数学史课程预告 | Quantum field theory: from physical concepts to math

主讲人介绍

Nicolai Reshetikhin is a mathematical physicist working at the interface of quantum field theory, representation theory and geometry.


摘要

The talk will focused on how quantum field theory emerged as a physical theory and on how mathematical methods were evolving. This was a mutually stimulating process. Physics got a magnificent variety of mathematical tools. Mathematics got many new concepts either emerged from physics or motivated by physics.
