I will review some interesting features regarding the spectrum of near-extremal black holes in gravity and near-BPS black holes in supergravity, which are derived from the Euclidean path integral. For simplicity, I will focus on the case of charged...

In the Solar system, the planets follow orbits that are nearly aligned with the Sun's equatorial plane. What about planets around other stars? Many techniques are available to measure the obliquities of planet-hosting stars, ranging from an effect...

In the recent breakthrough on the uniform Mordell-Lang problem by Dimitrov-Gao-Habegger and Kuhne, their key result is a uniform Bogomolov type of theorem for curves over number fields. In this talk, we introduce a refinement and generalization of...

Compact mass-spring models can measure remarkably small deformations while conserving angular momentum. We use them within an N-body code to simulate tidal evolution of viscoelastic spinning objects, tying simulated rheology to spin dynamics...

I will present a recent numerical study on the generation and the amplification of magnetic fields in the Universe. Through cosmological simulations of galaxy formation, we have studied the Biermann battery process that drives microscopic current...
