High Energy Theory: Bootstrapping Correlators from dS to LSS

Hayden Lee (Chicago)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

The physics of the early universe is reflected in the analytic structure of cosmological correlators. Recent years have seen substantial progress in their study, fueled by a novel theoretical approach. In this new…

High Energy Theory Seminar: Resolution Invariance of Intersection Pairings on Calabi-Yau Manifolds

Patrick Jefferson (Johns Hopkins University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3C6

Studies of string theory compactifications suggest that certain “vertical” homological intersection pairings of Calabi-Yau manifolds are invariant under a large set of birational transformations. In this talk, I will…



Rittenhouse Lecture: An imperfect view of the Universe

Alan Heavens (Imperial College London)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, A4

Our most expensive telescopes make exquisite images of the distant Universe, but however good the telescope, the images are flawed.  The light has been on a long journey, navigating through the rich array…
