Abstract Nonsense in Generalized Symmetries: (De-)Equivariantization and Gauging

Yuhan Gai
Abstract

I will introduce basic concepts from category theory that are relevant to the study of generalized symmetries. Then, I will focus on constructions known as equivariantization and de-equivariantization, which allow one to move between categories with a group G-action and those with a Rep(G)-action. I will also discuss their relation to the concept of gauging, if time permits.

 

Junior Strings is a seminar series where DPhil students present topics of common interest that do not necessarily overlap with their own research area. This is primarily aimed at PhD students and post-docs but everyone is welcome.

The Mathematics of Wound Healing - Tanniemola Liverpool

Tanniemola Liverpool
(University of Bristol)
Further Information

Wound healing is a highly conserved process required for survival of an animal after tissue damage. Tannie will describe how we are beginning to use a combination of mathematics, physics and biology to disentangle some of the organising principles behind the complex orchestrated dynamics that lead to wound healing.

Tanniemola Liverpool is a Professor in the Applied Mathematics Institute of the School of Mathematics at Bristol.

Please email @email to register to attend in person.

The lecture will be broadcast on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel on Wednesday 12 March at 5-6pm and any time after (no need to register for the online version).

The Oxford Mathematics Public Lectures are generously supported by XTX Markets.
