SUMMARY:Gauge Theories from the 11th Dimension - Prof. Neil Lambert (KCL)
DTSTART:20260312T190000Z

CONTACT:Ruize Li
DESCRIPTION:String and M-Theory provides a remarkable framework in which b
 oth particle physics and gravity appear in quantum mechanical and mathemat
 ically consistent way\, albeit  in ten and eleven dimensions respectively
 . Although they don’t currently lead to compelling experimental predicti
 ons they do have rich implications for Mathematics and Physics in a variet
 y of other settings. In this talk I will discuss what motivates String The
 ory and  M-theory\, the role of extended objects known as branes\,  and 
 how this leads to novel\, non-gravitational\, quantum theories in three an
 d six dimensions.
