Title: Different approaches to gravity from Yang-Mills squared Abstract: The idea of writing various quantities in gravity as double copies of the analogous objects in Yang-Mills gauge theory has been gaining a lot of traction in recent years… Read More

The School of Theoretical Physics of the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies invites applications for one (possibly two) junior post-doctoral scholarships in theoretical physics. Applicants are welcome from all fields of theoretical and mathematical physics; however, preference will… Read More

One and possibly two Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship are available in the School of Theoretical Physics of the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. These are dedicated research positions for up to five years. Candidates must have a proven record… Read More

Title: Asymptotics of Young diagrams through Matrix Models Abstract: Growth of Young diagrams is an important topic of study in asymptotic representation theory. In this seminar, we will talk about a matrix model description of growth processes of… Read More

Title: Composite dark matter and the role of lattice field theory Abstract: Abundant evidence indicates that most matter in the universe is dark, but the fundamental nature of this dark matter remains unknown.  I will discuss the intriguing… Read More

Title: On colour-kinematics duality and the double copy Abstract: We begin by reviewing the colour-kinematics duality of (super) Yang-Mills theory and its double copy into (super)gravity. We then show that off-shell colour-kinematics duality can be made manifest in… Read More
