Exact Results in Supersymmetric Gauge Theory
(University of Waterloo, 2016-08-30)Exact results are a key component for understanding any physical theory. Unfortunately in the context of quantum field theory (QFT) they are in general impossible to obtain, and we need some sort of approximations. However ... -
Quantum critical responses via holographic models and conformal perturbation theory
(University of Waterloo, 2017-06-15)We investigate response functions near quantum critical points, allowing for finite temperature and a mild deformation by a relevant scalar. When the quantum critical point is described by a conformal field theory, we use ...
