SUMMARY:SPS Journal Club: 'Regge trajectories for UV completions of graviton scattering from polynomial boundedness'
DESCRIPTION:Strings\, Pheno and the Swampland (SPS) Journal Club. Every Thursday at 12:00 in the Red Room. \nBruno Bento (IFT) will present: ‘Regge trajectories for UV completions of graviton scattering from polynomial boundedness’\n\nVenue & Time: Red Room / 12:00\n\nAbstract: We study graviton scattering amplitudes. Assuming they are UV completed by a theory of weakly coupled massive higher spins\, we demonstrate that the UV completion must possess infinitely many Regge trajectories\, and thus they are forced to have a stringy spectrum. We extend and simplify a previous proof by some of us for open-string like states to the case of external gravitons. In the present new proof\, we trace the need for infinitely many trajectories to the constraint of polynomial boundedness\, ultimately tied to causality. We further present numerical results based on the stringy ansatz of Häring-Zhiboedov\, which illustrates how single-trajectory-like solutions actually emerge as extremal solutions of numerical bootstrap. In our numerics\, these trajectories curiously show up as numerically very large \textit{sister} trajectories. We provide solid evidence that the solutions are spurious as they appear to admit a divergent limit for infinite ansatz size.

SUMMARY:Seminar: 'Quantum computing for lattice gauge theories: from the Schwinger model to an SO(3) Quantum Link model'
DESCRIPTION:Title: Quantum computing for lattice gauge theories: from the Schwinger model to an SO(3) Quantum Link model \nSpeaker: Bipasha Chakraborty (University of Southampton) \nVenue&Time: Red Room / 15:00 \nAbstract: Quantum computing provides a promising framework for simulating strongly coupled gauge theories relevant to high-energy physics. In this talk\, I will discuss quantum simulations of lattice gauge theories\, focusing on the Schwinger model as a benchmark Abelian system and on a non-Abelian SO(3) gauge theory formulated as a quantum link model. I will outline gauge-invariant encodings and circuit implementations suitable for near-term devices\, and comment on prospects for using quantum algorithms to study real-time dynamics and other regimes challenging for classical methods.
