Out on arXiv!! arxiv.org/abs/2609.19904 Super excited about this one. Learnt a lot. We can now write down conformal blocks and exact braiding matrix for *any* RCFT 4pt function, as long as we know its decomposition wrt Virasoro minimal models. Extension to KM RCFTs soon...

It's blood-boiling how there's evidence of systemic voter manipulation and electoral fraud but the propaganda is still running strong since all the "indep" institutions of this nation have been heavily compromised. I hope we see a revolution again and throw this fascist govt out.
In 2023, Assistant Professor @sabya_economist of Ashoka University authored a working paper titled “Democratic Backsliding in the World’s Largest Democracy” that scrutinized data from the 2019 Lok Sabha elections and suggested patterns consistent with electoral manipulation by the ruling BJP. The study highlighted two key areas: •Voter registration manipulation, including targeted deletion of Muslim voters from electoral rolls. •Turnout/counting irregularities, such as discrepancies in EVM vote tallies and unusually high turnout skewed toward the BJP in closely contested constituencies . Das noted these patterns were not definitive proof of fraud but were “consistent with” manipulation and recommended further detailed investigation . The paper sparked a heated debate: some academics, like Yogendra Yadav, praised its empirical rigor, while others raised concerns about the strength of the evidence and whether such patterns could be explained by other factors like better voter mobilization . The backlash was immediate. Ashoka University distanced itself from the research, emphasizing it was an unpublished working paper and did not reflect institutional views . Shortly thereafter, Das resigned (or was effectively compelled to leave) the university amid controversy. But i always believed he was right all along ! For those of you intellectually bent to read mathematics and data, research paper link in comment.

Henkel's book on cft and critical pheno is so beautifully written. The first chapter on spin models is exceptional and i hope to understand it like the back of my hand before I complete my phd. link.springer.com/book/10.10…

It's so easy to make any kind of profound and deep messages from day-to-day activities. One could alternatively say: "A fancy modern house and a basic house are both built from the same bricks."

it's scary how accurate this is holy hell
physicists when writing papers: We take the product of the Frobenius norm of the Jacobian matrix with the Hessian determinant physicists when teaching in class: multiply this guy with this guy

In contrast to many of my colleagues I‘m strongly opposed to building a new collider. We should build two.
