Geometry and String Theory Seminar: Scattering amplitudes and the positive Grassmannian by Nima Arkani-Hamed (via video) (IAS) in RLM 8.136
We will watch a VIDEO of a lecture given last May. It is an overview of our topic for the semester, which is exciting ongoing work applying various topics in geometry and combinatorics (twistor spaces, positive Grassmannians, cluster varieties, ...) to the computation of scattering amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory. Notice the room change from last semester! Submitted by
