I’m giving a talk in Nicohl Furey’s series Algebra, Particles and Quantum Theory on Monday May 15, 2023 at 17:00 UTC, which is 10 am for me here in California:

Symmetric spaces and the tenfold way

Abstract: The tenfold way has many manifestations. It began as a tenfold classification of states of matter based on their behavior under time reversal and charge conjugation. Mathematically, it relies on the fact that there are ten super division algebras and ten kinds of Clifford algebras, where two ...
