Quantum Gravity (Elective), PHYS 644, February 24 - March 28, 2025
13 talks-Collection NumberC25014The main goal of this course is to show in which ways General Relativity (GR) is similar, and especially in which ways it is different, from other gauge theories. The largest component of the course is dedicated to studying the specific symmetry structure of GR and how it intimately relates to its dynamics. To do so, we will introduce a host of concepts and techniques, broadly (and loosely) known under the name of “Covariant Phase Space Method”. This provides a different perspective on GR’s physics, a perspective in which phase space, rather than spacetime, is front and center. Along the way we will take a few detours: we will explore (parts of) the historical debate on whether gravity should be quantized at all, discuss how to think of time evolution when there is no absolute time, and go through Wald’s proposal of black hole entropy as a Noether charge. The intended outcome of the course is to provide a new perspective on GR which, hopefully, will inform you on why it is much harder to quantize than other theories – especially from a non-perturbative perspective. In this sense the course always keeps an eye on Quantum Gravity, even though there will be very little “quantum” in it. It is also a course that does not hinge on any specific approach to the quantization of gravity. Also, it is worth noting that the covariant phase space techniques are broadly used in the current literature on the black hole information paradox, soft symmetries, and holography, and is therefore a useful tool to learn if you are interested in any of these topics.

Magnetic Fields Around Compact Objects Workshop
30 talks-Collection NumberC25019
In the vicinity of neutron stars and black holes, where spacetime is strongly curved, magnetic fields can power many of the violent phenomena that we observe across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, from accretion and jet launching, to magnetar flares and pulsar emission. In the last decades, our theoretical understanding of the role of magnetic fields in these extreme environments has greatly improved through numerical simulations of magnetohydrodynamical fluids and charged kinetic particles; however, many open and important questions remain. Our observational capabilities and computational resources will keep growing dramatically in the next few years, allowing us to explore high-energy astrophysics in unprecedented regimes. Improving our knowledge of how magnetic fields, matter, and gravity interact with each other is a crucial piece in the new era of multimessenger astrophysics.
This workshop will gather experts from a wide range of disciplines within physics and astrophysics to present state-of-the-art advances in theoretical models of magnetic fields and high-energy plasma in different contexts, from neutron star mergers to supermassive black holes, and from micro scales to macro scales.
This workshop is sponsored in part by the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA).

Emmy Noether Workshop: Quantum Space Time
14 talks-Collection NumberC25017
Constructing a theory of quantum gravity, and with it a notion of quantum spacetime is one of the biggest challenges faced by modern theoretical physics. This workshop will bring together researchers from a wide range of viewpoints and give them an opportunity to exchange ideas and gain new insights.
The workshop is supported by the Simons Foundation.

Quantum Foundations (Elective), PHYS 639, January 6 - February 5, 2025
13 talks-Collection NumberC25010This course will cover the basics of Quantum Foundations under three main headings. Part I – Novel effects in Quantum Theory. A number of interesting quantum effects will be considered. Interferometers: Mach-Zehnder interferometer, Elitzur-Vaidman bomb tester, The quantum-Zeno effect. The no cloning theorem. Quantum optics (single mode). Hong-Ou-Mandel dip. Part II - Conceptual and interpretational issues. Axioms for quantum theory for pure states: Von-Neumann measurement model. * The measurement (or reality) problem. EPR Einstein’s 1927 remarks, the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen argument. Bell’s theorem, nonlocality without inequalities. The Tirolson bound. The Kochen-Specker theorem and related work by Spekkens On the reality of the wavefunction: Epistemic versus ontic interpretations of the wavefunction and the Pusey-Barrett-Rudolph theorem proving the reality of the wave function. Gleason’s theorem. Interpretations. The landscape of interpretations of quantum theory (the Harrigen Spekkens classification). The de Broglie-Bohm interpretation, the many worlds interpretation, wave- function collapse models, the Copenhagen interpretation, and QBism. Part III - Structural issues. Reformulating quantum theory: we will look at some reformulations of quantum theory and consider the light they throw on the structure of quantum theory. These may include time symmetric quantum theory and weak measurements (Aharonov et al), quantum Bayesian networks, and the operator tensor formalism. Generalised probability theories: These are more general frameworks for probabilistic theories which admit classical and quantum as special cases. Reasonable principles for quantum theory: we will review some of the recent work on reconstructing quantum theory from simple principles. Indefinite causal structure and indefinite causal order. Finally we will conclude by looking at (i) the close link between quantum foundations and quantum information and (ii) possible future directions in quantum gravity motivated by ideas from quantum foundations.
