Instructors: Nima Arkani-Hamed, Institute for Advanced Study, and Freddy Cachazo, Perimeter Institute
Type: Perimeter Institute non-credit mini-course
Dates: August 23 - 27; 10:00 am and 3:00 pm, Bob Room

This mini-course will review recent developments in our understanding of scattering amplitudes in gauge theories, particularly N=4 SYM in four dimensions. We will discuss a dual theory for these scattering amplitudes associated with contour integrals over Grassmannians, where the remarkable symmetries of the theory are manifest, but space-time and unitarity emerge as secondary concepts.
