Time: 2:00 PM


Speaker: Sebastian Mizera, Member, School of Natural Sciences, IAS


*Abstract: *You might've heard about various mathematical properties of 
scattering amplitudes such as analyticity, sheets, branch cuts, 
discontinuities, etc. What does it all mean? In these lectures, we'll 
take a guided tour through simple scattering problems that will allow us 
to directly trace such properties back to physics. We'll learn how 
different analytic features of the S-matrix are really consequences of 
causality, locality of interactions, unitary propagation, and so on.

This talk is a part of a series of lectures aimed at graduate students. 
The second one will focus on aspects of quantum-mechanical scattering, 
as well as the relation between locality and analyticity.
