[hep-th] Seminar grupe za gravitaciju, cestice i polja, 24. februar 2023

[Marija Dimitrijevic Ciric]

Zdravo svima,

evo najave poslednjeg predavanja u okviru mini kursa o kategorijama. 
Marko Vojinovic (Institut za fiziku) ce svoje sesto predavanje odrzati u 
petak 24. februara.

Naslov:  Introduction to category theory and n-groups (part 6)

Asptrakt: In the final lecture of the series, we will present a theorem 
relating a 2-group, a path 2-groupoid, a 2-connection and a principal 
2-bundle. This theorem generalizes some concepts of differential 
geometry, specifically the notion of parallel transport and holonomy, by 
introducing the so-called surface parallel transport and surface 
holonomy. Such a generalization represents a new tool to build gauge 
theories in physics, and has direct applications for the constructions 
of models of quantum gravity.

The lectures are based on material from papers arXiv:q-alg/9705009 and 
arXiv:1003.4485.


Seminar pocinje u 11:15 uzivo na Fizickom fakultetu u sali 665.


Pozdrav!

Marija
