The Sphere Packing and Beyond

18 Nov 2022

Conference at CERN with our member Maryna Viazovska (EPFL) on Monday 28th of November 2022.

In this lecture she will talk about the history of the sphere packing problem in different dimensions, the concept of high dimensions and its role in mathematics, and also about new unexpected connections between the sphere packing in high dimensions and the theory of quantum gravity.

the conference will be held in English

Free entrance | Mandatory registration

Recording available online after the event.
