Date

Location

A719, Lab 3

Description

Quantum Gravity Unit (Neiman Unit) would like to invite you to a seminar by Soumangsu Chakraborty from Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Title: ""JTbar deformed CFT2 and string theory""

Abstract:
I'm going to talk about two dimensional conformal field theory with a left-moving conserved current J, perturbed by an irrelevant, Lorentz symmetry breaking operator with the quantum numbers of JTbar, using a combination of field and string theoretic techniques. I'll show that the spectrum of the theory has some interesting features, which may shed light on systems of interest for holography and black hole physics.
