• 1619 - Factorization Algebras and Functorial Field Theories 

      [OWR-2016-25] Workshop Report 2016,25 (2016) - (08 May - 14 May 2016)
      Factorization algebras are a new mathematical approach to quantum field theory. They are related to functorial field theories, another approach to quantum field theory. Factorization algebras also figure in current research ...

      [OWR-2016-36] Workshop Report 2016,36 (2016) - (24 Jul - 30 Jul 2016)
      This workshop has focused on three areas in mathematical quantum field theory and their interrelations: 1) conformal field theory, 2) constructions of interacting models of quantum field theory by various methods, and 3) ...
    • 1621 - The Renormalization Group 

      [OWR-2016-26] Workshop Report 2016,26 (2016) - (22 May - 28 May 2016)
      The renormalization group was originally introduced as a multiscale approach to quantum field theory and the theory of critical phenomena, explaining in particular the universality observed e.g. in critical exponents. Since ...
    • 1607a - Topological Recursion and TQFTs 

      [OWR-2016-9] Workshop Report 2016,9 (2016) - (14 Feb - 20 Feb 2016)
      The topological recursion is an ubiquitous structure in enumerative geometry of surfaces and topological quantum field theories. Since its invention in the context of matrix models, it has been found or conjectured to ...
