Title: Replica Wormholes and the Entropy of Hawking Radiation

Abstract :We are going to discuss the recent paper by Ahmed Almheiri, Thomas Hartman, Juan Maldacena, Edgar Shaghoulian and Amirhossein Tajdini  "Replica Wormholes and the Entropy of Hawking Radiation" 

"Uniaxial-strain Control of Nematic Superconductivity in SrxBi2Se3" by Dr. Ivan Kostylev, Kyoto University

Title: Batalin-Vilkoviski formalism and applications.

Abstract : I am going to rewiev the Batalin-Vilkoviski (BV) formalinsm and discuaa some applications of it. The releveant papers are: classical paper on BV by A. Schwarz  "Geometry of Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization" and the paper by Gorodentsev, Krotov and Losev "Quantum Field Theory as Effective BV Theory from Chern-Simons".
