Princeton University Special Physics Seminar

September 16, 2024 | 11:00am - 12:00pm

Abstract: Tensor network states are new kinds of variational wavefunctions that help us to understand quantum phases and phase transitions beyond Landau paradigm. In this talk, I will first review the major development of tensor network simulation...

IAS High Energy Theory Seminar

September 13, 2024 | 11:00am - 12:15pm

Abstract: I will introduce a new 2d gravity/matrix integral duality. The bulk theory is a two-dimensional string theory defined by coupling two copies of Liouville CFT with central charges c = 13 ± is on the worldsheet. We call this string theory...

IAS Amplitudes Group Meeting

September 10, 2024 | 2:30pm - 4:00pm

Description: During the IAS Amplitudes Group Meetings, we discuss recent results about scattering amplitudes and have pedagogical overview lectures on well-established topics in scattering theory. In this introductory meeting, we will decide on the...
