High-Energy Physics at the Frontier with Mathematics
The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC has confirmed the Standard Model of Particle Physics up to the highest energies ever tested in a laboratory. The Standard Model is based on a rich mathematical framework, Quantum Field Theory. Among the most powerful instruments to extract precise theoretical predictions for physical observables in Quantum Field Theory are the so-called scattering amplitudes: remarkably involved mathematical objects which encapsulate the probabilities of particle collisions. The calculation of scattering amplitudes remains an outstanding mathematical problem, which has become the object of intense study both from physicists and mathematicians. In the last decade…
