This 45-minute conference talk by Anna Hasenfratz from CU Boulder explores the concept of Symmetric Mass Generation as a new paradigm in strongly interacting Quantum Field Theory. Delve into advanced theoretical physics concepts with applications ranging from the strong nuclear force to Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Learn about recent developments in Lattice Gauge Theory, which has become a precision tool thanks to improved algorithms, theoretical insights, and increased computational power. The presentation is part of a conference aimed at stimulating interplay between lattice and continuum approaches to QFT, covering topics such as Euclidean and Hamiltonian approaches to lattice field theory, quantum simulation connections, string-theoretic approaches to confining flux tubes, and their relationship with recent formal QFT developments like generalized symmetries. Hosted by the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics and co-sponsored by the Simons Collaboration on Confinement and QCD Strings, this talk offers valuable insights for researchers and advanced students in theoretical physics.
