Hello everybody!
I recently started to work in nonperturbative QFT (especially CFT and SUSY models).
I love my work but wonder what is the recent development in this subject beyond the SM?
It is not hard to see that at the dawn of XX - early 2000's the most exciting results in nonperturbative QFT were Seiberg-Witten solution, Holography, ADS/CFT, Dvali&Arcani-Hamed papers on extra dimensions and quantum gravity and so on...(I'm not well familiar with such progress in string theory)
But what smart people say about 2005-2015? What are the most original and renowned theoretical papers?
What young and talented researcher should pay attention to?

I'm a biologist, not a professional, but I think AdS/CFT remains the most exciting, especially the efforts to understand how geometry might emerge from entanglement.

http://arxiv.org/abs/0905.1317
http://arxiv.org/abs/0907.2939
http://arxiv.org/abs/1308.3716

I would also love to understand what is going on in these papers:
http://arxiv.org/abs/1503.08825
http://arxiv.org/abs/1506.01337

Thank you for your reply, I have never seen these papers; it seems they are very interesting.
Unfortunately I have no good supervisors for doing ADS/CFT in my city.
For now I'm interested in AGT conjecture and some integrable models.

This is an alert about a claim regarding the standard model, that got a burst of attention in the past two weeks. The original paper came out last year: "The electroweak η_W meson" by Gia Dvali, Archil Kobakhidze, Otari Sakhelashvili (2024) The recent follow-up and other responses are "η_W-meson from topological properties of the electroweak vacuum" by Dvali et al "Hiding in Plain Sight, the electroweak η_W" by Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Francesco Sannino, Jessica Turner "Astrophysical...
In LQG and LQC there are solutions called "black to white transition". I'll add some references: (Rovelli)https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.07251 (Rovelli)https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.03872 (Rovelli)https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.06330 (Rovelli)https://arxiv.org/pdf/1802.04264 (Rovelli)https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12823 https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.02691 https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.07589 https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.01788 https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.12646 https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.03027...
Hello everyone, I am seeking to better understand the conceptual foundations and potential consequences of "Two-Time Physics" (2T-physics), as developed by Itzhak Bars and others. My interest was sparked by a recent paper that attempts to explain anomalous results in particle physics (apparent superluminal propagation of virtual photons) within the framework of 2T-physics: Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.02696 Key quote from the abstract: *"...the problem... can be solved naturally...
