Various Facets of Semiclassical Limit of Liouville Conformal Blocks

Explore the semiclassical limit of Liouville conformal blocks in this 58-minute conference talk by P. Ghosal from the University of Chicago, presented as part of the NCCR SwissMAP workshop on Intersections of Topological Recursion, Conformal Field Theory, and Random Geometry. Delve into the mathematical intricacies of conformal field theory as Ghosal examines multiple aspects of how Liouville conformal blocks behave in the semiclassical regime, providing insights into the connections between quantum field theory, mathematical physics, and geometric structures that emerge in this limiting case.
