Invitation to Conformal Field Theory: Through the Looking Glass of Conformal Symmetry

Описание к видео Invitation to Conformal Field Theory: Through the Looking Glass of Conformal Symmetry

At its simplest, a conformal field theory is a theory which has conformal symmetry (and is described in the language of fields). This video seeks to explain what conformal symmetry is, in visual terms, to provide an introduction to the rich theory of CFT.
