Recent developments in asymptotic safety: tests and properties
Tim Morris - University of Southampton
The talk will review recent tests of the asymptotic safety conjecture within functional renormalisation group studies and progress in understanding the properties that such a fixed point would have.
Compact objects as dark-matter probes
Paolo Pani - Instituto Superior Tecnico - Departamento de Física
In the last few years the possibility of constraining dark matter with astrophysical observations of compact objects, such as white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes, has been explored. The ultra-high density interior of neutron stars and the strong-curvature regions near massive black holes…
Universal problems
David Mattingly - University of New Hampshire
Arguments that gravity cannot be a local renormalizable quantum field theory come from both field theory lore and black hole physics. Two current approaches to quantum gravity, asymptotic safety and Horava-Lifshitz gravity, both of which treat quantum gravity as a local renormalizable QFT, are…
Exact Classical Simulation of the Quantum-Mechanical GHZ Distribution
Gilles Brassard - Université de Montréal
John Bell has shown that the correlations entailed by quantum mechanics cannot be reproduced by a classical process involving non-communicating parties. But can they be simulated with the help of bounded communication? This problem has been studied for more than twenty years and it is now well…
Categories of Convex Sets and C*-Algebras
Robert Furber - Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen
The start of the talk will be an outline how the ordinary notions of quantum theory translate into the category of C*-algebras, where there are several possible choices of morphisms. The second half will relate this to a category of convex sets used as state spaces. Alfsen and Shultz have…
