Online Workshop "Quantum Gravity and Cosmology"
(dedicated to A.D. Sakharov's centennial)
June 4-8, 2021
Conveners: Andrei Barvinsky (Lebedev Inst., Moscow), Dmitry Nesterov (Lebedev Inst., Moscow)
International workshop "Quantum Gravity and Cosmology" is dedicated to centennial jubilee of A.D.Sakharov and embraces the areas of quantum field theory, quantum gravity and cosmology that were pioneered and advanced by Sakharov at the dawn of these subjects. The main objective of the workshop is to assess our current understanding of the quantization of gravity, its applications in the physics of early and present day Universe, including inflation theory and dark energy problem, black hole physics and the problem of information loss, and also to discuss the observational status of these subjects and their interplay with recent advances in effective field theory, higher spin and string theory.
Presentations and links to talk recordings are also available via the Timetable.
