SUMMARY:10th IBS/IFT workshop: Dark World to the Swampland
DESCRIPTION:The IBS-IFT Workshop is a regular event organized jointly by IFT and IBS-CTPU\, this year reaching its tenth anniversary. \nThe aim of the workshop is share ideas\, foster collaborations\, and to discuss recent developments in theoretical physics. \nThe event is organized over two weeks. The first week\, November 4-7\, will focus on String Phenomenology  \nThe Center for Theoretical Physics of the Universe is one of the 30 centers of the Institute of Basic Science in South Korea. The IBS-CTPU carries out research on particle physics and cosmology\, which aims to understand nature at the most fundamental level and answer the big questions about the origin of the universe. \nThe Institute for Theoretical Physics IFT UAM-CSIC is a joint research center belonging to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM). It is the only Spanish center dedicated entirely to research in Theoretical Physics. The IFT members develop research in the frontiers of Elementary Particle Physics\, Astroparticles\, and Cosmology\, in order to understand the fundamental keys of Nature and the Universe. \nWith this workshop we want to try to advance our understanding of quantum gravity\, mainly through the swampland program\, by refining several of the conjectures that have been put forth in the program to bridge the gap between effective field theories and the UV completion as quantum gravity.

SUMMARY:Machine Learning for Time-Domain Astrophysics
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alex Gagliano (IAIFI/MIT) \nVenue&Time: Blue Room / 3:00 PM \nAbstract: The time-evolving night sky is rich with variable stars\, supernovae\, and merging neutron stars. Wide-field imaging surveys that monitor this variability produce gappy\, multi-modal observations that demand scalable\, uncertainty-aware models for physical inference. In this talk\, I’ll survey my recent work in building machine learning methods for time-domain astrophysics\, with a focus on learning representations of our data for classification\, physical inference and the discovery of astrophysical anomalies. I’ll introduce Minuet\, a compact host-galaxy image encoder trained with diffusion modeling; and a mixture-of-experts model that fuses supernova light curves and spectra while preserving modality-specific information and yielding calibrated posteriors. I’ll conclude by outlining three areas at this intersection with the greatest potential to drive discovery in the coming years: better physical models\, scalable population studies\, and ML-guided survey optimization. \nThis seminar is related to the I+D+i project whose reference is CEX2020-001007-S\, funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033. The topic is framed within the following research line: Origin and composition of the universe: Astroparticles and Cosmology (Astro/Cosmo).
