  1. 3913. (I) What is the simplicity of the early universe trying to tell us?
    Latham Boyle (Perimeter Institute)

    Symposia Day (DTP - DPT) - Hot Topics From Theory Made Accessible | Les sujets chauds de la théorie rendus accessibles
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    After reviewing some key hints and puzzles from the early
    universe, I will introduce recent joint work with Neil Turok
    suggesting a rigid and predictive new approach to addressing them.

    Our universe seems to be dominated by radiation at early times, and
    positive vacuum energy at late times. Taking the symmetry and
    analyticity properties of such a spacetime seriously leads to a...

  2. 3570. (I) Theoretical modeling of topological microelectronic devices with van Roosbroeck's equations
    Ion Garate

    Symposia Day (DTP - DPT) - Hot Topics From Theory Made Accessible | Les sujets chauds de la théorie rendus accessibles
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Van Roosbroeck’s equations constitute a versatile tool to determine the dynamics of electrons under time- and space-dependent perturbations. Extensively utilized in ordinary semiconductors, their potential to model devices made from topological materials remains untapped. In this talk, we will adapt van Roosbroeck’s equations to theoretically study the bulk response of a Weyl semimetal to an...

  3. 3742. (I) Quantum Computational Advantage with a Programmable Photonic Processor
    Nicolás Quesada (Polytechnique Montréal)

    Symposia Day (DTP - DPT) - Hot Topics From Theory Made Accessible | Les sujets chauds de la théorie rendus accessibles
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    A quantum computer attains computational advantage when outperforming the best classical computers running the best-known algorithms on well-defined tasks. We report quantum computational advantage using Borealis, a photonic processor offering dynamic programmability on all gates implemented. We carry out Gaussian boson sampling (GBS) on 216 squeezed modes entangled with three-dimensional...

  4. 3625. (I) How can we define and control the material properties of developing tissues?
    Dr Gonca Erdemci-Tandogan (Western University)

    Symposia Day (DTP - DPT) - Hot Topics From Theory Made Accessible | Les sujets chauds de la théorie rendus accessibles
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Tissue material properties can change drastically during embryonic development, reminiscent of rigidity transitions in physics. However, measuring the transitions or learning how to control the transitions is challenging experimentally. Theoretical and computational models provide new powerful tools to offer hypotheses on how to control the transitions. In this talk, I will introduce...
