Topics will include:
String theory (physics and geometry): topological strings, black holes, non-critical strings, string theory and integrable spin chains. Topological quantum field theory: perturbative topological quantum field theory and deformation quantization, topological quantum field theory and invariants of manifolds.
Matrix models and matrix integrals ( random matrices): matrix models in string theory and quantum field theory, random matrices and growth models. Quantum field theory: integrable non-conformal perturbations of conformal field theory, boundary perturbations.
