In this talk we explore the potential of gravitational wave (GW) observations to probe the structure of hidden sectors beyond the Standard Model (BSM).  We argue that the sequential decoupling of new degrees of freedom in these sectors can leave … Read More

The “memory burden” effect describes how an object’s stored information resists its own decay. This effect is especially pronounced in “saturons”—systems with maximal entropy consistent with unitarity—of which black holes are prime examples. I will show how this memory burden … Read More

Cell motility plays a crucial role in various biological processes, such as embryogenesis, wound healing, and immune response. Although the complex molecular machinery driving cell motility is relatively well understood, it remains unclear how cells exhibit such diverse migration patterns, … Read More

I will discuss gravitational waves produced during the confinement phase transition in SU(N) Yang-Mills, using a holographic description. The key ingredient will be the construction of the effective action, with the kinetic term playing an important role. https://indico.ijs.si/event/2680/

The control over the self-assembly of complex structures is a long-standing challenge of biomimetic nanotechnology, as the desired assembly pathway is often kinetically derailed by the formation of competing alternative structures or amorphous aggregates. The goal of inverse design problem … Read More

I will motivate the use of E6 grand unified theory and describe a  realistic E6 GUT which gives rise to novel possible intermediate stages.  https://indico.ijs.si/event/2874/
