calendar dates

Physics Calendar

The Physics calendar contains High Energy Theory events hosted by the Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University. A condensed version of the calendar is sent to the general Physics mailing list on Friday afternoons. Reminder emails are sent the morning of the event. If you are a local faculty member, postdoc or graduate student and would like to be added to the general Physics mailing list, please contact Lisa Fleischer, lisa@ias.edu

Princeton University Donald R. Hamilton Colloquium Series

Free Probability Approaches to Quantum Dynamics
Silva Pappalardi
4:00pm|Jadwin Hall A-10

Abstract: Understanding how to characterize quantum chaotic dynamics is a longstanding question.

In this colloquium, I will discuss recent developments that identify Free Probability --  a generalization of probability theory to non-commuting objects...

IAS Quantum Aspects of Black Holes Group Meeting

The Cosmological CPT Theorem
Ayngaran Thavanesan
11:00am|Bloomberg Hall Physics Library

Abstract: In the original CPT theorem one is restricted to flat space and is unable to make converse statements. In this talk I will show how we can reformulate the CPT theorem using a symmetry argument and generalise it to beyond flat space. This...

PU High Energy Theory Seminar

Higgs-Confinement Transitions in QCD from Symmetry Protected Topological Phases
Thomas Dumitrescu
11:00am|Jadwin Hall, PCTS Room 407 & Zoom

Abstract: In gauge theories with fundamental matter, such as QCD, there is typically no sharp way to distinguish confining and Higgs regimes because there are no suitable order parameters.  It is standard lore that these two regimes are continuously...

Princeton University Gravity Initiative Seminar Series

(In)stability of Quasinormal Frequencies of Black Holes
Claude Warnick
12:30pm|Princeton University, Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor

Abstract: A perturbed black hole rings down by producing radiation at certain fixed (complex) frequencies - the quasinormal frequencies. These frequencies can be identified with the spectrum of a non-self adjoint operator derived from the evolution...

PU High Energy Theory Seminar

Aspects of T Tbar Deformation and the Kernel Formula
Aki Hashimoto
2:30pm|Jadwin Hall, PCTS Room 407

Abstract: In this talk, I will review a simple derivation of an integral kernel formula for the partition function of T Tbar deformed CFT based on the holographic single trace T Tbar deformation and its generalization to J Tbar and J Jbar...
