Are you passionate about equality, diversity and inclusion? Are you keen to make real positive change within MPLS and the University?
We are now inviting expressions of interest for our next cohort of MPLS ED&I Fellows. If you (or anyone you know) are passionate about ED&I and want to make positive change within our University, this could be for you.
One of the most important questions in theoretical physics is finding a theory of quantum gravity, which could help us address fundamental questions about our world, related to what is inside a black hole, or what is the origin of the universe. Several approaches have been developed over the past decades to tackle this problem, with string theory being a leading candidate due to its potential to unify the laws of physics.

On the (Local) Lifting Property
Abstract
The (Local) Lifting Property ((L)LP) is introduced by Kirchberg and deals with lifting completely positive maps. We will discuss various examples, characterizations, and closure properties of the (L)LP and, if time permits, connections with some other lifting properties of C*-algebras. Joint work with Dominic Enders.
