Renormalization in Background Independent Theories

[marcus]

It's non-trivial since if you do not have a background metric you cannot define the scale, with respect to which couplings are supposed to run. So new approaches to renormalization have appeared. Perimeter has a workshop on this and a number of Monday 28 Sep talks are on line

Talks by:
Wieland
Bahr
Bonzom
Guifre Vidal
Dittrich
Zapata

As of now also a couple of the 29 Sep talks are also online.

There are now 16 talks online in this series. In addition to the speakers mentioned in the previous post there are talks by:
Etera Livine
Marc Geiller
Sylvain Carrozza
Jeff Hnybida
and several others whose work I'm familiar with.
