Quantum Field Theory 

and

Mathematical Physics 

MAY 14-16, 2003

International Conference Hall 

Korea Institute for Advanced Study, Seoul, Korea 


 Korea Institute for Advanced Study (KIAS) will host the KIAS workshop on Quantum Field Theory and Mathematical Physics during May 15-16, 2003. The purpose of this workshop is to provide researchers an opportunity to meet and discuss various topics in quantum field theory. The focus will be more on more formal sides rather than phenomenological aspects. Some of topics will be related to superstring/M theory.  

 

Organization Committee: Gerald Dunne (Univ. Connecticut) , Kimyeong Lee (KIAS), Chaiho Rim (Chonbuk Univ.)
