 ax: \nDescription: It has long been understood that the exact (“fundamen
 tal”) gauge symmetry of the electromagnetic fields plays an important ro
 le in the theory of quantum materials. What has come into focus more recen
 tly is that there exist essential properties of quantum phases of matter t
 hat are best understood in terms of an effective field theory with emergen
 t gauge fields\, rather than (or in addition to) in terms of broken symmet
 ries. Here\, gauge invariance is not a symmetry of the microscopic problem
  but is rather an efficient representation of the low energy physics. As t
 ime permits\, I will discuss recent theoretical results that suggest that 
 exotic “resonating valence-bond” fluids\, describable by emergent gaug
 e theories\, might exist in a much broader range of experimentally accessi
 ble platforms than has been previously appreciated.
