23rd European String Workshop: Strings, Geometry and Black Holes

The Mathematics department hosted the 23rd European String Workshop in April 2018, entitled Strings, Geometry, and Black Holes. This was an international conference with about 190 participants, and was supported by Imperial College London, King's College London, and the University of Oxford. It focussed on various aspects of string theory, gauge-gravity duality, black holes, quantum field theory, supersymmetry and the diverse connections with geometry.

String Theory in London 2016

The Mathematics department hosted a conference in the period 29 August - 3 September 2016, entitled String Theory in London 2016: Supersymmetry, Geometry, and Holography. This was an international conference with about 90 participants which focussed on latest developments in various aspects of string theory.

ICFT 2016 - UK Meeting on Integrable and Conformal Field Theory

The UK Meeting on Integrable and Conformal Field Theory is an annual event, started at King's in 1997 and held around the UK every year since then, returning to King's in 2001, 2007 and most recently in 2016. This brings together the UK community in integrable and conformal field theory with international speakers to discuss the recent developments in this field. In 2016, it was sponsored by the London Mathematical Society and the Mathematical and Theoretical Physics group of the institute of Physics.
