Two-point functions and bootstrap applications in quantum field theories

We study two-point functions of local operators and their spectral representation in UV complete quantum field theories in generic dimensions focusing on conserved currents and the stress-tensor. We establish the connection with the central charges of the ...

Invariance principles in the theory and computation of transport coefficients

Federico Grasselli

In this work, we elaborate on two recently discovered invariance principles, according to which transport coefficients are, to a large extent, independent of the microscopic definition of the densities and currents of the conserved quantities being transpo ...

Generation of chiral asymmetry via helical magnetic fields

Ruth Durrer

It is well known that helical magnetic fields undergo a so-called inverse cascade by which their correlation length grows due to the conservation of magnetic helicity in classical ideal magnetohydro-dynamics (MHD). At high energies above approximately 10 M ...

Bootstrapping superconformal field theories in four dimensions

Andrea Manenti

The conformal bootstrap is a non-perturbative technique designed to study conformal field theories using only first principles, such as unitarity, crossing symmetry and the existence of an Operator Product Expansion. In this thesis we discuss an applicatio ...

Geometric Model Order Reduction

Babak Maboudi Afkham

During the past decade, model order reduction (MOR) has been successfully applied to reduce the computational complexity of elliptic and parabolic systems of partial differential equations (PDEs). However, MOR of hyperbolic equations remains a challenge. S ...

Naturalness and Neutral Naturalness in the LHC Era

Davide Greco

We present two different approaches to solve the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model and to provide a consistent dynamical mechanism for electroweak symmetry breaking. As a first scenario, we follow the naturalness paradigm as realized in Composite Hig ...

Mitochondrial unfolded protein response, its molecular mechanism and physiological impact

Virginija Jovaisaite

Mitochondria are the main producers of ATP, the energy currency of the cell, and they perform a wide array of other fundamental functions. These organelles are essential not only for cellular metabolism, but also for organismal physiology and lifespan. A r ...

Accuracy of momentum and gyrodensity transport in global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell simulations

Laurent Villard, Ben McMillan

Gyrokinetic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations based on conservative Lagrangian formalisms admit transport equations for conserved quantities such as gyrodensity and toroidal momentum, and these can be derived for arbitrary wavelength, even though previous ...

Concentration Compactness for critical wave maps

Joachim Krieger

Wave maps are the simplest wave equations taking their values in a Riemannian manifold (M,g). Their Lagrangian is the same as for the scalar equation, the only difference being that lengths are measured with respect to the metric g. By Noether's theorem, s ...

Feedback Linearizability and Flatness in Restricted Control Systems

Philippe Müllhaupt, Basile Graf

The loss of feedback linearizability of control systems is studied when restricted to a submanifold of the state-space. The slow approximation of singularly perturbed systems also falls into this category. We show that even if the static-feedback lineariza ...
