1-loop diagram in AdS space and the random disorder problem
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: AdS/CFT has proven itself a powerful tool in extending our understanding of strongly coupled quantum theories. While studies of AdS/CFT have predominantly focused on tree level calculations, there has been growing interest in the loop effect recently. We studied the 1-loop correction to the gauge bo... read more

Massive gravity in 3-D and the Chern-Simons-Proca theory
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: TBA

Lattice chirality: a mission (im)possible?
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: As LHC era is coming close, all sorts of ideas about physics beyond the standard model are being explored. It remains possible that a strong-coupling chiral theory could appear at TeV scale. When it comes to strongly coupled theories, lattice is still the most reliable and straightforward regulariza... read more

IR modification of gravity and the forbidden mass range of spin-2 particles in De Sitter space
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: One of the most challenging problems in theoretical physics today is the so called cosmological constant problem. While current observations are consistent with the prediction of GR with an unexplainable tiny cosmological constant, it remains possible that it's the deviation of the law of gravity at... read more

IR modification of gravity and the forbidden mass range of graviton in de Sitter Space
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: One of the most challenging problems in theoretical physics today is the so called cosmological constant problem. While current observational constraints are consistent with the predictions of GR with a tiny cosmological constant, often referred to as the dark energy, it remains possible that it's t... read more

Lattice Chirality and the Decoupling of Mirror Fermions
Speaker(s): Yanwen Shang
Abstract: With LHC commissioned in just a few month ahead, all sorts of ideas about physics beyond the standard model are being explored intensively. A strong-coupling chiral theory appearing at TeV scale remains a possibility but also a very hard scenario to study. When it comes to strongly coupled theories,... read more
