Announcement

We are pleased to announce the Fourth Edition of the Strings@ar Lectures on Advanced Topics of High Energy Physics.

​

The Lectures are organized by the Strings@ar Network around the end of November every year. The first edition took place in 2011 and it was centered on the applications of the gauge/gravity duality. The second edition in 2012 regarded generalized geometry, on-shell methods, and integrability. The third in 2013 concentrated in Holography in Field Theory and Quantum Gravity.

​

The lectures will cover the following topics:

- Geometric inequalities for black holes

- Entanglement entropy in field theory

- Phase transitions and black holes

They will be given by experts on these subjects, and are mainly oriented to PhD students and postdocs, but interested researchers are also welcome.
