Nel seminario presenterò alcune delle linee principali della mia attività di ricerca, situata all'intersezione tra logica, teoria delle categorie e teoria dei tipi. Nello specifico, mi interesso del r...
The wolf note is an acoustic instability that occurs in large bowed string instruments when a strong body resonance interacts with the vibrating string, producing amplitude modulation and loss of tona...
Abstract: The Tomita-Takesaki modular operator for local algebras plays an important role in quantum field theory, and more recently in the study of relative entropy. However, the explicit expression ...
Extrinsic curvature flows provide powerful analytic tools to deform
hypersurfaces toward canonical shapes. Among them, mean curvature flow evolves
a hypersurface in the direction of its mean curvature...
Macroscopic Fluctuations Theory is the cornerstone of modern non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Developed for boundary driven diffusive systems during the last 25 years, it remains mainly limited...
Abstract: This talk will give a bird's eye view of about 50 years of progress in quantum gravity by focusing on one
of its most surprising features; namely, the correspondence it establishes between s...
Computing relative entropy in QFT generally requires handling relative modular Hamiltonians, which have nice general properties but are typically very difficult to compute explicitly. Exploiting local...
The classical Torelli theorem, which recovers a smooth curve from its polarized Jacobian, was proved by Andreotti through an argument that reconstructs the canonical model of the curve by means of the...
Abstract: Vaughan Jones discovered unexpected connections between subfactor theory and Richard Thompson's group T while attempting to construct conformal field theories (CFTs). I will present a progra...
We give an effective characterization of semiabelian varieties among quasi-projective varieties of maximal Albanese dimension. This is joint work with J. Baudin....
