Physics Latam Seminar Weekly Schedule (Jun. 3- Jun. 7)
Join Us for Insightful Talks: Particle-operator Dictionary in AdS/CFT and Algebraic Topology in Physics!
Greetings!
📌 Tuesday, June 04 | 10:00 - 12:00 GMT -4
Title: Aspects of the Particle-operator (extrapolate) Dictionary in AdS/CFT
Speaker: Prof. David Berenstein from UCSB
David Berenstein is a Colombian theoretical physicist and a professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin in 1998 under the supervision of Willy Fischler, a coauthor of matrix theory. Berenstein was a visiting scholar at the Institute for Advanced Study from 2001 to 2004 and again in the fall of 2010 .
Berenstein's research primarily focuses on string theory, where he has made significant contributions, particularly to the AdS/CFT conjecture. Notably, in 2002, he worked on the duality between strings on pp-wave spacetime and, together with Juan Maldacena and Horațiu Năstase, developed the Berenstein–Maldacena–Năstase (BMN) operators in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Since 2004, his research has also delved into the matrix model of BPS (Bogomol'nyi–Prasad–Sommerfield bound) states in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.
