The Division of Theoretical Physics is part of the Department of Physics and Astronomy.
The research in theoretical physics spans a large spectrum of physical problems, from the origin of the universe, where both the forces and matter are represented by oscillating strings, via proteins that fold and form knots, to the structure of the particles colliding in our accelerators.

The borderline between theoretical physics and mathematics has seen a remarkable progress over the last 20 years, with gauge theory, string theory, 4-manifold topology, Floer homology theories, etc. The seminar aims at increasing the interaction between the two diciplines.
Jointly organized by Department of Mathematics and Department of Physics and Astronomy.
Organizers: Tobias Ekholm and Maxim Zabzine
