The center for Theoretical Physics (CPHT) at Ecole Polytechnique gathers research scientists working in diverse domains of fundamental and applied Physics. The overall coherence is assured by the corpus of common, transposable, mathematical and numerical methods.
CPHT is a joint research unit of CNRS and Ecole Polytechnique, and has a partnership with the Collège de France. His director is Jean-René Chazottes, Senior Researcher at CNRS.
CPHT is on the campus of Ecole Polytechnique, buildings 5 and 6. The reception offices are located in building 6 , offices 06.1046 and 06.1045.

From quantum gravity to conformal tensor models
Abstract:
I will present an overview of the path leading from non-perturbative approaches to quantum gravity to the recent development of field theories in the so-called "melonic limit".
Along such path one encounters topics such as asymptotic safety, dynamical triangulations, tensor models, AdS/CFT duality, and more. I will try to make sense of all that.
L’École polytechnique vient de se voir attribuer quatre bourses individuelles au titre du programme européen « Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie », représentant un taux exceptionnel de réussite de 30% des candidatures alors que le taux moyen est de 14%.
Pour le CPHT, les deux lauréats sont Evgeny Stepanov et Blagoje Oblak.
Evgeny Stepano sera accueilli au sein de l’équipe de Silke Biermann. Il est actuellement à l'Institut des molécules et matériaux de Nijmegen.
Blagoje Oblak intègrera l’équipe de Marios Petropoulos. Il est actuellement à l’École polytechnique fédérale de Zürich.
Urko Reinosa fait partie des 143 « Outstanding Referees » choisis par les éditeurs des journaux Physical Review en 2019. Ces outstanding referees sont sélectionnés parmi les 71000 referees en activité.
Voici le texte officiel :
Instituted in 2008, the Outstanding Referee program expresses appreciation for the essential work that anonymous peer reviewers do for our journals. Each year a small percentage of our 71,000 active referees are selected and honored with the Outstanding Referee designation. Selections are made based on the number, quality, and timeliness of referee reports as collected in a database over the last 30 years. A full listing and further details on the program are available here: http://journals.aps.org/OutstandingReferees.
In 2019 we will be celebrating the 61st anniversary of the Centre de Physique Théorique, founded in 1958 by Louis Michel. This institute is part of the Ecole Polytechnique research centre, widely acknowledged for its scientific diversity and international leadership, as well as for the prominent role of its members in teaching and outreach activities.
