Tilting the Cusp Anomalous Dimension in Planar N=4 SYM - Lance Dixon
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a comprehensive lecture on tilting the cusp anomalous dimension in planar N=4 SYM, delivered by Lance Dixon from SLAC at the Talking Integrability: Spins, Fields, and Strings conference. Delve into topics such as solving planar N=4 SYM scattering, the "Origin" proposal, removing divergences, and dual conformal invariance. Examine the mysterious octagon connection, weak coupling expansion, and the 8-point origin universe. Gain insights into checks of the master formula and its inspiration from strong coupling. Recorded at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this 59-minute talk offers a deep dive into recent advances in integrable models across mathematical physics, condensed-matter physics, and string theory.
