  报告摘要:In this talk I will describe a phenomenon akin to Electric-Magnetic duality in Einstein's gravity. I will show that a new type of "magnetic" dual gravitational charges generate redundant symmetry transformations which are not part of the standard group of diffeomorphisms. The new gauge symmetry of the metric reveals, in turn, a wide class of IR phenomena including: monopole solutions, double copy structure of scattering amplitudes and more.

  Dr. Uri Kol obtained his PhD from the University of Tel Aviv, Israel in 2014, has been a postdoc at the University of Michigan, USA and is now a postdoc at New York University, USA. Uri's research is focused on gravity, symmetries of gravitational theories, holography, and entanglement entropy. He has published more than 10 papers in Journal of High Energy Physics and Physical Review D, with over 350 citations in total.
