SUMMARY:Pure Mathematics Colloquium | Yasuyuki Kawahigashi | Operator\nalge
 bras\, conformal field theory and condensed matter physics
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:YASUYUKI KAWAHIGASHI (UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO)\n\n_Operator algebra
 s\, conformal field theory and condensed matter\nphysics_\n\nWe present an
  operator algebraic approach to conformal field theory\nin connection to 
 other topics such as vertex operator algebras\,\nquantum groups and quantu
 m invariants in low-dimensional topology\,\nwhich started with subfactor t
 heory of Jones. We then present recent\nadvances on similar mathematical s
 tructures that appear in\ntwo-dimensional condenses matter physics such as
  quantum spin systems\,\ntensor networks and topological quantum computati
 on. No knowledge on\noperator algebras are assumed. \nMC 5479
