The KMPB School 2025: D-branes in Physics & Mathematics is a one-week program which will offer introductory courses covering topics underlying the modern understanding of D-branes in string theory and their incarnations in mathematics. The school is organized by PhD students at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin with the support of the KMPB (Kolleg Mathematik Physik Berlin), an interdisciplinary center at HU whose community of research groups shares a mutual interest in mathematics and physics. In the spirit of the KMPB, the school aims at generating synergies between mathematicians and physicists and welcomes early career researchers (PhDs/PostDocs) in both fields.
Topics: string theory, mirror symmetry, D-branes, mathematical physics
