The future interior of black holes in AdS/CFT can be described
in terms of a quantum circuit. We investigate boundary quantities
detecting properties of this quantum circuit. We discuss relations
between operator size, quantum complexity, and the...
Many space and astrophysical plasmas, such as the solar wind,
radiatively inefficient accretion flows onto black holes, and the
intracluster medium of galaxy clusters (ICM), are hot and dilute,
which makes them weakly collisional or even...
This is a continuation of a series of talks I have given in
recent years reporting on work with Jan Manschot, et. al.
There will be some repetition, and some updates and new
results. (See below for some relevant links.)

The clustered nature of star formation leaves a long-term
imprint on galaxies, stars, and planets. At young ages, stellar
clustering subdivides galaxies into individual building blocks
undergoing vigorous, feedback-driven life cycles that vary
with...
I will discuss ongoing work about a string theoretic
perspective on the 2d Bethe/Gauge correspondence of
Nekrasov-Shatashvili. In this work, we focus on gl(M|N) spin
chains. We show that the two sides of the correspondence, the
integrable spin chain...
We present spherically symmetric solutions to Einstein’s
equations, which are equivalent to canonical Schwarzschild and
Reissner-Nordstrom black holes on the exterior, but with singular
(Planck-density) shells at their respective event and inner...
Star formation takes place in the densest and coldest parts of
the interstellar medium (ISM), in dark molecular clouds. These are
swept up by multiple supernova explosions on scales of several
hundred parsec. While condensing out of the warm ISM...
I will revisit the
quantum field theory of the Coulomb gas formalism, clarifying
several important points along the way. The first key ingredient
involves a peculiarity of the timelike linear dilaton: although the
background charge Q breaks the...
