The unification of quantum mechanics and general relativity is the holy grail of fundamental theoretical physics. This thesis represents a small part of that effort, …
The Epoch of Reionization (EoR) marks the period in the universe's history where the neutral hydrogen (HI) in the intergalactic medium became ionized by the …
Amplitudeologists are interested in the general mathematical properties exhibited by amplitudes, asking questions like; which variables do planar N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills (SYM) amplitudes depend …
As the first galaxies and stars formed in the universe, their ultraviolet radiation ionized neutral hydrogen around them, creating bubbles of ionized gas. This time …
In this thesis, we present studies of off-shell supergravity theories in ten- and eleven-dimensional superspaces, polytopic supersymmetry representation theory, and the SUSY holography conjecture. First, …
This work studies the analytical structure of scattering amplitudes in a class of toy models, from the perspective of novel geometrical structures underlying scattering amplitudes, …
Dark matter is by nature extremely difficult to detect. The only force we are certain it interacts with is gravity, making gravitational studies a key …
We study scattering amplitudes in N=4 SYM, holographic models of four-dimensional flat-space scattering amplitudes in terms of two-dimensional conformal fields theories dubbed celestial CFTs (CCFT), …
