SUMMARY:Resurgence and trans-series in quantum field theory
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Gerald Dunne\, University of Connecticut\n\nPart of t
	he HET Seminar Series.\n\nAbstract:\nResurgent asymptotic analysis using tr
	ans-series is a formalism that systematically unifies perturbative and non-
	perturbative physics. One of the more remarkable features of resurgence is 
	the capacity to relate fluctuations about different non-perturbative sector
	s in a precise quantitative manner. It has recently been applied to a wide 
	variety of problems in physics\, including asymptotically free quantum fiel
	d theories\, matrix models\, SUSY theories\, Chern-Simons theories\, topolo
	gical string theory\, and exact quantization conditions in quantum mechanic
	s. In this talk I will present a general review of the basic ideas underlyi
	ng resurgence and describe some applications.
