Indices from the Gravitational Path Integral - Victor Luca Iliesiu (Stanford)
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 46-minute conference talk on "Indices from the gravitational path integral" presented by Victor Luca Iliesiu from Stanford University. Delivered as part of the "Gravity from algebra: modern field theory methods for holography" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP), this presentation delves into cutting-edge research in conformal field theory (CFT) and its applications to holography and quantum gravity. Gain insights into topics such as the conformal bootstrap program, consistency conditions in quantum gravity, and their relationship to string/M-theory. Discover how modern CFT techniques are being applied to understand holographic duality, large N bootstrap, gravitational effective field theory, and the structure of holographic CFTs dual to general relativity. Learn about the conference's exploration of low-dimensional holography, modularity, quantum chaos, and the connection between S-matrices and CFT correlators in the context of holography beyond Anti-de Sitter space.
