From black holes to the cosmos: Matt Visser’s journey through space and time
SISSA (Miramare Campus)
This conference honors the scientific legacy of Matt Visser, whose pioneering work has profoundly influenced our understanding of general relativity, quantum field theory in curved spacetime, wormholes, energy conditions, analogue gravity, and beyond. Gathering colleagues, collaborators, and students from around the world, the meeting will highlight recent developments at the interface of geometry, gravitation, and quantum theory, while celebrating Visser's distinctive contributions to these fields. The conference will be hosted in the Aula Magna of SISSA Miramare Campus.
