摘要:
基於熱力學第二定律的卡拉西奧多裡原理,引入量子熱力學可積性(QTI)的概念,爲統計力學提供了個現代基礎。在這一框架下,溫度作爲一個積分因子, 伴隨着熱力學熵衍生出來。從而基於 QTI熵可積方程(EIE),不僅可以推導出正則熱平衡態, 而且得到了偏離熱平衡的非正則態,從而揭示了有限尺寸熱力學系統和有限時間過程中信息相關性的存在,如黑洞等小系統的輻射關聯及其信息丟失現象。有限時間熱循環過程的標誌是熵產生,它導致的功率-效率約束關係, 對此我們不僅進行了系統性的實驗檢驗,而且建立了其最優調控的黎曼幾何方法。這些工作代表了我們過去二十年對統計熱力學從基礎到應用、從經典到量子、從平衡到非平衡的研究探索的系列性成果。

摘要:
Neutrinoless double-beta decay is one of the most interesting nuclear reactions. In this talk, I introduce Nuclear Lattice Effective Field Theory as a new tool in nuclear theory. It allows to address nuclear structure and reactions simultaneously. I show assorted results obtained so far. In particular, I will address the recent work on triton beta-decay, which is an important first step in addressing neutrinoless double-beta decay in this framework.

摘要:
The projective truncation approximation (PTA) is a systematic and well-controlled method for solving the equation of motion of two-time Green's functions for many-body system. It has advantages over the conventional Tyablicov truncation sheme due to the projection idea. In this talk, I will report recent progress in the developement of PTA, including (1) H-expanded basis for describing thermal decay of particles, and (2) composite basis for describing quasi-particle interaction and collective excitation.

摘要:
In this talk I will present our efforts to go beyond the "standard" model of the quantum spin liquid, which was formulated as a gauge theory. The new formulation is a Landau-type effective theory. Both quasiparticle-like excitations and collective modes will be discussed, as well as their physical consequences.

摘要:
I will discuss primordial universe scenarios where the inflaton is weakly coupled to a strongly-self-interacting theory, and study the imprints in cosmological correlators. There are three general scenarios for the strongly coupled sector based on its mass gap in Hubble units. I will focus on the gapless scenario, which I fully solved, and will discuss two approaches to computing its correlators: the Cosmological Bootstrap and Mellin-Barnes integration. Finally, I will compare the signals to weakly coupled scenarios and comment on the potential to distinguish them.

摘要:
The ponderomotive force is an effective static force that a particle feels in an oscillating field, whose static potential may be called the ponderomotive potential. We generalize this notion to periodically driven quantum many-body systems, and propose it as a convenient tool to engineer their non-equilibrium steady states beyond the single particle level. Applied to materials driven by light, the ponderomotive potential is intimately related to the equilibrium optical conductivity, which is enhanced close to resonances. We show that the ponderomotive potential from the incident light may be used to induce exciton condensates in semiconductors, to generate attractive interactions leading to superconductivity in certain electron-phonon systems, and to create additional free energy minima in systems with charge/spin/excitonic orders. These effects are presented with experimentally relevant parameters.

摘要:
Tiny neutrino masses and large lepton flavor mixing angles areexpected to originate from new physics bevond the standard mode(SM) of particle physics, but which kind of new physies is mostlikely has been an open question. This talk is intended to highlightthe canonical seesaw mechanism as a favorite, given the lessonlearnt from historical roles that lepton fayors haye plaved in thedevelopment of the SM. Some personal opinions are added on painsand gains in introducing new degrees of freedom.

摘要:
The absence of signals for new heavy resonances at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) suggests that the scale of new physics(NP) likely significantly exceeds the electroweak scale. The Standard Model Effective Field Theory(SMEFT) has become avaluable framework for systematically capturing potential NP effects, with leading contributions expected from dim-6 operators. However, chirality-flipping dim-6 operators for light fermions,which are poorly constrained as their interference with the SM will be highly suppressed. In this talk, l will discuss recent progress in exploring these NP effects through transverse polarization effects without such suppression, and it also offering a new avenue to investigate potential CP violation effects.

摘要:
Wave effects are a crucial aspect of gravitational waves. When the wavelength of GWs is comparable to or greater than the Schwarzschild radius of an object, the propagation of gravitational waves no longer follows geometrical optics, and coherence and interference can occur. Despite their significance, studying these wave effects can be challenging due to their complexity.
In this talk, I will discuss numerical techniques for simulating these effects in the gravitational field of a Schwarzschild black hole. I will talk about the back-scattering effect of the interaction between GWs and the background curvature. Finally, I will discuss the potential detectability of these wave effects in aLIGO.
