Organizing Committee
This school will have a format similar to previous ICTP Latin-American string schools held in Cuba (1998) and Mexico (2000). There will be three weeks of lectures starting with basic string theory and continuing to more advanced topics. The lectures will assume knowledge of quantum field theory and general relativity at the graduate student level, but will not assume previous familiarity with string theory. There will also be daily discussion sessions and homework exercises.
Funding for housing and travel expenses will be available from the ICTP and other sources for participants from developing countries. Application information is available on this webpage. Because of space limitations, participation in the school will be restricted to a limited number of participants.
To be considered for the school, application forms and recommendation letters must be received before June 15.
