    • A Charcuterie Platter of QCD Matter 

      Sun, Zhiquan (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      One of the greatest current challenges in theoretical high energy physics is to understand the dynamics of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). In this thesis, I address a variety of questions in QCD using Effective Field Theory ...
    • Learning from pre-pandemic data to design and test future-proof therapeutics 

      Gurev, Sarah (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      Effective pandemic preparedness relies on predicting immune-evasive viral mutations to enable early detection of variants of concern and design vaccines and therapeutics that are resilient to future viral evolution. However, ...
    • Topics in quantum information theory and quantum many-body physics 

      Balasubramanian, Shankar (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-09)
      In this thesis we present two results relating to the intersection between quantum information theory and quantum many-body physics. The first pertains to quantum algorithms, where few computational problems are believed ...
