Modular forms, periods and scattering amplitudes
Thematic programme 11 February–12 April 2019 at the ETH Institute for Theoretical Studies
Over the last few years, iterated integrals on elliptic curves and of modular forms have shown up prominently both in mathematics and physics. The aim of the programme is to bring together experts on these integrals and related objects, both in physics in mathematics, with the grand goal of advancing the field via a cross-fertilisation between disciplines. The programme starts with a school with talks accessible to both mathematicians and physicists and ends with a workshop. There will be a number of visitors and further activities throughout the programme.
There will be ample time for discussion and collaboration among the particpants.
School 11-15 February 2019
The school included minicourses by Ruth Britto (Dublin), Claude Duhr (CERN), Javier Fresán (Ecole Polytechnique) and Nils Matthes (Oxford).
