Explore advanced concepts in theoretical physics through this high energy theory seminar examining how localized bulk events in spacetimes with asymptotically anti-de-Sitter boundaries create characteristic signals at boundary locations that are lightlike from the event. Learn about innovative thought experiments that utilize boundary wavepackets to measure bulk geometry and bulk scattering amplitudes through these signals. Discover new signatures of bulk causality and local dynamics on boundary correlation functions, gaining insights into the fundamental relationship between bulk spacetime physics and boundary observables. Delve into cutting-edge research that bridges general relativity, quantum field theory, and the AdS/CFT correspondence, presented by Simon Caron-Huot from McGill University at the Institute for Advanced Study.
