The cuprate pseudogap phase displays Fermi arc spectral weight in
photoemission, while recent magnetotransport observations present
compelling evidence for hole pockets. We model this by a

Fractionalized Fermi liquid (FL*), which was predicted to have...

In the NISQ era, where noise limits device coherence times, we are fundamentally constrained to shallow quantum computation. This talk will explore the power, limitations, and learnability of the QAC0

circuit class--i.e. the family of constant-depth...

I'll talk about some classical problems around orthogonal polynomials and harmonic analysis that fall into the "unlikely intersection" paradigm: they can be reformulated as questions about counting integers in definable sets whose algebraic parts...

Given a local system on a complex algebraic variety, what are the subvarieties on which the monodromy drops? The talk will discuss these monodromy special loci, a natural generalisation of (the positive period dimension components of) the Hodge loci...

I will explore one of the most profound open question in particle physics, focusing on some exciting directions of my ongoing research activity: the strong CP problem. I will begin with an overview of the strong CP problem, highlighting proposed...

To show that the Gamma function, restricted to the positive real half-axis, generates an o-minimal structure over the real field, we had to show (in collaboration with Lou van den Dries) that the expansion of the real field by all functions that are...

The evolution of planets and planetary systems depends on the environments created by their host stars in a number of ways.  In this talk, I will discuss several observable impacts of stellar winds, radiation pressure, and non-thermal ionizing...
