B-model Twisted Holography ▸ Kasia Budzik (Perimeter Inst.)

Recorded as part of the Spacetime and String Theory (#strings-c24) conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics (KITP) on April 2 - April 5, 2024 in Santa Barbara, CA.

String theory encompasses a wide range of perspectives on the nature of spacetime, from qubit models of black hole information to the string worldsheet. This conference will aim for a new synthesis of the field that builds on recent progress on the role of quantum information, new top-down techniques in string compactification and string field theory, and growing evidence for precise holographic dualities beyond anti-de Sitter space. The focus will be on bridging the divide between the IR and the UV. We will explore recent progress in non-perturbative string theory and stringy constraints on effective field theory, and develop the connections between the gravitational path integral, higher topologies, and entanglement, from low energy to the string scale.

Coordinators: Lara Anderson, Rajesh Gopakumar, Thomas Hartman, Xi Yin
