TITLE: The Uses of Non-Invertible Symmetries and “Dualities" ABSTRACT: Non-invertible symmetries are all the rage these days. I will explain a variety of their applications. One use is to extend Kramers-Wannier duality to a large class of models, explaining exact degeneracies between non-(conventional) symmetry-related ground states as well as in the low-energy spectrum. Other applications […]

Programming quantum materials with terahertz light Quantum materials often harbor emergent orders and phases that reveal themselves at low-energy scales, around 1 to 10 meV. To investigate these collective behaviors, we turn to the terahertz energy regime—a crucial window for probing and controlling quantum phenomena. In this talk, I will present our latest breakthroughs in […]

TITLE: Absolutely Mindboggling! ABSTRACT: The fractional quantum Hall states are among the most beautiful, the most consequential, and the best understood strongly correlated states discovered in nature. I will begin with a brief introduction to their rich phenomenology and explanation as a manifestation of the formation of a new kind of emergent particle called the […]

TITLE: A first search for massive non-resonant leptoquarks coupling to first and second generation fermions using the CMS detector ABSTRACT: I present an overview of the first search for nonresonant leptoquarks (LQs) that couple up and down quarks to electrons and muons using the CMS detector. The nonresonant exchange of LQs presents the opportunity to […]

TITLE: Quasi-normal modes of rotating black holes beyond General Relativity ABSTRACT: In this talk, I will summarize the recent advancements of quasi-normal modes in alternative theories of gravity. I will explain the main issues in computing the characteristic frequencies of rotating black holes and what are the most prominent strategies to tackle this problem. The […]
