The effect of level truncation in TCSA
๐Ÿ“ London
Gerard Watts (KCL)
Venue: KCL ยท Room: 436 ยท Time: 15:00 ยท Type: Informal Seminar
Abstract:
The truncated conformal space approach is a very useful tool in the
numerical study of renormalisation group flows. I will discuss how one can
study the effect of truncation in a standard RG manner and its relevance
for studying perturbative fixed points.

Nonperturbative effects in the BMN limit
Aninda Sinha (Cambridge)
Venue: QMW ยท Room: 112 ยท Time: 14:00 ยท Type: Regular Seminar
Noncentral extension of AdS superalgebra
Jeong-Hyuck Park (IHES-Paris)
Venue: IC ยท Room: H503 ยท Time: 16:00 ยท Type: Regular Seminar
Abstract:
Four dimensional N=4 super Yang-Mills theory contains a bigger superalgebra than AdS or superconformal algebra, su(2,2/4). It corresponds to a noncentral extension of the latter. The talk is for both physicsts and mathematicans
interested in a novel way of obtaining noncentral extensions of Lie algebras.
