"Geometry and Physics of the String Theory Landcape"
Focus Semester in the summer term 2014
During the focus semester, there will be several courses and seminars devoted to the geometry and physics of string theory. In addition, we will have several special lecture series and talks given by visiting scientists. Student seminar: String Compactifications Lecture course: Conformal Field Theory "What is ...?"-seminar String Theory Journal Club Lecture series: "Geometry and Topology in Physics" Oberseminar: String Theory and Beyond the Standard Model Oberseminar: Conformal Field Theory Interdisciplinary workshop: Geometry and Physics of F-theory Heidelberg Lecture Series in Mathematics and Physics Heidelberg Lecture Series in Mathematics and Physics
