Workshop
“Conformal field theories in higher dimensions 2019″
Moscow, September 16–20, 2019
Exploration of conformal field theories (CFTs) is one of the key areas in modern theoretical physics where progress is happening at a rapid pace. The workshop will cover various aspects of CFTs as well as related topics, focusing in particular on higher-dimensional cases such as 3d and 4d theories. Areas discussed will include integrability, holography, conformal bootstrap and mathematical aspects.
We aim to bring together leading international and Russian experts in the subject, and ample time for discussions will be left to stimulate fruitful scientific exchange. We hope the spirit of the meeting to be a continuation of the successful “CFT in HD – 2018″ workshop held in Moscow the year before
