Notes on Melonic SO-N Tensor Models by Shiraz Minwalla

Explore a 55-minute lecture from the Bangalore Area Strings Meeting 2017 on Melonic SO(N)^q Tensor models. Delve into topics such as SYK theory, its large N limit, dynamics, and UV Lagrangian. Examine general theorems, Schwarz action, and the theory's spectrum. Investigate effective potential minimization, phase transitions, and the microcanonical ensemble. Gain insights from Shiraz Minwalla's presentation at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, concluding with a Q&A session.
