Higher Differential Geometry

International conference, organized by Matthias Ludewig and Konrad Waldorf (both University of Greifswald)

The international conference "Higher Differential Geometry" brings together researches from around the world to share recent developments and news about differential-geometric aspects of higher structures. Topics to be discussed include:

• Differential cohomology and charge quantization
• Higher gauge theory and M-theory
• Higher symmetries
• Representations of higher groups
• Smooth functorial field theories
• Stolz-Teichner program
• T-Duality
