Special String Math Seminar: Nikita Nekrasov (Stony Brook University) “Yang-Mills flows for twisted multilayer graphene”
–
We describe an unexpected application of geometry of the space of gauge fields in two dimensional Yang-Mills theory, the subject of celebrated works of Narasimhan-Seshadri and Atiyah-Bott, to the active domain of research in condensed matter physics: the search for high-Tc superconductivity in exotic materials. Specifically, we shall clarify the meaning of the phenomenon of “magic angles” in the physics … Read More
