Joint High Energy Physics Seminars: "A Duality Web in 2 + 1 Dimensions and the Unity of Physics"

Date: 
Tue, 08/11/201610:30-11:30
Location: 
White Dove Conference Hall at Neve-Shalom
Lecturer: Prof. Nati Seiberg
Affiliation: Institute for Advanced Study (IAS)
Abstract:
A combination of ideas originating from
Condensed Matter physics, Supersymmetric
Field Theory, and AdS/CFT has led to a detailed
web of conjectured dualities. These relate the
long distance behavior of different short
distance theories. These dualities clarify a large
number of confusing and controversial issues
in Condensed Matter physics and in the study
of 2+1 dimensional quantum field theory.
