Maxim Kontsevich belongs to a new generation of mathematicians who have been able to integrate in their area of work aspects of quantum theory, opening up radically new perspectives. On the mathematical side, he has drawn on the systematic use of known algebraic structure deformations and on the introduction of new ones that turned out to be relevant in many other areas, with no obvious link.

May 5, 2019 · Abstract. Having set up the necessary background in the last two chapters, in this chapter we introduce the Kontsevich invariant. It describes its construction and proves that it is an invariant of q-tangles. Download chapter PDF. Let \ (T^ {w_1}_ {w_0}\) be a framed q -tangle. Then \ (T^ {w_1}_ {w_0}\) is said to be a framed q - tangle on a 1 ...

May 21, 2021 · Wick rotation and the positivity of energy in quantum field theory. Maxim Kontsevich, Graeme Segal. We propose a new axiom system for unitary quantum field theories on curved space-time backgrounds, by postulating that the partition function and the correlators extend analytically to a certain domain of complex-valued metrics.
