This text is about the mathematical use of certain divergent power series. The first part is an introduction to 1-summability. The definitions rely on the formal Borel transform and the Laplace transform along an arbitrary direction of the…
Recent studies, using the AdS/CFT correspondence, of the radiation produced by a decaying system or by an accelerated charge in the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, led to a striking result: the 'supergravity backreaction', which is…

We summarise highlights from an ongoing research programme that aims, in the long run, at the ambitious goal of building a realistic, complete holographic composite-Higgs model. This contribution focuses on vacuum misalignment, by showing…
We elaborate on the resurgence analysis on the $T\overline{T}$-deformed 2d conformal field theory (CFT). Writing the deformed partition function as an infinite series in the deformation parameter $\lambda$, we develop efficient analytical…
We study the decoherence of a superconducting qubit due to the dispersive coupling to a damped harmonic oscillator. We go beyond the weak qubit-oscillator coupling, which we associate with a phase Purcell effect, and enter into a strong…
We develop a general framework for identifying phase reduced equations for finite populations of coupled oscillators that is valid far beyond the weak coupling approximation. This strategy represents a general extension of the theory from…
A theory is presented which allows us to accurately calculate the density profile of monovalent and multivalent counterions in suspensions of polarizable colloids or nano-particles. In the case of monovalent ions, we derive a weak-coupling…
A non-perturbative method which can go beyond the weak coupling perturbation theory is introduced. Essential idea is to formulate a set of exact differential equations as a function of the coupling strength $g$. Unlike other resummation in…

We investigate coherent oscillations in large scale transmission power grids, where large groups of generators respond in unison to a distant disturbance. Such long wavelength coherent phenomena are known as inter-area oscillations. Their…
In classical analysis, the convergence behavior of power series solutions to differential or recurrence equations is generally assumed to be invariant under internal rearrangement. This paper challenges that belief by proving that, for…
Using perturbation theory in the strong coupling regime, that is, the dual Dyson series, and renormalization group techniques to re-sum secular terms, we obtain the perturbation series of the two-level system driven by a sinusoidal field…
We generalize the notion of an asymptotic weak coupling expansion about an exactly solvable model in quantum mechanics and quantum field theory to an all positive value coupling convergent expansion. This is done by rescaling the variables…
Quantizing the mirror curve to a toric Calabi-Yau threefold gives rise to quantum operators whose fermionic spectral traces produce factorially divergent formal power series in the Planck constant and its inverse. These are conjecturally…
This paper studies fundamental questions concerning category-theoretic models of induction and recursion. We are concerned with the relationship between well-founded and recursive coalgebras for an endofunctor. For monomorphism preserving…
Realising scalable quantum networks requires a meticulous level of understanding and mitigating the deleterious effects of decoherence. Many quantum device platforms feature multiple decoherence mechanisms, often with a dominant mechanism…
The coupling between two or more objects can generally be categorized as strong or weak. In cavity quantum electrodynamics for example, when the coupling strength is larger than the loss rate the coupling is termed strong, and otherwise it…
The holomorphic anomaly equations describe B-model closed topological strings in Calabi-Yau geometries. Having been used to construct perturbative expansions, it was recently shown that they can also be extended past perturbation theory by…
