About

This workshop will explore recent developments in holographic duality, ranging from the original AdS/CFT correspondence to ongoing efforts in extending holography to flat and de Sitter spacetimes. The event aims to bring together leading experts, early-career researchers, and students to foster discussion and collaboration, with the goal of deepening our understanding of holography across diverse settings. The program will feature a balanced mix of pedagogical review lectures, in-depth technical talks, interactive discussion sessions, and a gong show.

Venue and Accommodation

    The workshop will take place at the Feza Gürsey Center for Mathematics and Physics, Boğaziçi University, Kandilli Campus, İstanbul, Türkiye.

    One of the closest hotels to the workshop venue is Küçüksu Öğretmenler Evi (Teachers House). The prices would be the ones listed under "sivil" which means without the teacher or government worker reduction.

    Feza Gürsey Center is about 10 minutes by bus from Küçüksu, the line is 14R and the first stop is next to the Küçüksu Teachers house, across from the Küçüksu Pier. The link for the timetable for the bus can be found here.

    One can also look for places from where you can reach "Küçüksu" or "Anadoluhisarı" piers by boats. From "Aşiyan" there is a very frequent boat line. Üsküdar center is also an option but then the commute will involve 2 boat rides before the bus ride. It may be easier to find more hotels or options on Airbnb around these locations. The official webpage for the boat lines is here.
