Conference “Strings, Fields and Holograms”
COVID-19/Coronavirus Pandemic
Please note that the conference cannot take place as planned due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been postponed to 11 – 15 October 2021. Please refer to the new website for all details concerning the shifted conference.
Description
Understanding quantum gravity is one of the main open questions in modern theoretical physics. Holographic duality constitutes a major advance in this direction linking together quantum field theory and quantum gravity and in particular string theory. This meeting aims to bring together a diverse set of international experts working on the intersecting fields of string theory, quantum field theory and holography.
