Abstract

I will discuss a recently observed connection between Gaussian thermal partition functions in d=2L+1 dimensions and L-loop conformal graphs in D=4. While the origin of such a connection is still unclear, I will argue that it offers some interesting perspectives in quantum field theory and in mathematics.
