Masanori Hanada has been giving talks on two continents this month. On Sept 15 and 16, he gave two live lectures on “Matrix models” at a summer school on quantum computing and tensor networks held at Yukawa Institute of Theoretical Physics. Matrix models are important in the dual description of superstring theory and M-theory. Masanori […]
