Jan 14, 2019 at 10:42 | comment | added | knzhou | Not to rain on your parade, but 95% of undergrad research projects lead to nothing because the undergrad jumps to a super advanced topic. I’ve seen this play out a hundred times. If you don’t already know quantum field theory, it’s not going to be a productive summer, for either learning or research. If you want to learn, it would be much much more efficient to read a textbook instead. If you want to see what research is like, you could try a topic with fewer prereqs. | |

Jan 14, 2019 at 4:07 | comment | added | Azimuth Zero | @G.Smith I'm an undergrad. The position description stated that students of all levels of knowledge are encouraged to apply, but willingness to learn is a must; therefore I suspect that this is just some test to see if I am willing to tackle a problem with which I am unfamiliar. At least, that's what I hope. | |
Jan 14, 2019 at 3:56 | comment | added | G. Smith | See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N_%3D_4_supersymmetric_Yang–Mills_theory for an explanation of N. I would run away as fast as I could from this investigator if he or she is not going to spend time with you to get you up to speed. | |
