Two directions in scattering amplitudes
This course will explore two recent developments in scattering amplitudes:
-Amplitudes from curve counting ( arxiv:2309.15913). The goal is to present a novel definition of amplitudes, based on combinatorial and algebraic geometry. This approach has uncovered many new interesting and fundamental properties of amplitude, such as amplitude zeroes.
-The analytic S matrix bootstrap (in particular topics discussed in arxiv:2203.02421). The bootstrap program aims to map the space of all theories consistent with the basic constraints of QFT.

讲师介绍
Laurentiu Rodina obtained his PhD from Princeton University, under the supervision of Nima Arkani-Hamed. He was a postdoctoral fellow at CEA Saclay-Paris and National Taiwan University, and a Marie Curie Fellow at Queen Mary University of London. He joined BIMSA as assistant professor in 2023 and since 2025 is associate professor. His research is focused on bootstrap approaches in QFT and CFT: describing the space of theories consistent with fundamental physical principles.
