Explore advanced topics in string theory through two specialized lectures examining superstring amplitudes on AdS spaces and matrix string theory. Learn from Luis Fernando Alday as he discusses the intricacies of superstring amplitudes in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime, covering the mathematical frameworks and physical implications of these calculations in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Discover insights from Xi Yin's commentary on matrix string theory, which provides a non-perturbative formulation of string theory through matrix models and their connections to D-brane dynamics. Gain exposure to cutting-edge research in theoretical physics as part of the ICTP-SAIFR - Perimeter Program on Fundamental Aspects of String Theory, designed for researchers and advanced students working in string theory, quantum gravity, and related areas of high-energy theoretical physics.
