The Legacy of Dr. Marni Sheppeard
Like and subscribe. This is an archive channel, i'm not the owner of the content, check the link in the end. Dr. Marni Sheppeard passed away during a hiking trip in New Zealand in early 2021. She was a category theorist with interests in theoretical physics, including the standard model and quantum gravity. Her thesis in 2007 introduced the notion of associahedra and operads being applied to scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory. By 2012, similar notions became popular through the coining of the term amplituhedron. This video briefly provides an overview of Marni’s life work by Quantum Gravity Research physicist David Chester and concludes by synthesizing how concepts in her thesis have been recapitulated in works from 2013 and 2017. The relationship of associahedra to QCD comes through the quark color charge sector, while the spin-1 kinematic sector of the gluons is deformed from the spin-0 kinematic associahedron of the biadjoint scalar theory. These later works are compatible with the claims laid out in Marni’s thesis.
