I briefly summarize highlights of ICHEP2018, comment on the 50th anniversary of the Standard Model, and share some of my thoughts for the future.

Four parallel workshops were organized at the 1996 Girona Conference, "Blazars, Black Holes, and Jets", with conference attendees free to choose which session they would like to attend. The chosen topics were ``Jet Models'',…

We introduce the notion of an extended moment in time, the duron. This is a region of temporal ambiguity which arises naturally in the nature of process which we take to be basic. We introduce an algebra of process and show how it is…

The perspective is advanced that the time parameter in quantum mechanics corresponds to the time coordinate in a Minkowski flat spacetime local approximation to the actual dynamical curved spacetime of General Relativity, rather than to an…

This paper is partly based on a lecture delivered by the author at the ERC workshop "Geometric Partial Differential Equations" held in Pisa in September 2012. What is presented here is an expanded version of that lecture.

In this proceedings for the MG14 conference, we discuss the construction of a phenomenology of Planck-scale effects in curved spacetimes, underline a few open issues and describe some perspectives for the future of this research line.

This paper also has excessove overlap with the following papers also written by the authors or their collaborators: gr-qc/0502060, gr-qc/0606028, gr-qc/0511095, gr-qc/0505078, gr-qc/0603044, gr-qc/0608014, gr-qc/0510123, gr-qc/0607109,…

Since antiquity, from Euclid of Alexandria to Galileo Galilei to Immanuel Kant to Hermann Minkowksi to Albert Einstein, the question of the nature of space and time has occupied scientists and philosophers. In the four-dimensional…

We review the methodology to theoretically treat parity-time- ($\mathcal{PT}$-) symmetric, non-Hermitian quantum many-body systems... (For the full abstract see paper)

Three small lectures are devoted to three Newton's laws, lying in the foundation of classical mechanics. These laws are analyzed from the viewpoint of our contemporary knowledge about space, time and physical interactions. The lectures were…

This essay presents an accessible introduction to the basic motivations to seek a quantum theory of gravity. It focuses on one approach- loop quantum gravity - as an example of the rich philosophical issues that arise when we try to combine…

Riemann's mathematical papers contain many ideas that arise from physics, and some of them are motivated by problems from physics. In fact, it is not easy to separate Riemann's ideas in mathematics from those in physics. Furthermore,…

Here, we attempt to summarize the activities of Track 3 of the 17th International Workshop on Advanced Computing and Analysis Techniques in Physics Research (ACAT 2016).

These notes are the first half of the contents of the course given by the second author at the Bachelier Seminar (February 8-15-22 2008) at IHP. They also correspond to topics studied by the first author for her Ph.D.thesis.

We investigate the impact of singularities occurring at future times in solutions of the Friedmann equations expressed in conformal coordinates. We focus on the consequences of extending the time coordinate through the singularity for the…

In this review we present the problem of time in quantum physics, including a short history of the problem and the known objections about considering time a quantum observable. The need to deal with time as an observable is elaborated…

These notes are an account of a series of lectures given at the Les Houches Summer School "Active Matter and Non-equilibrium Statistical Physics" during August and September 2018. The lectures can be viewed online at…

These notes are a transcript of Carlo Rovelli's lectures on Loop Quantum Gravity, given in Marseille in 2018, which (at present) can be entirely found on YouTube. I transcribed them in LaTeX in early 2020 as an exercise to get ready for my…

A physical theory is proposed that obeys both the principles of special relativity and of quantum mechanics. As a key feature, the laws are formulated in terms of quantum events rather than of particle states. Temporal and spatial…
