After discussing the basics of Carrollian physics, we shall revisit the motion  of massless particles with anyonic spin in the black hole horizons. As recently shown, such particles can move within the horizon of the black hole due to the  coupling of charges associated with a 2-parametric central extension of the 2-dimensional Carroll group to the magnetic field around the black hole -- the so called "anyonic  spin-Hall effect". We shall study several examples of such motions. Of these, the most  interesting is the motion in misaligned (asymptotically uniform) magnetic field around Kerr,  which results in a time dependent motion of Carrollian particles that is reminiscent  of "monarch migration".

Cluster structure on a quantum group allows one to work with its positive representations, a special class of modules similar in spirit to principal series representations but closed under tensor multiplication. On the other hand, cluster techniques proved inadequate for the study of finite-dimensional representation theory. I will discuss how one can reconcile positive and finite-dimensional representations into one theory by studying moduli spaces of local systems with non-generic monodromies.

Dynamical fixed points are late-time attractors of interactive QFTs that differ from thermal equilibria by a constant entropy production rate. We use holographic framework to analyze such fixed points of strongly coupled gauge theories, driven by homogeneous and isotropic expansion of the background metric - equivalently, a late-time dynamics of a corresponding QFT in Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker Universe. As an application, we discuss gravitational reheating of quark-gluon plasma in the exit from the early-cosmology inflation.
