Condensed Thoughts - Topological Field Theories and Condensation
Offered By: M-Seminar, Kansas State University via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the concept of condensation in Topological Field Theories through this M-Seminar talk by Constantin Teleman from UC Berkeley. Delve into the growing importance of Topological Field Theories in controlling extended topological operators in Quantum Field Theory. Examine the path towards a precise construction of condensation and its relationship to connectivity in Topological Quantum Field Theories derived from homotopy types. Learn about the collaborative efforts involving Dan Freed and Mike Hopkins, influenced by discussions within the Simons Collaboration on Categorical Symmetries. Gain insights into this complex topic through Teleman's condensed thoughts presented over the course of an hour-long lecture at Kansas State University.
