Knot homologies, BPS states, and SUSY gauge theories

Organized by Sergei Gukov, Mikhail Khovanov, and Piotr Sulkowski March 16 – June 12, 2015 The aim of this program is to understand new relations between knot theory, supersymmetric field theories, and string theory. Tremendous development in knot theory in recent decades led to the formulation of polynomial knot invariants, such as the Jones polynomial … Read more

Seminar Series: Mathematics and Physics of Calogero-Moser-Sutherland systems.

Organized by: Nikita Nekrasov, Alexander Turbiner and Alexander Abanov.   Abstract: Calogero-Moser-Sutherland many-body systems arose originally in the 1970’s simultaneously in Nuclear Physics, Mathematical Physics and Solid State Physics. Since then they were found in some incarnations in diverse branches of physics and mathematics such as the theory of quantum Hall effect, Yang-Mills and Chern-Simons … Read more

Integrability vs. non-integrability in statistical mechanics: March 2 – 6, 2015

Organized by Tetsuo Deguchi, Anthony Guttman, Jean-Michel Maillet, Barry McCoy, and Alexander Zamolodchikov Dates: March 2 – 6, 2015 There is a fundamental paradox in statistical mechanics that we do exact computations on systems with very special symmetry properties and then apply the intuition gained to generic systems which do not have these symmetries. We … Read more
