Solving Holographic Theories

For decades the AdS/CFT correspondence and the BFSS matrix model have in principle given non-perturbative constructions of quantum gravity. In practice, however, the dual theories are strongly coupled which has impeded progress. Recently, powerful non-perturbative methods such as conformal bootstrap, supersymmetric localization, and matrix bootstrap have opened the door to solving these dual theories, and thus their quantum gravity duals. This conference will bring together experts on holography, string theory, and non-perturbative methods to discuss the emerging field of non-perturbative quantum gravity.
