A final reminder of friday's lectures. Please don't forget to register,
we need to know how many participants we can expect. Junior members
of the TPP program are expected to attend!

Best wishes, Eric


Dear friends and colleagues,


As part of our FOM program Theoretical Particle in the era of the LHC,
we have occasional lecture days on Theory Meeting days. These involve
advanced topics relevant to the theme of the proposal. On such a
lecture day we have 1  lecture (each 2 times 45min) in the morning,
and one in the later afternoon.

The second set of TPP lectures will be given by

Prof. Jan-Willem van Holten

Title: Ghosts and gauges, the mathematical machinery behind BRST quantization

Abstract:
In classical and quantum dynamics there exists a fundamental
connection between symmetries and constraints. The dynamical
symmetries and constraints can be implemented by extending the
classical phase space or the quantum state space with ghost degrees of
freedom. The procedure to construct these extensions will be described
and it will be shown how to recover the dynamics of the physical
system.

Place: The lectures will be held in at Nikhef.

Time: 10.45 - 12.30  in H239
          14.45 - 16.30  in H331
(each period with 15 min break).

We look forward to see many of you here.
Best regards,

Eric
