This is the webpage for the seminar on QFT at the University of Queensland.
 
 
Meetings: Thursdays 3-4:30 pm, Priestly Building Seminar Room 67-442
 
 
 
INVITATION EMAIL SENT TO EVERYBODY IN MATH AND PHYSICS
 
 
Dear colleagues,
 
 
We are having a seminar on Affine Lie Algebras this semester. The goal is to introduce mathematicians to the physical intuition of the theory, while at the same time, introduce physicists to the mathematical rigour demanded by the theory. The seminar will meet once a week on
 
 
Thursdays 3:00-4:30 pm - Priestly Building 67-442.
 
The first meeting will be this coming Thursday (March 1).
 
 
This is a continuation of the seminar we had last semester regarding mathematical aspects of quantum field theory. Following the approach of the last semester, most of the talks will be given by students and on voluntary basis. The talks will be of informal nature, with lots of questions and discussions. New postgraduate students who are interested in the topic are especially encouraged to participate. We hope to continue to have the presence of the more knowledgable staff to guide us through the intricacies of the subject. 
 
 
The program of the seminar can be found at:

This is the only email sent to the mass email list regarding this semester's seminar. If you are not already on the seminar's list and would like to be informed, please send me an email and I will include you in the future announcements.
 
 
All the best,
