SUMMARY:Categorical 't Hooft expansion and Chiral Algebras
DESCRIPTION:Quantum Field Theory and Physical Mathematics Seminar \nSpeaker: Adrian López-Raven\, Perimeter \nTitle: Categorical ‘t Hooft expansion and Chiral Algebras \nAbstract: In https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.00760\, we show how holographic dual B-model backgrounds can be systematically derived from the ‘t Hooft expansion of specific families of chiral algebras. The resulting holographic dual backgrounds are typically non-commutative and appear to be novel. In this talk I’ll review certain aspects of our construction. In particular\, we’ll review how to build a category of D-branes for the String Theory dual\, starting from the planar limit of the chiral algebra. Given its generality\, I’ll emphasize the potential utility of the construction in the study of weak coupling holography for general theories with a large N limit. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Math Science Lectures in Honor of Raoul Bott | Dennis Gaitsgory\, MPIM | Function-theoretic implications of geometric Langlands
DESCRIPTION:Two talks on Function-theoretic implications of geometric Langlands\nDates: October 20 & 21\, 2025 \nTime: 4:30–5:30 pm \nLocation: Science Center Lecture Hall A and via Webinar \n  \nSpeaker: Dennis Gaitsgory\, Max Planck Institute for Mathematics \nAbstract: The recently established geometric Langlands equivalence implies an explicit description of the space of (unramified) automorphic functions in terms of Langlands parameters. In these lectures\, we will derive these description and explain how far we can go with it in order to deduce some expected properties of automorphic functions\, e.g.\, Ramanujan and Arthur multiplicity conjectures. This is joint work with Vincent Lafforgue and Sam Raskin. \n  \nLecture 1: Monday\, October 20\, 2025\nFrom geometric to classical Langlands \n \n  \nLecture 2: Tuesday\, October 21\, 2025\nAnalytic properties of automorphic functions as seen from algebraic geometry \n \n  \n\nHarvard Mathematics Professor Raoul Bott (1923 – 2005)\, was a Hungarian-American mathematician known for numerous foundational contributions to geometry in its broad sense. He is best known for his Bott periodicity theorem\, the Morse–Bott functions which he used in this context\, and the Borel–Bott–Weil theorem.
