During 2024–25, the CMSA will host a seminar on Quantum Field Theory and Physical Mathematics, organized by Ahsan Khan, Robert Moscrop, and Sunghyuk Park.
This seminar series, a successor to the Quantum Matter Seminar, focuses on all aspects of quantum field theory and its associated mathematics.
The seminar will take place on Fridays at 9:00–10:30 am (Eastern Time) through October. In November, seminars will be held from 10:00–11:30 am. To learn how to attend this seminar, please fill out this form.
The schedule will be updated as talks are confirmed.
