Mathematical supergravity

UNED - Madrid - Las Rozas

From the 19th to the 23rd of February 2024

Organizers: Vicente Cortés (Universität Hamburg) and C. S. Shahbazi (UNED - Madrid)

Contact emails: vicente.cortes@uni-hamburg.de and cshahbazi@mat.uned.es

Conference supported by a 2022 Leonardo Grant for Researchers and Cultural Creators, BBVA Foundation

A five-day conference on the mathematical theory of supergravity and its applications to differentiable geometry, topology and analysis

The goal of this event is to bring together mathematicians and theoretical physicists interested in the mathematical structure of supergravity and its interaction with mathematics. Key terms:

Spin geometry and its applications

Lorentzian Geometry and Causality

Cauchy and evolution problems in gravity

Differential topology of supersymmetric solutions

Curvature evolution flows in supergravity

Moduli spaces of supersymmetric structures

Categorified geometry and gauge theory

The mathematical theory of supergravity

Contributed talks from doctoral students and postdoctoral researchers are highly encouraged. 

Local participants are also required to register for organizational purposes and venue requirements.
