DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jordan François (University of Graz\, Austria)\, Lu
 crezia Ravera (Politecnico di Torino\, Italy)\, Vincenzo Antonelli (Polite
 cnico di Torino\, Italy)\n\n\nOn a mathematically foundational level\, our
  most successful physical theories (gauge field theories and general-relat
 ivistic theories\, which together constitute the framework of General-Rela
 tivistic Gauge Field Theory) are based on the differential geometry of co
 nnections on principal bundles. The topic of this conference school is Ge
 neral-Relativistic Gauge Field Theory: its mathematical foundations\, its 
 first principle conceptual and technical development\, state-of-the-art ap
 plications\, and model building.\n \nThe target of the school are PhD Stu
 dents and early career Post Doc\, but it can extend to Young Researchers a
 nd Senior Researchers who wish to deepen their understanding of the geomet
 ric\, technical and conceptual foundational aspects of General-Relativisti
 c Gauge Field Theory.\n \n\nThe Conference School will take place at Poli
 tecnico di Torino\, in Room Buzano\, at DISMA (Dipartimento di Scienze Ma
 tematiche "Giuseppe Luigi Lagrange")\, 3rd floor\, on 17-19 March 2026.\n\
 n\n \nThe program includes the following modules:\n \n\n[Module DG] Bund
 le Differential Geometry (DG) of Gauge Field Theory\, to provide the mathe
 matical and geometric tools underpinning classical gauge theories: Ehresma
 nn connection and Yang-Mills Gauge Field Theory\, Cartan connection and ga
 uge gravity\, twisted connections on field space and anomalies\, different
 ial geometry of field space and gauge-fixing\;\n[Module SR] Symmetry Reduc
 tion (SR) schemes – in particular\, the Dressing Field Method (DFM) and 
 its relational interpretation – in General-Relativistic Gauge Field Theo
 ry\, including state-of-the-art model building and applications (among whi
 ch\, e.g.\, General Relativity\, Supersymmetric Field Theories\, etc.)\;\n
 [Module AS] Asymptotic Symmetries (AS) and covariant phase space formalism
 \, with applications to electromagnetism and General Relativity\;\n[Module
  FA] Foundational Aspects (FA) of General-Relativistic Gauge Field Theory\
 , to allow a clearer understanding of the current state of general-relativ
 istic physics and gauge theories\, starting from first principles and conc
 eptual analysis.\n\n \nLecturers:\nPhilipp Berghofer (University of Graz\
 , Austria)\nJordan François (University of Graz\, Austria)\nMarc Geiller 
 (ENS de Lyon\, CNRS\, France)\nLucrezia Ravera (Politecnico di Torino\, It
 aly)\n \nThe event also features a call for abstracts for oral contributi
 ons by young researchers. For more details\, please see the Call for Abstr
 acts section on this website.\n \nThe Registration deadline is January 30
 th\, 2026\, at 3:00 PM CEST.\nThe Call for Abstracts deadline is January 3
