IAS Special High Energy Theory Seminar

Observers and Observations in de Sitter Space
Leonard Susskind
1:30pm|Zoom

Abstract: The key word in the title is “IN”. Unlike AdS where observers can be thought of as living on the boundary of space, or even in a laboratory beyond the boundary, in dS the observer is part of the system; he or she lives “in” the de Sitter...

Soft Theorem in Gravity from Soft-Collinear Effective Field Theory
Robert Szafron
1:45pm|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

Abstract: The amplitudes for soft gauge boson emission are related to the non-radiative amplitudes via soft theorem. The soft limit of gauge theories and perturbative gravity are surprisingly similar despite the different gauge structures. However...

Remarks on T Tbar Deformed CFT on Rindler Space and the Black Hole S-matrix
1:45pm|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

Abstract: In this talk I describe work in progress on a proposed definition of T Tbar deformed holographic CFT on Rindler space. The construction employs the reformulation of T Tbar deformed in terms of flat JT gravity, and combines elements of the...
