Mathematical physics: algebraic cycles, strings and amplitudes

Workshop theme

Concrete realizations of cycles and motives play an increasingly important role in understanding the physics of amplitudes in both string theory and the study of Feynman integrals. We will bring together an international group of experts in diverse areas of mathematics and physics to discuss the state of the art.

Applications for this workshop are now closed
