Quantum field theory (QFT) is the framework which best describes our world, yet our understanding of it is incomplete and remains one of the most important mathematical challenges. Aided by supersymmetry and string theory important progress has been made in computing exact quantities in QFT, uncovering some of its underlying mathematical structure. One particular area which has seen rapid progress over the last few years are strongly coupled superconformal QFTs (SCFTs). Many tools have been developed to compute their (generalized) global symmetries, their moduli space geometries, how they are connected through RG flows, etc.
The workshop will bring together experts in the field of SCFTs to report on most cutting edge progress and identify new directions and possibilities, addressing some of the deepest questions in QFT.
