Vortrag
Path integrals via algebraic topology?
Prof. Dr. Peter Teichner (MPI Bonn)
5.2.2013, 15:45 Uhr – 16:45 Uhr

We'll discuss the structural analogies between path integrals and push-forwards in certain generalized cohomology theories. As a consequence, we propose a new way of rigorously defining the 2-dimensional super symmetric Sigma model, at least up to deformation.
This is a report on joint work with Stephan Stolz.
