This will be the third in an ongoing series of annual summer schools in theoretical physics held in Canada. The first and second editions of these schools will be held at the University of British Columbia. These schools are intended to educate graduate students and young researchers on current
This mini-workshop will be the next of an ongoing series of one-day meetings between researchers at Perimeter, CITA and University of Toronto. These meetings are held to share new ideas and encourage interactions in our common fields of interest: superstrings, cosmology, particle theory and quantum
String phenomenology is an emerging research area in the rich interdisciplinary boundaries of string theory, particle physics, and cosmology. Although research in string phenomenology is motivated by physical questions, progress often comes from connections to more formal and mathematical aspects of
This meeting will be an international gathering of leading researchers to discuss the latest developments in our understanding of "mirror symmetry", a surprising relation that can exist between two Calabi-Yau manifolds. It happens that two such geometries may look very different, but are
The goal of the workshop is to bring together Quantum Gravity researchers working in the Americas to share their approaches and results, draw connections between research efforts, develop a broader perspective on the issues, focus on outstanding problems, foster an interactive community, and set
Over the past five years, there has been much interest in a new kind of "unspeakable" quantum information which is to regular quantum information what a classical clock or gyroscope is to a classical message. While the latter is indifferent to the physical nature of the information carriers, the
