Thermal conformal field theories lie at the crossroads of quantum field theory, statistical physics, and quantum gravity. Through the AdS/CFT correspondence, thermal states in strongly coupled CFTs map to black hole geometries in higher-dimensional spacetimes; at the same time, thermal CFTs play a central role in characterizing universal aspects of quantum matter, critical dynamics, complexity and entanglement at finite temperature. This five-day workshop aims to bring together researchers with different perspectives on the subject, to stimulate collaborations across approaches ranging from bootstrap to lattice and reinforcing a growing community.
