  • Hints of Flat Space Holography

    CMSA Room G10 CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    Member Seminar Speaker: Dan Kapec Title: Hints of Flat Space Holography Abstract: Despite our detailed understanding of holography in Anti-de Sitter space, flat space holography remains somewhat mysterious. “Celestial CFT” is a […]

    Member Seminar Speaker: Barak Weiss   Title: New bounds on lattice covering volumes, and nearly uniform covers Abstract: Let L be a lattice in R^n and let K be a convex body. […]

  • Categorical Symmetry of the Standard Model from Gravitational Anomaly 

    CMSA Room G10 CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    Member Seminar Speaker: Juven Wang Title: Categorical Symmetry of the Standard Model from Gravitational Anomaly Abstract: In the Standard Model, the total "sterile right-handed" neutrino number n_{νR} is not equal to […]

  • Randomized algorithms in combinatorics

    CMSA Room G10 CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States
