Explore categorical conserved currents in quantum field theory through this seminar lecture delivered by Professor Paul Fendley from the University of Oxford. Delve into advanced theoretical physics concepts as part of the "Quantum field theory with boundaries, impurities, and defects" event series, examining how categorical structures apply to conservation laws in quantum systems. Gain insights into the mathematical frameworks that govern conserved quantities in field theories, particularly in the context of systems with boundaries and defects. Learn about the intersection of category theory and quantum field theory, understanding how these mathematical tools provide new perspectives on fundamental conservation principles in physics.
