[AnLy] Solving 3d Gravity with Virasoro TQFT
Online seminarSpeakers: Lorenz Eberhardt (Princeton, IAS)Abstract: I will explain a proposal which relates three-dimensional quantum gravity in AdS3 to a particular 3d TQFT that we refer to as ``Virasoro TQFT’'. This relation gives a precise meaning to the standard folklore that pure 3d gravity is related to two copies of SL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory. I will discuss […]
