We introduce a theoretical framework to study experimental
physics using quantum complexity theory. This allows us to address:
what is the computational complexity of an experiment? For several
'model' experiments, we prove that there is an...
We take the tensor network describing explicit p-adic CFT
partition functions proposed in 1902.01411, and consider boundary
conditions of the network describing a deformed Bruhat-Tits (BT)
tree geometry. We demonstrate that this geometry satisfies...
I shall present joint work with Maxim Kontsevich
(arXiv:2105.10161) describing an interesting domain of complex
metrics on a smooth manifold. It is a complexification of the space
of ordinary Riemannian metrics, and has the Lorentzian metrics
(but...
What governs whether large-scale planetary habitability is
sustained through time? Lakes, valley networks, groundwaters,
hydrothermal systems, and chemically open-system weathering once
existed on Mars. The suite of aqueous environments preserved
in...
Abstract 1: In recent years, weak lensing of the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) has emerged as a powerful tool to probe
fundamental physics. The prime target of CMB lensing surveys is the
lensing potential, which is reconstructed from observed...
I will present the cosmological weak lensing results from the
Dark Energy Survey (DES) using its first three years of data, taken
on the 4m Blanco telescope at CTIO. This analysis spans the full
DES footprint, more than 4000 sq. deg. of sky, with...
