Locality and symmetry for T-Tbar and gravity

Auditorium (LAPTh)

Speakers: Ruben Monten (Cern)Holography 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 […]

[Journal Club] Leonard pair

Petit Amphi

Speakers: Nicolas CrampéI 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.https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/31460/

$b->smu^+mu^-$ anomalies: New Physics or QCD effects?

Petit Amphi (LAPTh)

Speakers: Nico Gubernari (Cambridge U., DAMTP)Rare $B$ meson decays are powerful probes for testing the Standard Model (SM). Recent measurements of several observables in $bto s mumu$ transitions have revealed tensions with the corresponding SM predictions. These tensions — or anomalies — have a significance above $3sigma$.  However, the theoretical predictions in these decays are […]

AnLy Meeting in honor of Anamaria Font

Auditorium (LAPTh)

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 […]

Utilizing the causal spectrum of gravitational waves: implications for Pulsar Timing Arrays

Auditorium Vivargent (LAPTh)

Speakers: Davide Racco (Ethz)The low-frequency part of a primordial gravitational wave spectrum generated by local physics in a wide class of phenomena (such as a phase transition), is largely fixed by causality, offering a clean window into the early Universe. The physics of low-frequency modes allows to probe in a model-independent way the Hubble rate […]

Scattering Transforms in astrophysics, application to components separation

Salle des Sommets (LAPTh)

Speakers: Erwan Allys (LPENS Paris) New 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, […]

Analyticity, Unitarity, Crossing: An Introduction

Grande Galérie (LAPTh)

Speakers: Diego Guadagnoli (LAPTh Annecy), Ludovico Vittorio (LAPTh, Université Savoie Mont-Blanc and CNRS, Annecy, France) Teacher: Balasubramanian Ananthanarayan (Anant), Bangalore, Indian Inst. Sci. Language: English Summary The 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 […]
