Geometry of Strings and Fields

Abstract

This workshop focused on the interactions between string theory and geometry. Since its birth, the development of string theory has triggered major progress in mathematics. Experts from both communities from all over the world took part and created an environment which favored a fruitful scientific exchange. Among the key topics discussed during the workshop, we should mention derived algebraic geometry and topological field theory, localization formulas in supersymmetric quantum field theories, links between conformal field theory, susy and integrability, new trends in knot theory.
