Title | Flavoured Leptogenesis and Neutrino Mass Matrix |
Speaker | 進藤哲央(INFN) |
Date | 24 July (Tue) 15:30 H711 |
Abstract | Seesaw mechanism can explain the existence of the baryon asymmetryof the Universe by successful leptogenesis scenario. Recently, it was pointed out that flavour affects the prediction of leptogenesis. In this talk, I will show interesting features of the flavoured leptogenesis scenario. |
Title | An Attempt Towards Field Theory of D-Branes |
Speaker | 米谷民明(東大駒場) |
Date | 18 July (Wed) 15:30 H711 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | In this seminar, I outline my recent attempt towards field theory for D-branes. After explaining some background material as motivation, I propose a new field-theoretic framework for formulating the non-relativistic quantum mechanics of D particles (D0 branes) in terms of quantum field operators, creating and annihilating D particles in the Fock space of U(N) Yang-Mills theories. Together with the open-closed string duality, our new formulation suggests a trinity of three different but dual viewpoints on string theory. |
Title | AdS/CFT Correspondence as a Consequence of Scale Invariance |
Speaker | 須山孝夫(京都大学) |
Date | 12 July (Thur) 15:30 H711 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | We study an anisotropic scale transformation in the worldsheet description of D3-branes in Type IIB theory, and show that the transformation is really a symmetry in a region near D3-branes. AdS/CFT correspondence follows from this symmetry. We will explicitly show that Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and minimal surfaces in AdS_5 are related by the symmetry. The functional form of a supersymmetric Wilson loop operator is naturally derived from our worldsheet point of view. |

Date | 4 July (Wed) 15:30 H711 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | 共形場理論におけるKnizhnik-Zamolodchikov方程式とmonodromy保存変形の1つSchlesinger方程式の関係は, かなり以前に指摘されている[Reshetkhin('92), Harnad(hep-th/9406078)].本講演では, この関係を読み直すことにより, KZ方程式の解からPainlev\'e第6方程式$P_{VI}$の超幾何関数解が自然に構成されることを示す. ASDYM方程式のreductionとしての$P_{VI}$の表示[Mason-Woodhouse('93)]との関係も議論する. |

Title | Hawking Radiation and Anomalies of Higher-spin Currents |
Speaker | 森田 健 (京大基研) |
Date | 19 June (Tue) 15:30 H711 |
Abstract | Quantum fields in the near horizon region of the black hole backgrounds can be described in terms of two-dimensional conformal field theories. By investigating anomalies of general higher-spin currents, we reproduce the thermal distribution of Hawking radiation in Schwarzschild and RN black holes. This talk is based on hep-th/0701272 and arXiv:0705.3494. |

Title | Origin of dressing phase in N=4 Super Yang-Mills |
Speaker | 酒井 一博(慶応義塾大学) |
Date | 5 June (Tue) 15:30 H711 |
Abstract | 可積分性を利用したN=4超対称ゲージ理論とAdS背景の超弦理論の定量的解析が急速に進展している。両理論のスペクトルの構成や両者を結びつけるAdS/CFT対応の定量的理解において、鍵を握るのは基本粒子のS行列である。S行列の形は対称性からある程度決まり、残る位相因子の関数形の決定がこの一年半の懸案事項であった。弦理論、ゲージ理論の摂動計算から類推した予想形が提案されていたが、我々はこの予想形が量子可積分系の枠組内で導出できることを示した。本セミナーではこのS行列にまつわる最近の進展を紹介する。 |

Title | The Origins of String Theory |
Speaker | 南部 陽一郎(シカゴ大学、大阪大学) |
Date | 16 May (Wed) 16:30 H601 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | The 1950s and 60s were the time of steady progress in particle physics. On the one hand, new hadrons showed up one after another, and on the other, theorists groped for the correct ways to make sense out of them. The hadronic string theory was an outcome of these efforts, which eventually would lead to the present superstring theory. I will give an overview of that exciting development. |

Title | Neutrino Mixing, Low Energy Leptonic CP-Violation and Leptogenesis |
Speaker | Serguey T. Petcov (SISSA/INFN) |
Date | 27 April (Fri) 12:00 H711 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | Taking into account the recent progress in the understanding of the lepton flavour effects in leptogenesis, the possibility will be discussed that the CP-violation necessary for the generation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe is due exclusively to the Dirac and/or Majorana CP-violating phases in the PMNS neutrino mixing matrix $U$, and thus is directly related to the low energy CP-violation in the lepton sector (e.g., in neutrino oscillations, etc.). |

Title | The Killing superalgebra of a supergravity background |
Speaker | Jose Figueroa-O'Farrill (University of Edinburgh) |
Date | 13 April (Fri) 12:00 H711 <------ Attention! |
Abstract | I will review the construction of a Lie superalgebra associated to a supersymmetric supergravity background for the 10- and 11-dimensional supergravity theories and then I will discuss applications of this construction: some historical (e.g., early geometric tests of the AdS/CFT correspondence), and some more modern (e.g., how much supersymmetry makes the background homogeneous). If time allows, I will also comment on what this superalgebra might be able to teach us about quantum corrections. |
Title | Manifestly gauge invariant exact renormalization group |
Speaker | Timothy Richard Morris (Southampton University) |
Date | 10 April (Tue) 15:30 H711 |
Abstract | We construct a manifestly gauge invariant Exact Renormalization Group for SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, in a form suitable for calculations without gauge fixing at any order of perturbation theory. The effective cutoff is incorporated via a manifestly realised spontaneously broken SU(N|N) gauge invariance. Diagrammatic methods are developed which allow the calculations to proceed without specifying the precise form of the cutoff structure. We confirm consistency by computing for the first time both the one and two loop beta function coefficients without fixing the gauge or specifying the details of the cutoff. We conclude by sketching how quarks fit in and a new non-perturbative approximation scheme. |
