Abstract:
In 1997 Maldacena proposed a remarkable equivalence between quantum gravity and gauge theory. Since then this `holographic' duality has had a profound impact on many areas of physics. In this talk I will attempt to give a gentle introduction to the basics of the duality as well as a tour of its successes and applications. I will also touch on some recent advances and generalizations.
The seminar will be held in the Dvořák hall, FZU, Pod Vodárenskou věží 1, Prague.
