From Coulomb to Kerr via the double copy - Donal O'Connell

Donal O'Connell University of Edinburgh
October 13, 2021 PIRSA:21100022
Other
The double copy relates scattering amplitudes in gauge theory and gravity. But interaction potentials (and spacetime metrics) can be extracted from amplitudes, and so the double copy leads to a relationship between classical solutions of gauge theory and gravity. In this talk I will describe this relationship, provide a perspective on the Schwarzschild metric as a “square” of the Coulomb charge, and take a look at the “square root” of the Kerr metric.

As COVID-19 continues to impose gathering restrictions, the “Postdoc Welcome 2021” will continue as a virtual event this year and will be hosted on Thursday, October 28 and Friday, October 29. Each new postdoc will be given 5 minutes to introduce themselves to the PI Community. The time will be used to tell us a little bit about themselves and to showcase their current research. These presentations are very casual and should not be misconstrued as formal talks. Some discussion will follow the presentations, whereby current PI Residents may have the opportunity to ask questions.

There will be two 60-minute sessions:
Thursday, October 28: 12:00 – 1:00 pm
Friday, October 29: 11:30 – 12:30 pm

All PI Residents are encouraged to attend. Registration will remain open until 9:00 am on Thursday, October 28.

Please register for the Postdoc Welcome via the event website: https://events.perimeterinstitute.ca/event/9/overview

The Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection

In 1930, the famous statistician and geneticist Ronald Fisher claimed to have proved a "fundamental theorem of natural selection". He compared this result to the second law of thermodynamics, and described it as holding "the supreme position among the biological sciences". But others found it obscure, and in its most obvious interpretation it is simply false. Luckily there is a true result closely resembling Fisher's claim: a general theorem connecting dynamical systems and information theory. I'll explain this, give the very simple proof, and draw a few conclusions.

Shallow circuits and the quantum-classical boundary

Other
In the last few years there have been demonstrations of quantum advantage using noisy quantum circuits that are believed to go beyond the limits of the classical computers that exist today. In this talk I will give an overview of a different type of quantum advantage that can be attained by shallow (short-depth) quantum circuits. I will discuss recent results which establish unconditionally that constant-depth quantum circuits can solve certain linear algebra problems faster than their classical counterparts. We will see that the reason quantum computers solve these problems provably faster (as measured by circuit depth) than classical computers is due to a strong form of quantum nonlocality that is present in their input/output statistics.
