Abstract
A great deal of progress has been made in computing scattering amplitudes in 4d quantum field theories by expressing the amplitudes in terms of variables known as twistors. In this talk, I will describe twistorial methods for computing scattering amplitudes in 3d quantum field theories, in particular superconformal Chern-Simons theories and supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. These methods have led to the discovery of new symmetries and dualities in 3d quantum field theories.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
