Symposium On: Reconciling Quantum Field Theory with our Intuition
Chair: Roman M Sverdlov, Strike Foundation, United States
Topic: This symposium potentially includes a range of
topics. On the one end, it includes attempts to get rid of path integral and Fock space
altogether and come up with classical models that produce quantum field theory as emergent
outcome. On the other end, it includes theories that accept path integrals, Fock space
as-is, and simply attempt to make entities that go into path integrals (Grassmann numbers,
Fadeev Popov ghosts, superspace, etc) less abstract. The topics include quantum measurement
in quantum field theory context (adapting Bohmian model, GRW model and others to QFT) and
they also include mathematically rigorous formulations of QFT, outside of any attempts of
quantum measurement. And it also includes combinations of both.
