A Topologically Massive Double Copy in 3D Gravity and Gauge Theories
Offered By: Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies DIAS via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the intriguing connection between gravity and gauge theories in this 1-hour 22-minute lecture presented by Mariana Carrillo González at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. Delve into the concept of the "double copy" relation, which allows for the derivation of gravitational amplitudes from gauge theory ones. Examine the extension of this principle to massive mediators, with a particular focus on topologically massive theories in three dimensions. Discover various scenarios demonstrating the robustness of this double copy relation, including classical realizations and a derivation from minitwistor space. Gain insights into the ongoing exploration of the double copy's applicability and its broader implications in theoretical physics.
