Course Description

Overview

Explore the intersection of conformal field theory and holography in this 46-minute conference talk by Douglas Stanford from Stanford University. Delve into the concept of "Fake geometry from algebra" as part of the Gravity from algebra: modern field theory methods for holography conference held at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Discover how recent developments in conformal field theory language, including insights from the conformal bootstrap program, are applied to the foundations of holography and quantum gravity. Examine the relationship between consistency conditions in quantum gravity and conformal field theory, and investigate their potential connections to string/M-theory. Gain insights into topics such as large N bootstrap, holographic CFTs, gravitational effective field theory, supersymmetry in holography, low-dimensional holography, quantum chaos, black holes, gravitational path integrals, and the relationship between S-matrices and CFT correlators in the context of holography beyond AdS.
