Workshop on BPS states

Recent progress in the study of BPS states in string theory and in supersymmetric field theories, as well as on the theory of topological recursion, gives hints towards profound connections with the exact WKB method from the mathematical study of differential equations with a large parameter, and the abelianisation of flat connections on Riemann surfaces. The goals of our workshop are to bring together some leading experts in the field to stimulate the interactions between these lines of research, and to introduce young researchers and PhD students to attractive topics of current research with a rich potential for further developments.

Topics: BPS states, topological recursion, exact WKB and abelianisation
