Mathematical Physics and Algebraic Geometry Speaker: Justin Kulp (Simons Center for Geometry and Physics) Title: Twisted Tools for (Untwisted) Quantum Field Theory Abstract: One of the most important properties of QFTs is that they can be deformed by "turning on interactions." Essentially every observable can be viewed as coupling the theory to some external system. Famously, adding […]

Abstract: The last years have seen remarkable advances in what AI can do. It is perhaps surprising that […]

Member Seminar Speaker: Iacopo Brivio (CMSA) Title: Abundance for mixed characteristic threefolds Abstract: The Minimal Model Program (MMP) predicts that every algebraic variety X is birational to either a fibration in Fano varieties, or it admits a “minimal model” X', that is a birational model with nef canonical bundle K_X'. The Abundance conjecture predicts then […]
Freedman CMSA Seminar 2:00-3:30 pm ET Speaker: Mike Freedman, Harvard CMSA Title: Detecting hidden structures in linear maps Abstract: I'll consider the problem of detecting spectral features and tensor structures within linear maps both in a quantum and classical contexts. In the quantum context there is the question of whether a Hamiltonian is local, […]
Joint BHI/CMSA Foundation Seminar Speaker: Matthew Dodelson (Harvard) Title: Ringdown in the SYK model Abstract: Thermal correlators in large N systems equilibrate at late times, but the precise late-time behavior is unknown away from holographic and free field limits. In this talk I will analyze this problem in the case of the SYK model away from […]

Colloquium Speaker: Pavel Etingof (MIT) Title: Periodic pencils of flat connections and their p-curvature A periodic pencil of flat connections on a smooth algebraic variety is a linear family of flat connections , where are local coordinates on and are matrix-valued regular functions. A pencil is periodic if it is generically invariant under the shifts up to isomorphism. I will […]
