Tate's Thesis and P-adic Strings in Quantum Field Theory

Harvard CMSA via YouTube

Overview

Watch a 57-minute lecture from the AQFT Lecture Series where An Huang from Brandeis University explores the relationship between genus zero p-adic string worldsheet action deformations and Tate's thesis, demonstrating how this connection provides insights into quadratic reciprocity. Delve into the proposed genus one p-adic string worldsheet action, focusing on the definition of a p-adic Laplacian operator on a Tate curve and its Green's function computation. Learn about recent developments in creating a Lorentzian version of the p-adic worldsheet action, offering advanced perspectives in mathematical physics and string theory.
