Abstract: The theory of causal fermion systems is a recent approach to describe fundamental physics. Giving quantum mechanics, general relativity and quantum field theory as limiting cases, it is a candidate for a unified physical theory. The dynamics is described by a novel variational principle, the so-called causal action principle. From the mathematical perspective, causal fermion systems provide a general framework for describing and analyzing non-smooth geometries. In the talk I will introduce the mathematical setting and explain the connection to quantum field theory.
