Organized by: Sergio Cacciatori (Università degli studi dell’Insubria), Samuel Grushevsky (SCGP), Alexander Polishchuk (University of Oregon) A supermanifold is the generalization of a usual manifold when some of the coordinates are even variables, and some are odd. The mathematical foundations of supergeometry were established in the 1970s and 1980s. While much of the motivation for … Read more

Organizers: Massimo D’Elia, Jeff Greensite, Elias Kiritsis, Zohar Komargodski, Edward Shuryak, Jacob Sonnenschein, Ismail Zahed A workshop on these topics was supposed to start in June 2020 and then again in June 2021 at the Simons Center of Stony Brook University, but this in-person meeting is now canceled. This will mean a roughly three-year gap … Read more
Organized by: Sergei Dubovsky (NYU), Zohar Komargodski (SCGP), Erich Poppitz (University of Toronto), Jacob Sonnenshein (Tel Aviv), Mithat Unsal (North Carolina State University) Since the introduction of QCD as the theory of gluons and quarks quite a lot of methods and toy models have been invoked to seek control on the theory. In particular: considering … Read more
Organized by: Jennifer Cano (Stony Brook University), Dominic Else (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Andrey Gromov (Brown), Siddharth Parameswaran (University of Oxford), Yizhi You (Princeton University) Topological phases of matter are a long-standing subject of interest in the condensed matter community, and increasingly relevant to issues in high-energy physics. A topological phase is traditionally defined to … Read more
Organized by: Eldad Bettelheim (Hebrew University), Ilya Gruzberg (Ohio State University), Håkan Hedenmalm (KTH), Alisa Knizel (University of Chicago), Paul Wiegmann (Univ. of Chicago) In recent years, the convergence of several topics in mathematics and physics have led to exciting developments in the study of fundamental problems in field theory, statistical mechanics, and probability theory. … Read more
