RegistrationCourse DescriptionThere are two different approaches to Quantum Field Theory. First one was started by Dirac and finally formalized by Segal : space-time is considered as a smooth manifold but physics is new, Quantum field theory is just a symmetric monoidal functor from geometrically equipped cobordisms to linear algebra. There is no Plank constant in Dirac-Segal approach. Second w...
Abstract:First part of the talk is introduction to Hamiltonian integrability. In the second part of the talk their quantum counterparts will be introduced with some examples. Important class of examples is related to moduli spaces of connections over surfaces.About Speaker:Nicolai Yuryevich Reshetikhin is a mathematical physicist at Yau Mathematical Sciences Center, Tsinghua University. His res...
