M-Theory and Hidden Spacetime in Quantum Field Theory
M-Theory arises as non-perturbative formulation of string theory and as such may be viewed as a complete quantum theory of particle physics, unified with gravity. However in this talk we will discuss predictions M-theory makes about the non-perturbative behaviour of quantum field theory. In particular we will discuss examples where there is a hidden extra dimension that opens up at strong coupling.
