Symbolic Computation in Theoretical Physics: Integrability and super-Yang-Mills

Start time: November 5

Ends on: November 16

Venue: São Paulo, Brazil

Organizers: N. Berkovits (IFT-UNESP, São Paulo), N. Gromov (King’s College, London), P. Vieira (Perimeter Institute, Waterloo).

Lecturers and (provisional) titles: Konstantin ZaremboNordita Institute (Stockholm)Introduction to Integrability and super-Yang-Mills
———————————————Romuald Janik — Jagellonian Univ. (Krakow) — Integrability and AdS-CFT
———————————————
Nikolay Gromov – King’s College (London) —Symbolic Computations in super-Yang-Mills and Integrability I
———————————————Gregory Korchemsky – Inst. de Phys. Theorique (Saclay) – Correlation Functions in super-Yang-Mills

Description: The goal of the school is to bring together theoretical physicists of all levels who want to learn both symbolic computational methods and a selected advanced research topic in theoretical physics. The topic for this year’s edition will be the Spectrum and Correlation Functions of Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and Integrability. The symbolic computational methods will be mostly based on the use of Mathematica and will focus on examples in this physics topic. There is no registration fee.

Previous editions of the school took place in Porto (2009 and 2010) and Waterloo (2011). See http://www2.fc.up.pt/mathschool/ for more information about the previous school.
