Non-Perturbative Studies of JT Gravity and Supergravity Using Minimal Strings - Clifford V. Johnson
Institute for Advanced Study via YouTube
Overview
Explore non-perturbative aspects of JT gravity and supergravity through the lens of minimal strings in this comprehensive high energy theory seminar. Delve into topics such as Boom Gravity, double scaling limit, Dyson gas, conformal minimal models, and recursion relations. Examine the spectral density for large N limit, branch curves, parent equations, and Hamiltonians. Investigate complex matrix models and the Airy model as practical examples. Gain insights from speaker Clifford V. Johnson of the University of Southern California as he presents cutting-edge research in theoretical physics at the Institute for Advanced Study.
