Explore advanced physical aspects of gauge theory in this 47-minute lecture delivered by T. Dumitrescu from the University of California as part of the 2025 SCGCS School on Topological Symmetries and Defects in Quantum Field Theory. Delve into sophisticated theoretical concepts that bridge gauge theory with topological symmetries and defects in quantum field theory, building upon foundational knowledge from previous parts of this lecture series. Examine the mathematical frameworks and physical principles that govern gauge theories, with particular emphasis on their topological properties and applications in modern theoretical physics. Gain insights into cutting-edge research developments in this specialized area of quantum field theory, presented as part of a comprehensive educational program organized by NCCR SwissMAP for advanced students and researchers in theoretical physics.
