Douglas, Harvard University. 15:30 ч. Лекция 1: Tameness and quantum field theory Резюме: I will discuss the notion of a space of quantum field theories, and explain various approaches to its definition and some of its expected properties. I will then cover joint work with Thomas Grimm and Lorenz Schlechter on tameness of quantum field theories.  This is based on the mathematical concept of o-minimal structures, which has been very powerful for proving finiteness results. Given a QFT or a space of QFTs, we define a corresponding structure, and conjecture in many cases [...]
