Martin Wolf is in Lisbon this week (24-27 July) visiting the Instituto Superior Técnico and attending the Higher Structures Lisbon 2017 conference. Martin is giving a talk at the conference on “Super Yang-Mills theory from higher Chern-Simons theory“. The aim of the conference is to stimulate interaction between people who are working in higher structures interpreted in the broad sense (Batalin–Vilkovisky algebras, higher category theory, operad theory rational homotopy theory, and persistent homology). Further details and abstracts can be found here.
