There has been a remarkable increase in work at the interface of computer science and game theory in the past decade. In this article I survey some of the main themes of work in the area, with a focus on the work in computer science. Given…
We introduce the key ideas behind the group field theory approach to quantum gravity, and the basic elements of its formalism. We also briefly report on some recent results obtained in this approach, concerning both the mathematical…
In this lecture, I summarize developments presented at the Lepton Photon 2011 conference and give my perspective on the current situation in high-energy physics.
In this preface to the Journal of Physics A, Special Edition on Random Matrix Theory, we give a review of the main historical developments of random matrix theory. A short summary of the papers that appear in this special edition is also…
These notes present some elements of causality theory. While they are not as complete as other treatments of the topic, there is some originality in that the whole approach is based on a definition of causal curves which allows to simplify…
I summarize the theory talks presented at the 50 year anniversary conference. The talks covered a wide range of topics, but common threads included next-to-next-to-leading order predictions for many 2 -> 2 processes, beyond QCD lattice…
In this talk, I address some recent developments in chiral perturbation theory at unphysical and physical quark masses.
This article contains a concise review of the theory of inflation. We discuss its main theoretical aspects as well as its observational predictions. We also explain how the most recent astrophysical observations constrain the inflationary…
We give a brief introduction to the notion of an 'approximate group' and some of its numerous applications.
A brief introduction to the low-energy effective field theory of the standard model, chiral perturbation theory, is presented.
This is a rendering of a review talk on the state of String Theory, given at the EPS-2003 Conference, intended for a wide audience of experimental and theoretical physicists. It emphasizes general ideas rather than technical aspects.
An overview of recent theoretical progress on Non-Relativistic QCD and related effective theories is provided.
An introduction to the basic ideas and methods of Chiral Perturbation Theory is presented. Several phenomenological applications of the effective Lagrangian technique to strong, electromagnetic and weak interactions are discussed.
Some recent developments in the theory of quantum spin systems are reviewed.
These are notes from a 15 week course aimed at graduate mathematicians. They provide an essentially self-contained introduction to some of the ideas and terminology of QFT.
Talk given at the XLVIII Rencontres de Moriond, Electroweak Interactions and Unified Theories, La Thuile, Italy, 2-9 March 2013, to appear in the Proceedings.
Some general comments are made on the evolution of this series of workshops and on some features of this particular Workshop without attempting to summarize all the talks presented.
The goal of this short article is to summarize some of the recent developments in the quiver Yangians and crystal meltings. This article is based on a lecture delivered by the author at International Congress on Mathematical Physics (ICMP),…
This is a survey of results on random group presentations, and on random subgroups of certain fixed groups. Being a survey, this paper does not contain new results, but it offers a synthetic view of a part of this very active field of…
This is a survey on spectral theory of dynamical systems.
