As quantum theory celebrates its 100th birthday, spectacular successes are mixed with outstanding puzzles and promises of new technologies. This article reviews both the successes of quantum theory and the ongoing debate about its…
The search for dark matter is a very wide and active field of research. Many potential hints of dark matter have appeared recently which led to a burst of theoretical activity and model building. I necessarily concentrate here only in some…
The properties of finite lumps of strange quark matter (strangelets) with emphasis on the two scenarios of producing strange matter in relativistic heavy ion collisions are summarized. As an outlook, the possibility of short-lived strange…
The present knowledge on charm and leptons is reviewed including the topics discussed at this conference and the progress made since the last Quark Matter conference. Special emphasis is placed on Jpsi production at the SPS which is one of…
This is the write-up of the summary talk on theory activities in the heavy-ion community as presented at Quark Matter 2025. It contains a (biased) selection of results from the parallel program of the conference. The progress is reported…
Strange quark matter (SQM) is considered a possible true ground state of QCD at high densities. This idea motivates research on exotic compact objects and certain cosmic-ray phenomena. For instance, the remnant HESS J1731-347 contains a…
Some recent developments in the heavy quark theory are briefly reviewed. The main emphasis is put on interrelation between HQET and OPE. The notion of duality and deviations from duality are discussed in detail.
This progress report covers recent developments in the area of quantum randomness, which is an extraordinarily interdisciplinary area that belongs not only to physics, but also to philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and technology.…
I briefly review several important formal theory developments in quantum field theory and string theory that were reported at ICHEP conferences in past decades, and explain how they underlie a new research area referred to as physical or…
A review of envisaged future quark transversity measurements is presented.
I review in a schematic way the current status of indirect searches for Dark Matter: I list the main relevant experimental results of the recent years and I discuss the excitements and disappointments that their phenomenological…
In this note, we explore some recent advancements in enumerative algebraic geometry, focusing particularly on the role of quantum K-theory of quiver varieties as viewed through the lens of integrable systems. We highlight a number of…
The extravagances of quantum mechanics never fail to enrich daily the debate around natural philosophy. Entanglement, non-locality, collapse, many worlds, many minds, and subjectivism have challenged generations of thinkers. Its approach…
In these conference proceedings, we discuss recent progress in high-order perturbative studies of the thermodynamic and transport properties of dense quark matter. Special emphasis is placed on the introduction of a promising new…
We survey recent developments on the Restriction conjecture.
In this report we review recent progress achieved in the understanding of heavy quarkonium under extreme conditions from a theory perspective. Its focus lies both on quarkonium properties in thermal equilibrium, as well as recent…
Some recent results and problems in the theory of particles containing heavy quarks ar reviewed.
The ground state of matter may be strange quark matter (SQM), not hadronic matter. A whole sequence of SQM objects, ranging from strange quark stars and strange quark dwarfs to strange quark planets, can stably exist according to this SQM…
