The interplay between the supersymmetric gauge theories and (non-supersymmetric) integrable theories in various dimensions is a puzzling development of several decades of research. In recent years the progress has been achieved in the understanding the non-perturbative dynamics of supersymmetric gauge theories subject to various supergravity backgrounds, and relating it to conformal and integrable field theories and lattice models in 1+1 dimensions. Quite independently, the scattering amplitudes and scaling dimensions in the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are also related to the conformal and integrable field theories and lattice models in 1+1 dimensions. Trying to take these coincidences seriously, understanding the dictionary, deriving the consequences, and discussing the applications, will be the main theme of the program.

Application for program is now closed.
