Gauge/Gravity Duality

Jul 26, 2021 – Jul 30, 2021
CERN Geneva Switzerland
#

 Unfortunately, due to the restrictions connected to the response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the event in its current form was cancelled. Instead the conference has been postponed to July 26-July 30, 2021 to be held again here at CERN.

Gauge/Gravity Duality has established itself as a significant link between gravitation and quantum field theory. It provides a major tool for describing strongly coupled quantum systems. It relates concepts of information of black hole physics and quantum information theory. Moreover, it creates significant new links between quantum field theory and string theory. Previous conferences in this series have been held in Würzburg (2018), Florence (2015) and Munich (2013).

The aim of the conference is to explore all aspects of gauge/gravity duality, both applied and theoretical, and to generate an extensive exchange of ideas.

At the conference, the topics to be discussed include gauge/gravity duality in the context of:

• Quantum information,

• Applications to condensed matter physics,

• Applications to particle physics and to cosmology,

• Supergravity, integrability and the conformal bootstrap. Postdocs and PhD students are particularly encouraged to apply for a parallel session talk (15+5 minutes) or for a poster.
