LELAND STANFORD JUNIOR UNIVERSITY, THE
This proposal consists of several projects investigating the new area of
research known as "String Topology", as well as related questions.
String topology, a theory that was first introduced in 1999, studies structures on spaces of paths, loops, and surfaces.
This structure was motivated by formalisms in string theory in physics.
The idea is to understand how loops (or paths) in a background space can
evolve in time. Loops can evolve by changing in size and even breaking
apart. In this proposal this theory is studied in a variety of
contexts, including the mathematical formalisms of Quantum Field Theory.
Moreover the several projects understanding the relationship between
string topology and more geometric theories are pursued.
