Seminar June 18: L.F. Alday

On June 18 we will have a seminar by

Luis Fernando Alday (Oxford)

Title: 6d (2,0) correlators and quantum M-theory

Abstract:
We study holographic correlators in maximally super-symmetric conformal field theories. This includes the 6d (2,0) theory, where our computation is dual to graviton scattering in weakly coupled M-theory on AdS₇ × S⁴. Although the theory is non-Lagrangian, analytic bootstrap techniques allow us to make computations to one loop order. The flat space limit of our results exactly reproduces the 11d M-theory S-matrix in flat space.
