Theory + AI Workshop: Theoretical Physics for AI
10 talks-Collection NumberC25022This 5-day program will explore the intersection of AI and fundamental theoretical physics. The event will feature two components, a symposium and a workshop, centered around two complementary themes: AI for theoretical physics and theoretical physics for AI.
The program will begin on April 7 and 8 with a large symposium with speakers and panel discussions focusing on the promise of AI to accelerate progress in theoretical physics. These talks will address the possibilities and challenges associated with AI ‘doing science.’ The event will bring together physicists, engineers, AI researchers, and entrepreneurs to collect different perspectives on what the future of theoretical physics will look like, the engineering challenges we should expect along the way, what tools and collaborations will be needed to help get us there, and what exciting steps are already underway.
Registration for the symposium is available on the symposium website.
The symposium will be followed by a workshop on April 9, 10, 11 focusing on developing a theoretical framework for AI enabling the development of reliable, robust, and interpretable AI models for physics. Recent advances in theoretical foundations of AI, inspired by techniques from string theory, quantum field theory (QFT), and statistical physics, have uncovered parallels between AI systems and physical theories, utilizing methods like renormalization group (RG) flows, Feynman path integrals etc. to deepen understanding of deep neural networks (DNNs), generative AI (e.g., LLMs and diffusion models), and scaling laws. Key topics include physics-informed optimization and learning, the role of RG and QFT for DNNs and generative AI, and the application of physics to AI interpretability. Through interdisciplinary dialogue, the event aims to foster collaborations, advance the theoretical foundations of AI, and explore its potential in areas like theoretical physics and mathematics.

Magnetic Fields Around Compact Objects Workshop
30 talks-Collection NumberC25019In the vicinity of neutron stars and black holes, where spacetime is strongly curved, magnetic fields can power many of the violent phenomena that we observe across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, from accretion and jet launching, to magnetar flares and pulsar emission. In the last decades, our theoretical understanding of the role of magnetic fields in these extreme environments has greatly improved through numerical simulations of magnetohydrodynamical fluids and charged kinetic particles; however, many open and important questions remain. Our observational capabilities and computational resources will keep growing dramatically in the next few years, allowing us to explore high-energy astrophysics in unprecedented regimes. Improving our knowledge of how magnetic fields, matter, and gravity interact with each other is a crucial piece in the new era of multimessenger astrophysics. This workshop will gather experts from a wide range of disciplines within physics and astrophysics to present state-of-the-art advances in theoretical models of magnetic fields and high-energy plasma in different contexts, from neutron star mergers to supermassive black holes, and from micro scales to macro scales. This workshop is sponsored in part by the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA).

Future Prospects of Intensity Interferometry
24 talks-Collection NumberC24046Recent advancements in photodetection technologies and spectroscopy hold the promise of transforming intensity interferometry, thereby revolutionizing observational Astronomy by enabling observations to resolve significantly fainter objects than currently possible. This workshop serves as a platform to unite experts in photodetection, theoretical and observational astronomy, as well as observers and theorists from diverse disciplines, to explore the multifaceted capabilities of intensity interferometry.
The workshop's focus spans three key objectives:
- Develop and disseminate novel ideas concerning science cases unique to intensity interferometry.
- Synthesize insights from observers and photodetector experts concerning the requisite technologies and experimental techniques which will allow for new science with intensity interferometry.
- Initiate a concentrated effort to propel the development of large telescope arrays dedicated to intensity interferometry.
This workshop will be exclusively organized in plenary sessions, providing ample time for engaging discussions among participants.

Causalworlds
63 talks-Collection NumberC24018Understanding causality is fundamental to science and inspires wide-ranging applications, yet there are several distinct notions of causation. Recently, there have been important developments on the role of causality in quantum physics, relativistic physics and their interplay. These have unearthed a plethora of fascinating open questions regarding the nature of causation, emergence of space-time structure and the limits of quantum information processing. At the same time, causal reasoning has become an important tool in machine learning and statistics, with applications ranging from big data to healthcare. This conference brings together experts from different areas of physics working on questions related to causality, as well as selected researchers who bridge the gap between fundamental research and current industrial applications. The aim of the conference is to provide a venue for cross-pollination of these ideas through scientific exchange between these communities. The conference will focus on the following facets of causality:
• Quantum and classical causal inference
• Indefinite causal order and quantum reference frames
• Causality in quantum field theory and quantum gravity
• Experiments and applications of causality

Registration deadline: 28 August 2024
Conference: 16-20 September 2024 Update: The submission deadline has been extended to 31st May 2024 for
papers which clearly justify their relevance for the following three
topics: 1) classical causal inference, 2) causality in relativistic physics (including quantum field theory and quantum gravity) and 3) experiments in causality. As we have received a sufficiently high number of submissions on the remaining topics (particularly indefinite causality and quantum causal models), the original deadline of 24th May still holds for submissions in this category. :: :: ::

50 Years of Horndeski Gravity: Exploring Modified Gravity
46 talks-Collection NumberC24019Recent years have seen a flood of new data, from gravitational wave observations of merging black holes and neutron stars to precision probes of cosmology, which allow for unprecedented tests of our understanding of gravity. Going hand-in-hand with this, there has been significant recent progress on the theoretical side in terms of formulating modified theories of gravity, and using them to make detailed predictions, including in the nonlinear and dynamical regime, which can be confronted with the observations.
We are excited to announce a landmark conference that plans to delve into the forefront of research on modified theories of gravity and brings together leading experts from different disciplines including observational astrophysicists, numerical relativists, cosmologists and mathematical physicists to explore the present status of modified theories of gravity and envision their future theoretical development and implications for observations.
This conference is also timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of pioneering work in this area carried out by Gregory Horndeski in the Waterloo Mathematical Physics Community. Hosted jointly by Perimeter Institute and the University of Waterloo, this conference will serve as a forum for researchers from different disciplines to exchange ideas at the cutting
edge of gravitational physics.
Presented by:
Sponsored in part by Gravity Theory Trust
:: :: ::Topics:
• Modified Gravity Theories: Theoretical Framework and Models
