Particle Theory Seminar - Global Anomalies on the Hilbert Space, Jaume Gomis, Perimeter Institute

1:30 pm VIA ZOOM

 Global Anomalies on the Hilbert Space, Jaume Gomis, Perimeter Institute

We will discuss an elementary way of detecting global anomalies by analyzing the way the symmetry algebra is realized on the torus Hilbert space of the anomalous theory, give a physical interpretation of the “layersthat enter in the cobordism classification of anomalies and discuss applications, including how anomalies can imply a supersymmetric spectrum in strongly coupled (nonsupersymmetric) gauge theories.
