Skein traces and curve counting

Science Center Hall E 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

Geometry and Quantum Theory Seminar Speaker: Sunghyuk Park, Harvard CMSA Title: Skein traces and curve counting Abstract: Skein modules are vector space-valued invariants of 3-manifolds describing the space of line defects modulo skein relations (determined by a choice of a ribbon category). When the 3-manifold is S x I for some surface S, the skein […]

Dolbeault Virasoro algebra and M5 branes

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

Quantum Field Theory and Physical Mathematics Seminar Speaker: Brian Williams, Boston University Title: Dolbeault Virasoro algebra and M5 branes Abstract: The worldvolume theory on a stack of M5 branes in M-theory is superconformal. We propose a conjecture that in the holomorphic twist of the theory on a stack of M5 branes an infinite-dimensional enhancement of […]

Scattering Amplitude from a Twistor Point of View

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

Member Seminar Speaker: Keyou Zeng Title: Scattering Amplitude from a Twistor Point of View Abstract: Scattering amplitude is a key quantity in quantum field theory. Although challenging to compute at higher loops and for large particle numbers, physicists have developed various tools to gain a deeper understanding of amplitudes. In this seminar, I will introduce […]

Gravitational collapse to extremal Reissner-Nordström and the third law of black hole thermodynamics

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

General Relativity Seminar Speaker: Christoph Kehle, MIT Title: Gravitational collapse to extremal Reissner-Nordström and the third law of black hole thermodynamics Abstract: In this talk, I will present a proof that extremal Reissner-Nordström black holes can form in finite time in gravitational collapse of charged matter. In particular, this construction provides a definitive disproof of […]
