Description
The Aim of the activity is to provide pedagogical treatment of these subjects in the form of a series of lectures by individual speakers. The activity is intended for theoretical physicists or mathematicians with knowledge of quantum field theory, general relativity and string theory. 
 
TOPICS: 
 
• Dynamics of Supersymmetric Theories 
• Entanglement Entropy and Holography 
• Integrability in N=4 Yang-Mills Theory 
• Higher Spins and Holography
