This is my public page. Here is my private talk page.

At present, the information here is little more than a brain dump. It will get organized in time.

Research

• Quantum Insert Algorithm, the pedagogical version.
• Black Hole Thermodynamics, anomalous currents, and Hawking radiation.
• Notes on blackbody radiation in d dimensions and spherical coordinates.
• Casimir Thermodynamics
• Virial Theorem, conformal symmetry, Callan-Szymanzik, fluctuation-dissipation, and LSZ. Yes, all of them.
• Nanoscale engineered metamaterials as Maxwell's Demons. theory and applications.
• Asymptotically Safe UV CFT
• Field amplitude cutoff regulation in QFT and orthogonal polynomial bases for renormalization group flow.
• Photonic crystal black holes analogs
• Why does background field theory fail for 1-loop β-function corrections from 1-loop gravitons?
• Spongiform Encephalopathy, aka Biophysical pathodynamics of prion diseases, aka How Now Mad Cow?
• Ecology and population dynamics of zombie invasions
• Time Travel, initial value problems.
• Pickup Ions
• Domain wall fermions (and other particle modes) and broken Poincare symmetry
• spacetime swimming
• constraints on effective non-central forces in systems of classical rigid bodies and particles due to macroscopic and microscopic conservation of angular momentum.
• Determination of the Lorentz force for the limit of a colored nonrelativistic particle charged under a Yang-Mills force.
• Energy spectra of particles tunneling through a barrier: whence thermality?

Teaching

• 8.01
• 8.13/14
• Course development: Methods of Physics
• Course development: Graduate Physics Qualifying Seminar
• Course development: Graduate Physics Teacher Training
• Course development: Quantum Field Theory (Abstract Mechanics) for Undergrads
