On the classification of quantum lens spaces

Sophie Zegers
(TU Delft)
Abstract
In the study of noncommutative geometry, various of classical spaces have been given a quantum analogue. A class of examples are the quantum lens spaces described by Hong and Szymański as graph C*-algebras. The graph C*-algebraic description has made it possible to obtain important information about their structure and to work on classification. Moreover, every quantum lens space comes with a natural circle action, leading to an equivariant isomorphisms problem.
In this talk, Sophie Zegers will give an introduction on how to classify quantum lens spaces and how to obtain a number theoretic invariant in low dimensions and will briefly present some results from joint work with Søren Eilers on the equivariant isomorphism problem of low dimensional quantum lens spaces.

An N=4 SYM Collider at Finite Rank and Finite Coupling

Robin Karlsson
(Oxford )
Abstract

Energy correlations characterise the energy flux through detectors at infinity produced in a collision event. In CFTs, these detectors are examples of light-ray operators and, in particular, the stress tensor operator integrated over future null infinity. In N=4 SU(N_c) SYM, we combine perturbation theory, holography, integrability, supersymmetric localisation, and modern conformal bootstrap techniques to obtain predictions for such a collider experiment at finite coupling, both at finite number of colours, and in the planar limit. In QCD, the coupling runs with the angle between detectors, and there is a transition from perturbative to non-perturbative QCD. In N=4 SYM, a similar transition occurs when the coupling is varied, which we explore quantitatively. I will describe the physics underlying this observable and some of the methods used, particularly in regimes with analytical control.
