UNESCO International Award “For Women in Science” (see here and here). At an early stage of her career (1987-1989)\, Anamaria has also been a postdoc in LAPTh\, Annecy\, France. It is thus our pleasure to celebrate Anamaria’s award during a special two-days workshop\, on the 10-11th April 2024\, in LAPTh. We have a long tradition of scientific interactions with colleagues in Lyon\, especially on string theory related topics\, recently in the form of the AnLy activities. This workshop will then be a special AnLy Meeting\, gathering both Lyon and international colleagues and friends of Anamaria for this award celebration.Participation to this meeting is on invitation. Registration: Please read the following information and have a look at the program before registering here. Please register only if you have been invited to. Registration is open between the 11th Dec. until the 09th Feb. Accomodation: The hotel night (10-11th April) with breakfast can be booked and covered by us for Anamaria guests (not including AnLy or LAPTh members). Please indicate your interest when registering.The place is Hôtel de Bonlieu\, located here. It is located at 10 mins walking distance from the Annecy train and bus station. To reach LAPTh from there\, the closest bus stop is Palais de Justice: you can take bus line 1 (direction Parc des Glaisins) and stop at Campus. More travel information is given below. Lunches and dinner: Those are offered to all participants. Please indicate your interest when registering.Lunches will be provided at LAPTh. Dinner will take place in Brasserie de l’Impérial. Travel information: Nearby airports are those of Geneva and Lyon. Annecy can also be reached by train (SNCF). From both Geneva airport and train station (Cornavin)\, you can reach Annecy by train or by bus (272). It takes between 1:30 to 2 hours\, and booking can be done on the Swiss website. A faster option (45 mins)\, although traffic and border dependent\, is by car. A last option is Flixbus.From Lyon airport\, you would have to take a fast tram to Lyon station (La Part Dieu). From that station\, you can take a train to Annecy (between 1:30 to 2 hours). Other options from Lyon are by car (1:30 hour) or again Flixbus.Once at Annecy train and bus station\, LAPTh can easily be reached by bus (e.g. with line 1) following these instructions. It takes about 20 mins\, and tickets can be bought with cash at the bus driver.More travel information can also be found here. Travel expenses remain to be covered by participants. DISCLAIMER: We have been informed that some registered participants have been contacted via phishing emails about “their booking” (accomodation or travel). Please be careful\, this is a scam. City walk: On the 11th April afternoon\, a walk in the old city will be organised spontaneously. Organisers: David Andriot\, Anamaria Font Funding: LAPTh\, CPTGA\, Owners of the Annales H.

These tensions — or anomalies — have a significance above $3sigma$.  However\, the theoretical predictions in these decays are contaminated by difficult-to-calculate QCD contributions\, namely the non-local hadronic matrix elements. Understanding these contributions is of paramount importance to probe the SM and to clarify whether the anomalies are due to New Physics or to underestimated theoretical uncertainties. \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/32208/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/b-smumu-anomalies-new-physics-or-qcd-effects/ LOCATION:Petit Amphi (LAPTh) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240403T140000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240403T150000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20240326T145426Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T145426Z UID:8325-1712152800-1712156400@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Ben Heidenreich -- UMass Amherst DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Cristofero Fraser-Taliente (Oxford U.) \nAbstract: Link: ZoomAnLy: https://sites.google.com/view/anlystringsandfields   \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/32490/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/ben-heidenreich-umass-amherst/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240402T090000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240402T100000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20240326T145425Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T145425Z UID:8324-1712048400-1712052000@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:[Journal Club] Leonard pair DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Nicolas Crampé \nI will give the definition of the Leonard pair and itsconnection with the Askey-Wilson algebra.The use of these objects is explained in the context of different areas:integrable systems\, centralizer\, graph theory and special functions.I will explain generalizations I am interest in. \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/31460/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/journal-club-leonard-pair/ LOCATION:Petit Amphi END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240328T100000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240328T110000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20240326T145425Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T145425Z UID:8323-1711620000-1711623600@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:[Journal Club] Gravitational Waves from Early Matter Domination DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Di Liu \nBased on the following:arXiv:2311.12340\, arXiv:1904.12879\, arXiv:gr-qc/0612013 \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/31459/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/journal-club-gravitational-waves-from-early-matter-domination/ LOCATION:Petit Amphi END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240326T100000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Abidjan:20240326T110000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20240326T145424Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240326T145424Z UID:8322-1711447200-1711450800@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Locality and symmetry for T-Tbar and gravity DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Ruben Monten (Cern) \nHolography appears to be a fundamental property of gravity. However\, even in well-established models like AdS/CFT\, the compatibility of this principle with the locality properties of the gravitational physics we observe remains to be completely understood. We can make progress in less than four spacetime dimensions by using special properties of the so-called T-Tbar operator in the CFT. I will discuss how the symmetries and preserved integrability structure provide an important handle on the properties of T-Tbar deformed CFTs. On the gravitational side\, the relevant physics is that of the boundary modes of the metric\, which implement the Brown–Henneaux charges. I will show how this reproduces the T-Tbar deformed field theory result and how similar techniques can be applied to asymptotically flat space to derive\, among others\, soft theorems for scattering amplitudes. \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/32400/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/locality-and-symmetry-for-t-tbar-and-gravity/ LOCATION:Auditorium (LAPTh) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230706T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230706T100000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20230509T132145Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230509T132145Z UID:8226-1688634000-1688637600@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Julien Gaboriaud DESCRIPTION:  \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/29995/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/julien-gaboriaud/ LOCATION:Auditorium (LAPTh) CATEGORIES:Upcoming Journal Club,Upcoming Lectures,Upcoming Seminars,Upcoming Workshops,Weekly seminars END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230629T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230629T100000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20230509T132144Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230509T132144Z UID:8225-1688029200-1688032800@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Julien Barrat DESCRIPTION:  \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/28967/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/julien-barrat/ LOCATION:Auditorium (LAPTh) CATEGORIES:Upcoming Journal Club,Upcoming Lectures,Upcoming Seminars,Upcoming Workshops,Weekly seminars END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230627T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230627T100000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20230509T132143Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230509T132143Z UID:8224-1687856400-1687860000@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:[Journal Club] George Tringas DESCRIPTION:Speakers: George Tringas \n Abstract:  \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/29783/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/journal-club-george-tringas/ LOCATION:Petit Amphi (LAPTh) CATEGORIES:Upcoming Journal Club,Upcoming Lectures,Upcoming Seminars,Upcoming Workshops,Weekly seminars END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230622T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230622T100000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20230509T132142Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230509T132142Z UID:8223-1687424400-1687428000@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Timm Wrase DESCRIPTION:  \nhttps://indico.in2p3.fr/event/29705/ URL:https://www.lapth.cnrs.fr/en/event/timm-wrase/ LOCATION:Petit Amphi (LAPTh) CATEGORIES:Upcoming Journal Club,Upcoming Lectures,Upcoming Seminars,Upcoming Workshops,Weekly seminars END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230612T130000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230630T160000 DTSTAMP:20260410T043443 CREATED:20230509T132141Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230509T132141Z UID:8222-1686574800-1688140800@www.lapth.cnrs.fr SUMMARY:Physics at TeV Colliders and Beyond the Standard Model | PhysTeV 2023 DESCRIPTION:The “PhysTeV” series of workshops aims at pushing the frontier of fundamental Physics by bringing together theorists and experimentalists working on several aspects of phenomenology at TeV colliders and other experiments.World experts are brought together to address fundamental problems raised notably by the Higgs boson discovery\, dark matter and the disappearance of antimatter in the Universe\, and to develop new techniques and original strategies to discover signals of new Physics at TeV-scale particle colliders and other experiments\, as\, for instance\, precision low-energy experiments.The main theme of the 2023 edition will be                         “Intensify the search for new Physics”.Further details available also here: https://phystev.cnrs.fr/Registration will close on 26 March 2023. Registration deadline: extended until 2 April 2023.   \n Session 1: 12 – 21 June 2023 \n Higgs Physics (SM aspects) \n Theory \n Experiment \n S.
