DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Francesco Sciotti (IFAE)\n\nAbstract\nIs nature defi
 ned by a few fundamental principles? How much can consistency requirements
  alone carve out a physical theory? The bootstrap program takes these ques
 tions literally: rather than building amplitudes from a Lagrangian\, it as
 ks which theories are even allowed to exist once unitarity\, causality\, a
 nd symmetry are imposed\, and lets the physics fall out as a consequence. 
 This thesis applies this logic to two different physical setups. The first
  is large-Nc QCD\, where consistency sharpens what the low-energy theory o
 f pions is permitted to look like. The second is quantum gravity\, where t
 he same demands prove remarkably rigid\, pinning down which amplitudes can
  exist at all\, and dictating the spectrum a consistent theory is forced t
 o contain.\n \nSupervisors:Zoom link\n \n\nhttps://indico.ifae.es/event/
