Fields and Strings Seminar: Duality in 2 + 1 Dimensions
A combination of ideas originating from Condensed Matter physics, Supersymmetric Field Theory, and AdS/CFT has led to a detailed web of conjectured dualities. These relate the long distance behavior of different short distance theories. These dualities clarify a large number of confusing and controversial issues in Condensed Matter physics and in the study of 2+1 dimensional quantum field theory.
