Dear All,

Kindly be reminded that today, 2 March, the  ICTP Colloquium by Prof. Alain Connes on "Irreducible Representations of the Higher Heisenberg Relation and Pati-Salam Model Coupled to Gravity" is starting now in the Budinich Lecture Hall, LB, at 16:30 hrs.

Abstract: A problem purely motivated by how geometry emerges from the quantum formalism gives rise to a slightly noncommutative structure and a spectral model of gravity coupled with matter which fits with experimental knowledge.

Biosketch: French mathematician Alain Connes is a professor at the Collège de France, IHES, and a Distinguished Professor at Ohio State University, USA. He is the recipient of mathematics’ top award, the Fields Medal (1982), as well as the Crafoord Prize (2001)

The full abstract of the talk is available at: http://indico.ictp.it/event/8156/

The Colloquium will be livestreamed at: http://video.ictp.it/livestream

The poster are attached.

Light refreshments will be served after the lecture.

You are all very warmly invited to attend.

Best regards,

Fernando Quevedo
