Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The aim of the seminar will be to provide an introduction to selected geometric models occurring in physics. We will discuss Yang-Mills fields and harmonic maps, including solitons and vortices. According to the interests of the participants, possible further topics might include Chern-Simons theories, and/or skyrmions.

Assessment and permitted materials

The course has immanent examination character.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Becoming acquainted with special topics in gravitational physics.

Examination topics

Participants give seminar talks.
