Explore advanced theoretical physics concepts in this conference talk featuring two distinguished speakers presenting cutting-edge research in string theory and AdS/CFT correspondence. Learn about the scattering properties of open and closed strings in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime through Fernando Alday's presentation, which delves into the mathematical frameworks and physical implications of string interactions in curved backgrounds. Discover the remarkable computational power and theoretical insights provided by D-instantons in Xi Yin's talk on their "unreasonable effectiveness," examining how these non-perturbative objects contribute to our understanding of quantum field theory and string theory. Gain insights into bootstrap methods and their applications to modern theoretical physics problems, as part of the comprehensive Bootstrap 2025 program organized by ICTP-SAIFR in collaboration with Perimeter Institute.
