Symmetry Colloquia - Global Categorical Symmetries May 2, 2024 Location: Room G-10, CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge MA 02138 Speaker: Clay Còrdova, University of Chicago Title: Particle-Soliton Degeneracies from Spontaneously Broken Non-Invertible Symmetry Abstract: We study non-invertible topological symmetry operators in massive quantum field theories in (1+1) dimensions. In phases where this symmetry is spontaneously broken […]
Symmetry Colloquia - Global Categorical Symmetries May 2, 2024 Location: Room G-10, CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge MA 02138 Speaker: Thomas Dumitrescu, UCLA Title: Symmetries, Invertible Field Theories, and Gauge Theory Phases Abstract: I will start with a brief overview of gauge theory phases in 3+1 dimensions through the lens of higher symmetries — in particular the realization […]
Symmetry Colloquia - Global Categorical Symmetries May 2, 2024 Location: Room G-10, CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge MA 02138 Speaker: Theo Johnson-Freyd, Dalhousie University and Perimeter Institute Title: The Universal Target Category Abstract: Hilbert's Nullstellensatz says that the complex numbers C satisfy a universal property among all R-algebras: every not-too-large nonzero commutative R-algebra maps to C. Deligne proved a similar statement […]
Amplituhedra, Cluster Algebras, and Positive Geometry Dates: May 29-31, 2024 Location: Harvard CMSA, 20 Garden Street, Cambridge MA 02138 & via Zoom In recent years, a remarkable paradigm shift has occurred in understanding quantum observables in particle physics and cosmology, revealing their emergence from underlying novel mathematical objects known as positive geometries. The conference will […]
