CMSA GENERAL RELATIVITY SEMINAR, CMSA EVENTS
September 19, 2023 11:00 amWe develop the reduced phase space quantization of causal diamonds in $2+1$ dimensional gravity with a nonpositive cosmological constant. The system is defined as the domain of dependence of a...

September 15, 2023 3:30 pmSince Floer's work in 1988, various Floer homologies have been constructed for closed 3-manifolds, knots, and sutured manifolds. In 2008, Kronheimer-Mrowka proposed a conjecture about isomorphisms among Floer homologies. In...
