Seminars

During the semester we have a high energy seminar and a lunch seminar. In addition to these two seminars we participate in a joint theoretical high energy theory seminar in Newe Shalom. The joint seminar takes place on Tuesdays from 10:30 until 13:30 and includes two talks and lunch. This seminar is attended by the high energy groups of all the Israeli institutions and usually attracts a crowd of roughly twenty participants.

Title: Stringy ER=EPR.

Abstract: I will discuss a Lorentzian interpretation of the FZZ duality as an equivalence between string perturbation theory about a two sided black hole and an entangled combination of disconnected microstates. The microstates involve a condensate of folded strings extending from a strong coupling region. Part of the machinery involves string theory defined on Schwinger-Keldysh contours in target space, and a novel contour of integration of the string moduli associated to angular quantization. I will further present an AdS3 uplift of this duality.

Title: Deviations from factorization in SYK

Abstract: Recently, there has been a revived interest in multi-boundary holographic systems and the contribution of Euclidean wormholes, in particular in Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity. We consider Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) as a microscopic model for such holographic systems. While in JT gravity the non-factorizing contributions come from geometric wormholes, we get that in SYK there are much larger contributions. We give a diagrammatic description of all those leading contributions, analogous to Feynman diagrams. The holographic behavior is particularly interesting for fixed SYK couplings due to factorization, and we comment on that as well.

Title: 6d/5d dualities from Higgsing

Abstract: (Based on https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.02799 with a slightly different title.) 
5d supersymmetric gauge theories are sometimes UV completed by 6d SCFTs. One such example is the duality between the affine quiver gauge theory in 5d and 6d so-called “conformal matter” theory labeled by a D or E type lie algebra. In this talk we will see that starting from this duality and performing nilpotent Higgsing on both sides, one can generate a huge set of 6d/5d dualities. The 6d side often involves a twist along a compactification by a discrete symmetry. The 5d side does not always admit a gauge theory description, but sometimes does and involves an exceptional gauge group including G or F type or an exceptional (non-fundamental) matter content. As a byproduct, we get a web-based formalism to compute the Nekrasov partition function for some of the exceptional 5d gauge theories.
