Scope

Black holes are playing an ever increasing role in fundamental physics, from information theory to quantum gravity and holography. They are now under active investigation in many important branches of observational, theoretical and mathematical physics. In particular, they have stimulated important advances in the computation of entanglement entropies in large N conformal field theory and in various aspects of gauge theory/gravity duality.

This workshop gathers researchers working on mathematical problems related to the holographic description of black holes, in its quantum aspects. The workshop will stimulate progress at this cutting edge of theoretical high energy physics.
