Observers, calculable models, and path integrals in cosmology

→ Europe/Zurich
Bernoulli Center for Fundamental Studies, EPFL

GA 3 34, Bâtiment GA, Station 5, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
Description

This is the second event in a series, following up on the 2026 workshop Observers, wormholes and complex saddles in cosmology.

(Details will follow.)

The goal of this workshop is to bring together a representative part of the research community responsible for the exciting recent progress on non-perturbative definitions of observables in quantum gravity, solvable models of cosmology, and the gravitational path integral, which spans several fields.
