More Seminars

Starting tomorrow we have the new Interdisciplinary Seminar in Fundamental Physics here in the Comlab. Term time really is busy. There is also a regular OASIS seminar, a twistor seminar, a string seminar, a theory seminar, a QFT seminar, philosophy seminars and many more!

Today we heard a very interesting talk from Boris Zilber, a logician, involving something like a Combescure $R$ matrix for time evolution, and yesterday Fay Dowker spoke about the causal sets multiple history interpretation of quantum mechanics.

You're welcome, Louise. Unfortunately, I still meet many people who think the Dark Force rules the universe.

Very nice. Are you going to post the slides for your Polytopes for Veneziano Amplitudes talk?

Hi kneemo. Not sure. Since I will be in Canada until June 6, that might not be the most well prepared talk I have given.

It's good to see that you made over in time to get onto the conference circuit. Going to seminars (and giving them) is the thing I missed most since leaving accademia 20 years ago.
