Description

A fundamental challenge of the current era in theoretical physics is to understand and solve strongly coupled quantum field theories. Meeting this challenge will require a significant reformulation of the edifice of quantum field theory in which the foundations are symmetries and consistency conditions. The goal of this project is to tackle this problem combining cutting edge methods for the study of strongly coupled conformal field theories with the development of new techniques.
