Condensed Matter

We argue that dynamics of gapless Fractional Quantum Hall Edge states is essentially non-linear and that it features fractionally quantized solitons propagating along the edge. Observation of solitons would be a direct evidence of fractional charges. We show that the non-linear dynamics of the Laughlin's FQH state is governed by the quantum Benjamin-Ono equation.

Quantum Gravity

AdS/CFT is a duality relating the degrees of freedom in a D dimensional bulk gravity theory to a (D-1) dimensional theory living on the boundary. I will argue that in fact the boundary theory contains only a subset of the bulk observables. For each state of the boundary theory, there are multiple bulk states dual to it, which can be operationally distinguished by observers who fall across event horizons. Based on arXiv:1210.3590.
Plasma without Plasma: Exploring Force-Free Magnetospheres

Strong Gravity

Pulsars have enormous magnetic fields whose energy density dwarfs the rest mass density of their plasma magnetosphere. In this regime of a plasma, the particles drop out of the description, leaving a set of equations for the electromagnetic field alone. This non-linear, deterministic system is known as force-free electrodynamics, and turns out to have some beautiful and bizarre features. I will give a pedagogical introduction to these equations and their role in astrophysics and then discuss our recent contributions. We have taken a geometric viewpoint, using the null structure of spacetime to unify previous exact solutions and discover new ones. We have found non-stationary, non-axisymmetric solutions that describe the outer magnetosphere of pulsars, including those that are accelerated or torqued. We have derived the standard cartoon of the aligned pulsar magnetosphere from an explicit, minimal set of assumptions. Time permitting, I will also discuss some properties of black hole magnetospheres: Blandford-Znajek energy extraction, non-scattering force-free waves, and the no-ingrown-hair theorem.
