String Theory, Symmetries and Anomalies in QFTs - Lecture 4
Offered By: Institut des Hautes Etudes Scientifiques (IHES) via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the intricate connections between string theory, symmetries, and anomalies in this advanced physics lecture. Delve into a modern perspective on anomalies in d-dimensional quantum field theories, examining their representation through d+1 dimensional anomaly theory. Investigate how symmetries can be described using a related d+1 dimensional topological field theory, known as SymTFT. Uncover the origins of these d+1 theories within the framework of string theory. Gain insights from Inaki Garcia Etxebarria of Durham University as he guides you through these complex concepts in theoretical physics.
