Holo Club: Holographic transport in anisotropic systems
Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsTitle: Holographic transport in anisotropic systems Speaker: Claire Moran (Utrecht University) Venue&Time: Blue Room & Zoom / 11:30 Abstract: Understanding transport in strongly coupled quantum systems remains a central challenge across high-energy physics, condensed matter, and quantum many-body theory. Of particular interest is systems exhibiting anisotropy, where the anisotropy leads to a much richer transport […]

Seminar: ‘Are string vacua connected?’ by Ashoke Sen (ICTS-Infosys)
Blue Room Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) - C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainScientific activitiesTitle: 'Are string vacua connected?' Speaker: Ashoke Sen (ICTS-Infosys) Venue&Time: 11:00 / Blue Room Abstract: String theory has many vacua. We shall examine the question of whether these vacua are connected from an experimentalist's perspective. Ashoke Sen is the ICTS-Infosys Madhava Chair Professor at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, Bengaluru. His major honours include […]

Quantum Information Journal Club: “Symmetry-protected topology and deconfined solitons in a multi-link Z2 gauge theory”
Gray Room 3 Instituto de Física Teórica (IFT) -C. Nicolás Cabrera, 13-15, Fuencarral-El Pardo, Madrid, SpainJournal clubsSpeaker: Enrico Calogero Domanti Title: "Symmetry-protected topology and deconfined solitons in a multi-link Z2 gauge theory" Venue&Time: Gray Room 3 / 11:30 Abstract: With the advent of quantum simulators, exploring exotic collective phenomena in lattice models with local symmetries and unconventional geometries is at reach of near-term experiments. Motivated by recent progress in this direction, […]

Shannon’s Corner Journal Club: “Zeros of the partition function and their algorithmic application”
Journal clubsSpeaker: Aram Harrow (MIT) Title: "Zeros of the partition function and their algorithmic application" Venue&Time: Gray Room 1 / 11:30 Abstract: "At high temperatures quantum systems generally lose long-range order. We would expect that this makes them easier to simulate. One way to understand this is through the analytic properties of the partition function. Viewing […]

SPS Journal Club: ‘Calibration, fuzziness: new results on AdS vacuum decay’
Journal clubsStrings, Pheno and the Swampland (SPS) Journal Club Speaker: Vincent Menet (Università Milano Bicocca) Title: 'Calibration, fuzziness: new results on AdS vacuum decay' Venue&Time: Red Room / 11:30 Abstract: Motivated by swampland conjectures, we study the stability of AdS type II supergravity vacua. In the literature, vacuum decay mediated by abelian D-branes […]
