Operator Algebras and Applications: June 17 – 21, 2019
Organized by: Stefan Hollands, Vaughan Jones, Gandalf Lechner, Roberto Longo Since Heisenberg’s and Jordan’s “matrix formulation” of quantum mechanics about one hundred years ago, theoretical quantum physics has been a major incentive for mathematical research into operator algebras. The stimulus […]
Graduate Summer School on the Mathematics and Physics of Hitchin Systems: May 27 – 31, 2019
Organized by Lara Anderson and Laura Schaposnik co-organizers: Marcos Jardim, Sheldon Katz, and Joerg Teschner. The school is aimed at graduate students and young postdocs, and will expose participants to some current research topics on the geometry and physics of Higgs […]
A Workshop on Challenges at the Interface of Hitchin Systems and String Theory: March 18 – 22, 2019
Organized by Lara Anderson and Laura Schaposnik Co-organized by Rafe Mazzeo and Tony Pantev The workshop will be devoted to recent exciting developments related to Higgs bundles and the Hitchin fibration, and string theory. The purpose of the workshop is to bring […]
Automorphic Structures in String Theory: March 4 – 8, 2019
Organized by Daniel Persson, Terry Gannon, David Ginzburg, Axel Kleinschmidt, Stephen D. Miller, Boris Pioline The purpose of this interdisciplinary workshop is to investigate connections between string theory, automorphic forms, mock modular forms, and beyond. Automorphic representations are part of […]
Vertex Algebras and Gauge Theory: December 17 – 21, 2018
Organized by Sergei Gukov, Tomoyuki Arakawa, Boris Feigin, Alba Grassi, Hiraku Nakajima, Nikita Nekrasov, Andrei Okounkov December 17-21, 2018. Vertex operator algebras have a long history of interaction with physics by describing two-dimensional systems at criticality. More recently, they appeared, […]
Simons Summer Workshop: July 16 – August 10, 2018
This Workshop is the eleventh conducted by the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at Stony Brook and the Sixteenth in the series Simons Summer Workshops. One of the predictions of string theory is that certain apparently consistent quantum field […]
Spring School on Geometric Aspects of General Relativity March 22 – 25, 2018
Organized by: Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri and Christina Sormani Graduate students (and postdocs) with background in Riemannian Geometry are invited to attend this four day school introducing geometric aspects of Mathematical General Relativity. There will be introductory lectures on: * […]
Tensor-Network Methods: Structure, Applications and Holography: December 11 – 15, 2017
Organized by: Glen Evenbly (University of Sherbrooke), Roman Orus (Univ. of Mainz), David Perez-Garcia (Univ. Complutense de Marid), Tzu-Chieh Wei (Stony Brook University) Over the past few decades we have witnessed a rapid exchange and infuse of ideas across different […]
Exotic Hadrons and Flavor Physics: May 28 – June 1, 2018
Organizers: Exotic Hadrons: Marek Karliner, Jon Rosner and Tomasz Skwarnicki Flavor Physics: Amarjit Soni and George Sterman During the last few years there has been a large number of new experimental discoveries of “exotic” hadrons which do not fit the […]
