This meeting will gather the France-based community working in string and quantum field theory for three days of scientific exchanges on current developments in these research areas. The workshop will take place at LAPTh, Annecy, from Tuesday 23rd May at 2pm till Thursday 25th at around 2pm. The detailed program can be found here. Talks […]

Speakers: Lorenz Eberhardt (Princeton, IAS)Abstract: I will explain a proposal which relates three-dimensional quantum gravity in AdS3 to a particular 3d TQFT that we refer to as ``Virasoro TQFT’'. This relation gives a precise meaning to the standard folklore that pure 3d gravity is related to two copies of SL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory. I will discuss […]

The "PhysTeV" series of workshops aims at pushing the frontier of fundamental Physics by bringing together theorists and experimentalists working on several aspects of phenomenology at TeV colliders and other experiments.World experts are brought together to address fundamental problems raised notably by the Higgs boson discovery, dark matter and the disappearance of antimatter in the […]

Speakers: Ruben Monten (Cern)Holography appears to be a fundamental property of gravity. However, even in well-established models like AdS/CFT, the compatibility of this principle with the locality properties of the gravitational physics we observe remains to be completely understood. We can make progress in less than four spacetime dimensions by using special properties of the […]

Speakers: Nicolas CrampéI will give the definition of the Leonard pair and itsconnection with the Askey-Wilson algebra.The use of these objects is explained in the context of different areas:integrable systems, centralizer, graph theory and special functions.I will explain generalizations I am interest in.https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/31460/
