Marcel Merk (Nikhef, Amsterdam)

Title: Flavour Puzzles and the LHCb Experiment Abstract: Why is there no antimatter in the universe and why does nature provide us with three generations of similar fundamental fermions? These so-called flavour puzzles are among the most intriguing… Read More

Francesca Vidotto (Western University, Ontario)

Title: Covariant Loop Quantum Gravity and Cosmology Abstract: The covariant formulation of Loop Quantum Gravity dynamics, referred also as Spinfoam, provides currently the most complete formulation for a non-perturbative theory of quantum gravity. It is a formulation of the gravitational path integral as a… Read More

Alfonso Garmendia (I’Institut d’Estudis Catalans, Barcelona)

Title: Frame PB-groupoid of a VB-groupoid Abstract: Principal bundles are essential objects in gauge theories. A basic example of a principal bundle is the frames (or pointwise ordered basis) of a vector bundle on a manifold. Using this… Read More

Keith Glennon (Okinawa Institute of Science & Technology)

Title: An Overview of the E11 Program Abstract: We will discuss the claim that the low energy effective action of the theory of strings and branes possesses an E11 Kac-Moody symmetry. We will show that a certain non-linear realization… Read More
