Subject: Quantum matter *in person* seminar for Monday, April 10 at 10 am

Dear all,
Please see the announcement about the Quantum Matter seminar on April 10 at 10 am that will be given in-person by Professor Yi-Zhuang You from UCSD in the Smith Seminar Room. Since the topic of mass generation and the Higgs mechanism is of broad interest in physics, I am including all faculty, students and postdocs. In case you are interested in meeting with Professor You please send a message to me and to Feng Shi.
See you,
Nandini



Title: Symmetric Mass Generation
Speaker: Yi-Zhuang You (UCSD)
Abstract: Mass is a fundamental physical property of matter. The Higgs mechanism is a standard framework to explain the origin of mass from symmetry breaking. However, it is recently realized that there are also physical mechanisms to generate mass for fermions without symmetry breaking by non-perturbative interaction effects. Symmetric mass generation is a novel mechanism that can occur when the fermion system is free from any quantum anomaly. In this talk, I will introduce the recent research progress of symmetric mass generation in condensed matter and high-energy physics systems, including twisted-bilayer graphene and the Standard Model, making connections to fermionic symmetry-protected topological phases, deconfined quantum critical points, lattice regularization of chiral fermions, pseudo-gap physics, and generalized Luttinger theorems.
