About:

The interplay between geometry and physics has been a driving force for new developments in both mathematics and physics for a very long time. In the last two decades, higher category theory has become a fine contributor in this dialogue, providing many invaluable ideas and very useful heuristics. This workshop aims to present the latest results in the application of (higher) geometry to theoretical physics and to foster new collaborations between mathematicians and theoretical physicists. Focal points of the workshop will be algebraic and symplectic geometry, mirror symmetry, generalised geometry and T-/U-duality, higher gauge theory and its applications, higher and generalised symmetries, and the application of homotopy algebras in the context quantum field theory.
