High Energy Physics

In this talk we will present results on all one-loop scattering amplitudes in N=6 Chern-Simons matter theories. Especially we will discuss connection between certain triple-cut diagrams and tree-level recursive diagrams, and a general formula capturing the multi-particle factorization of arbitrary one-loop amplitudes in the theories is obtained from this connection. Furthermore a recursion relation for the supercoefficients of one-loop amplitudes will be derived, which leads the solution for all one-loop amplitudes.

High Energy Physics

In this talk, I'll give a brief summary of how one-loop bulk eﬀects renormalize both bulk and brane eﬀective interactions for geometries sourced by codimension-two branes. I'll then discuss what these results imply for a six-dimensional supergravity model which aims to capture the features that make extra-dimensional physics attractive for understanding naturalness issues in particle physics. I'll also emphasize the role that brane back-reaction plays in yielding unexpected results, and present a one-loop contribution to the 4D vacuum energy whose size is set by the KK scale.

General Relativity & Quantum Cosmology

I will review some problems of the black hole paradigm and explore other
possibilities for the final state of stellar collapse other than an evaporating
black hole. In particular I will use the so-called transplanckian problem as a
guide in this search for a compelling scenario for the evaporation of
ultracompact objects.
Adventures with Monte Carlo Simulations of the Self-Avoiding Walk

The Rosenbluth Method is a classical kinetic growth Monte Carlo algorithm for growing a self-avoiding walk by appending steps to its endpoint. This algorithm can be generalised by the implementation of more general elementary moves (for example, BFACF elementary moves) to realise kinetic growth algorithms for lattice polygons. This generalises the counting principle that underlies the Rosenbluth method and the result is a widely applicable class of algorithms which may be used for microcanonical sampling in discrete models. In addition to self-avoiding walks, several applications of kinetic growth and canonical Monte Carlo algorithms will be presented, including the sampling of trivial words in abstract groups, as well as knotted lattice polygons and discrete lattice spin systems such as the Potts model. This is work was done in collaboration with Andrew Rechnitzer of the Mathematics Department at the University of British Columbia.

Quantum Physics

Quantum chaos is the study of quantum systems whose classical description is chaotic. How does chaos manifest itself in the quantum world? In recent years, attempts have been made to address this question from the perspective of quantum information theory. It is in this spirit that we study the connection between quantum chaos and information gain in the time series of a measurement record used for quantum tomography. The record is obtained as a sequence of expectation values of a Hermitian operator evolving under repeated application of the Floquet operator of the quantum kicked top on a large ensemble of identical systems. We find an increase in information gain and hence higher fidelities in the process when the Floquet maps employed increase in chaoticity. We make predictions for the information gain using random matrix theory in the fully chaotic regime and show a remarkable agreement between the two.

High Energy Physics

Two-dimensional gauge theories with (0,2) supersymmetry admit a much broader, and more interesting, class of solutions than their better studied (2,2) counterparts. In this talk, we will explore some of the possibilities that are offered by this additional freedom. The moduli spaces we find can be interpreted as the target spaces for heterotic strings moving in backgrounds with non-trivial H-flux. A remarkable relationship between (0,2) gauge anomalies and H-flux will emerge.
A robust constraint on cosmic textures from the cosmic microwave background

Astrophysics

Fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) contain information which has been pivotal in establishing the current cosmological model. These data can also be used to test well-motivated additions to this model, such as cosmic textures. Textures are a type of topological defect that can be produced during a cosmological phase transition in the early universe, and which leave characteristic hot and cold spots in the CMB. We apply Bayesian methods to carry out an optimal test of the texture hypothesis, using full-sky data from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe. We conclude that current data do not warrant augmenting the standard cosmological model with textures. We rule out at 95% confidence models that predict more than 6 detectable cosmic textures on the full sky.
