Description

I will begin with a broad overview of the main ingredients of causal set theory, and then discuss the partial resolution of a long-standing "puzzle" in the causal set path sum. I will then discuss other causal set curiousities, ending with a brief overview of the challenges in constructing a realistic fully non-perturbative quantum dynamics.

The presenter will be joining via Zoom for this talk.
