15th Joburg Workshop on String Theory: Holography, Chaos, and Complexity

8–13 December 2025

This workshop is intended to stimulate interaction among researchers working on holography, quantum chaos, and complexity, including applications such as AdS/CMT. Holography, rooted in the duality between string theory and gauge theory, stands as one of the most profound insights of modern theoretical physics. It continues to deepen our understanding of black holes, information, and emergent spacetime. The meeting hopes to bring together experts and young researchers to discuss recent progress and open questions in holography, string theory, and related areas.
