| Analysing the optical nonlinearity of a cavity-like subwavelength atomic array (Vienna Theory Lunch Seminar) |
| Speaker: | Simon Panyella Pedersen (TU Wien) |
| Abstract: |
Sub-wavelength arrays of quantum emitters offer an interesting approach to coherent light-matter interfacing, using ultracold atoms or two-dimensional solid-state quantum materials. The combination of collectively suppressed photon-losses and emerging optical nonlinearities due to strong photon-coupling to mesoscopic numbers of emitters holds promise for generating nonclassical light and engineering effective interactions between freely propagating photons. In my talk I will describe the interaction between photons and a specific configuration of two-level atoms, namely two parallel 2D arrays individually acting like mirrors and together forming a cavity-like system.

| Fuzzy de Sitter spaces in three and four dimensions |
| Speaker: | Ilija Buric (University of Pisa) |
| Abstract: | We discuss noncommutative (anti) de Sitter spaces in two, three and four dimensions. After recalling their definitions, we analyse coordinate spectra, coherent states, invariant vacua and eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. Our results pave the way for the analysis of late time correlation functions in QFTs on fuzzy dS backgrounds, of potential relevance for inflationary cosmology. The talk is based on joint works with Bojana BrkiÄ, Maja BuriÄ and DuÅ¡ko Latas. |

| Small Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes, quantum extremal surfaces and islands |
| Speaker: | Kaberi Goswami (Chennai Mathematical Institute (CMI)) |
| Abstract: | In arxiv: 2312.05604 we have studied 4-dimensional
Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes in the regime where the black hole mass is small compared with the de Sitter scale, following arXiv:2207.10724
[hep-th]. The de Sitter temperature is very low compared with that of
the black hole. We consider the future boundary as the location where
the black hole Hawking radiation is collected. Using 2-dimensional
tools, we find unbounded growth of the entanglement entropy of radiation
as the radiation region approaches the entire future boundary. Self-consistently including appropriate late time islands emerging just
inside the black hole horizon leads to a reasonable Page curve. We also
discuss other potential island solutions which show inconsistencies.
