来源: 05-15

时间:2023年5月15日 (周一) 19:20-20:55

地点:西阶梯教室 线上直播:B站(THU求真书院)

主讲人:Nicolai Reshetikhin

Speaker

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


Abstract

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.

  • Modern Mathematics Lecture Series Representation theory and a little bit of quantum field theory

    Abstract:One of the central foci of representation theory in the 20th century was the representation theory of Lie algebras, starting with finite dimensional algebras and expanding to a rich, but still mysterious infinite dimensional theory. In this century, we realized that this was only one special case of a bigger theory, with new sources of interesting non-commutative algebras whose repres...
