Calendar of Physics Talks Vienna
| Speaker: | Xiaosong Ma (CoQuS) |
| Abstract: | In this talk, I will introduce our recent work on quantum delayed-choice experiment based on multiphoton entangled states, which shows that a photon can not only be a particle or wave, but the superposition of them, even under Einstein’s locality condition. In the second part of my talk, I will present our recent endeavors in developing functional nodes for quantum information processing based on integrated optics architecture and their potential applications in a metropolitan fiber network. |

| Quantum systems in relativistic fuzzy spaces |
| Speaker: | Peter Presnajder (Comenius University Bratislava) |
| Abstract: | We define realizations of relativistic fuzzy spaces in terms of two and four copies
of annihilation and creation operators. Operators generating (extended) relativistic
symmetry are constructed and their properties investigated. Such systems incorporate
three fundamental constants (Planck constant, velocity of light and fundamental length
or mass). We shall discuss structures emerging in such systems that seem to be
compatible with usual gravity.

| On the unique evolution of solutions to wave equations |
| Speaker: | Jan Sbierski (Oxford) |
| Abstract: | The well-known theorem of Choquet-Bruhat and Geroch states that for given smooth initial data for the Einstein equations there exists a unique maximal globally hyperbolic development. In particular, the time-evolution of globally hyperbolic solutions is unique. This talk investigates whether the same results hold for quasilinear wave equations defined on a fixed background. We first present an example of a quasilinear wave equation for which unique evolution of smooth globally hyperbolic solutions in fact fails and contrast this case with the Einstein equations. We then proceed by presenting conditions which guarantee unique evolution. This talk is based on joint work with Felicity Eperon and Harvey Reall |
