Scope
In recent years, quantum information concepts such as entanglement entropy have offered an intriguing point of view of how semiclassical radiation encoded information in black holes and even in cosmological spacetimes, allowing us to learn about the quantum nature of gravity. At the same time, novel developments in holography and non-Lorentzian geometry both provide us with new perspectives on gravitational systems as well.
Through the gravity sagas of speakers, this conference aims to provide an overview of new and exciting developments in the aforementioned topics.
