Abstract

The speaker will review the idea of quantum gravity with anisotropic scaling, and its applications to holography for non-relativistic field theories, focusing on the structure of anisotropic Weyl anomalies. He will also present some surprises which occur when the notion of Naturalness meets nonrelativistic physics.

The seminar is free and open to all. Seating is on a first-come, first-served basis.
