Field theory has seen a recent surge in interest, largely due to the deveplopement in condensed matter systems and cold atoms. Application in systems like topological insulator , graphene , cold atoms etc. has brought realization of exotic field theoretical concepts like anomaly, index theorem and Dirac Fermions to the low energy domain. Presence of defects and natural curvature bring curved geometry and gravity also to this realm.
Hence, a gathering of like-minded researchers in these areas, together with experimentalists for pondaring about various subtle aspects of field theory and their possible applications is a worthwhile endeavour. This two days workshop aims to provide to the researchers precisely this avenues.
