Fully Funded Scholarship at Swansea University EPSRC and STFC PhD 2021–Apply Now

Closing date: 14 March 2021

Key Information

This scholarship is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC).

Start date: October 2021

Supervisors: 

• Supervisor 1: Professor Prem Kumar (Physics)
• Supervisor 2: Professosr Biagio Lucini (Maths)
• Supervisor 3: Professor Tim Hollowood (Physics) & Dr Dan Thompson (Physics)

Project description:

This theoretical project will develop novel, rigorous techniques, to calculate refined measures of quantum entanglement of spatial regions in conformal field theories with boundaries (BCFTs) at large central charge, in thermal and “locally quenched” non-thermal initial states.

At large central charge, BCFT correlators that compute measures of quantum information are expected to undergo a sharp transition (as a function of the size of spatial regions). This is due to a switch in dominance between intermediate exchanges involving bulk primary states to intermediate exchanges of boundary states.

A major goal will be to make precise this qualitative picture within the framework of “generalized free fields” which have recently been proposed as the appropriate CFT construct to describe strongly coupled CFTs possessing holographic gravity duals. Little is known about interacting BCFT n-point functions. Our investigation will reveal new general features of BCFT entanglement measures at strong coupling.

A deep physical interpretation of the BCFT system has in recent months been at the epicentre of one of the most important advances in theoretical physics made in recent times (Nov 2019):
Holographic duality relates a BCFT to the same CFT propagating in the near horizon geometry of a black hole dual to the boundary degrees of freedom. Thus BCFT measures of entanglement get related to quantum entanglement entropies of subsets of Hawking radiation emitted by the black hole!

The transition between the two regimes of BCFT correlators is precisely what resolves the celebrated information loss paradox for black holes posed by Hawking. In the gravity picture the transition is between the usual black hole geometry and a new semiclassical wormhole saddle-point.

Remarkably, the wormhole geometry identifies the black hole interior with the Hawking radiation outside and reproduces the celebrated “Page curve” for the entanglement entropy of Hawking radiation required by unitarity of Quantum Mechanics.

Our goal is to understand how the black hole interior degrees of freedom are encoded in the Hawking radiation. We can extract this from strongly coupled bCFT correlators modelled by generalised free fields. We will also compare and contrast these fine-grained correlations against our previous results for weakly coupled CFTs propagating in the black hole background.

The question raised above is perhaps the single most pressing one in the effort to pick apart the complexity of the quantum state of the Hawking radiation emitted by a black hole and how universal its detailed properties are.

The inclusion of wormhole saddles in the gravitational partition function, instrumental in resolving the information loss paradox, leads to a beautiful interpretation of the gravitational description of the system: it is a sum of partition functions of the so-called 2d JT gravity defined over surfaces of arbitrary genus and arbitrary number of boundaries. Remarkably these correspond to the genus expansion of certain matrix integrals. It remains a fascinating question to understand how such a genus expansion is encoded in BCFT correlators, one which we expect to be able to attack in the final stages of the project.

The questions we plan to address are topical and yet largely unexplored. The Swansea team consists of world leading experts (TJH, DT, SPK ) in holography, string theory and QFT (BL) and has already produced publications in closely related directions and continues to pursue this research vigorously.

Who applies: Canadian institutions

NOTE: Only Canadian institutions can submit applications on behalf of candidates. They may choose to set their own internal deadline to receive supporting documentation.

Description: The Canada-ASEAN Scholarships and Educational Exchanges for Development (SEED) program provides students, from member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), with short-term exchange opportunities for study or research in Canadian post-secondary institutions at the college, undergraduate and graduate levels.

Guidelines

The Canada-ASEAN Scholarships and Educational Exchanges for Development (SEED) program aims to reduce poverty in the developing countries of ASEAN and to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Scholarships and educational exchanges will contribute towards all Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including Goal 5 (Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls) through, for example, women’s studies, political science, anthropology, and economics; and Goal 13 (Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts) through, for example, environmental sciences/policy examining climate change mitigation and adaptation, energy, peatlands and other land use effects and strategies, and forestry.

SEED scholarships are facilitated through institutional collaborations and student exchange agreements between Canadian and ASEAN institutions. These agreements are created between colleges, technical or vocational institutions and universities. Students, hereby referred to as “candidates”, must be registered as full-time students in their home institution at the time of application and during the entire duration of their study or research stay in Canada.

Canadian post-secondary institutions

Canadian institutions are:

• responsible for submitting applications on behalf of eligible candidates from post-secondary institutions in ASEAN; and
• encouraged to promote this scholarship opportunity to faculty and staff members, as well as to partner institutions in ASEAN.

Canadian institutions with successful candidates:

• should identify a single person responsible for the administration of the contribution agreement and another person with delegated signing authority; and
• will receive contribution funding from Global Affairs Canada (legally referred to as the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development, or DFATD) to disburse as scholarships to recipients.

Southeast Asian candidates

Candidates interested in this scholarship program should contact their home institution to:

• make their interest known;
• find out if there is an existing institutional collaboration and student exchange agreement with a Canadian institution; and
• request information about the application process and selection criteria specific to the Canadian institution and provide any additional information, such as transcripts, language test results, a research project and a registration form for an exchange program.

Selected candidates are encouraged to:

• ensure that they fulfill the requirements of the Canadian institution including academic requirements, language proficiency and, if applicable, institutional student exchange program requirements;
• submit their visa application as early as possible and follow the procedures as outlined by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (generally a study permit is required for course work and a work permit is required for research);
• initiate the process for the transfer of credits to their home institution as soon as their Canadian courses have been identified; and
• contact alumni of the program through their home institution for advice and a local perspective on the scholarship experience.

Post-secondary institutions in ASEAN countries

Post-secondary institutions in ASEAN countries are encouraged to:

• promote this scholarship opportunity through their international offices;
• identify strong academic candidates who meet the admission requirements for the Canadian partner institution;
• provide the candidates’ documents to the Canadian partner institution, which is responsible for submitting the scholarship applications; and
• propose to selected candidates to gain additional linguistic training, academic upgrading and cultural preparedness before their departure.

Scholarship value and duration

Funding for SEED scholarships is made available by Global Affairs Canada through its legal title: the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD).

The Canadian institution will receive funding from DFATD for all successful candidates in the form of a contribution agreement and will be responsible for providing the funds to scholarship recipients.

The scholarship value varies depending on the duration and level of study. The scholarship value for students is:

• CAD 10,200 for college, undergraduate or graduate students (Master’s and PhD) for a minimum of four months or one academic term of study or research;
• CAD 12,700 for graduate students (Master’s and PhD) for a period of five to six months of study or research; or
• CAD 15,900 for undergraduate and college students for a period of eight months or two academic terms of study or research.

In addition to the funds allocated to the recipients by DFATD, the Canadian host institution may also claim CAD 500 per scholarship recipient to assist with administrative costs once the scholarship recipient arrives in Canada.

Eligible expenses

Canadian institutions will disburse scholarship funds to the scholarship recipient to contribute to the following costs:

• visa and/or study/work permit fees;
• round-trip airfare for the scholarship recipient only (from an ASEAN member state to Canada and return upon completion of the scholarship) via the most direct and economical route;
• health insurance;
• living expenses, such as accommodation, utilities and food;
• ground transportation expenses, including a public transportation pass; and
• books and supplies required for the recipient’s study or research, excluding computers and other equipment.

Payment procedure

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Contribution Agreement, funding will be disbursed by direct deposit to the Canadian institution upon receiving the following documents:

• the Contribution Agreement signed by both the designated authority at the Canadian institution and the designated authority at DFATD; and
