Special Year Learning Seminar

Intersections and the Bezout Range
David Urbanik
2:00pm|Simonyi 101

Let A be a simple abelian variety, and X and Y be two subvarieties. We say X and Y are in the Bezout range if \dim X + \dim Y >= \dim A, and outside of the Bezout range otherwise. It is known that two varieties in the Bezout range in A always...

IAS Quantum Aspects of Black Holes Group Meeting

Exploring de Sitter Space Along an Observer’s Worldline
Yiming Chen
11:00am|Bloomberg Hall Physics Library

Abstract: It was recently observed that introducing an observer makes the sphere path integral in de Sitter space positive, allowing for a state-counting interpretation. To better assess the status of this proposal, we analyze additional observables...

ECH Constraints and Twist Dynamics in the Spatial Isosceles Three-Body Problem
Pedro Salomão
9:15am|Remote Access

In this talk, I will describe the global dynamics of the spatial isosceles three-body problem, using ideas from Embedded Contact Homology. For energies below the critical level, the flow admits a disk-like global surface of section bounded by the...

IAS High Energy Theory Seminar

AdS3 Quantum Gravity via Finite-N Expansions
Wei Li
11:00am|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS) & Zoom

Abstract: I will discuss the bulk mechanism of the stringy exclusion principle in the AdS3/CFT2 case. Consider the duality between  string theory on AdS3 × S3 × M4 and Sym^N(M4). At finite N, both the chiral-chiral spectrum and the number of the...
