10th Tux Workshop on Quantum Gravity
The next Tux winter workshop on quantum gravity is scheduled for February 13-17, 2023 in Tux (Austria).
We are aware of the fact that the pandemic is not over yet and that some of you, for whatever reason, might have difficulties to travel. Therefore, we will try to set up again a hybrid workshop as we did last February. In order to keep the meeting rather informal, however, remote access will require previous registration.

Further Information
- Scope
-
The aim is to bring together experts on loop quantum gravity and related topics. In general, the topics of the workshop include
- All approaches to loop quantum gravity (e.g. canonical, covariant, GFT)
- Other approaches to quantum gravity and their relation to LQG
- LQG related quantum gravity phenomenology
- Quantum gravity topics of general interest
- GR and differential geometry topics of general interest
For the upcoming workshop, we particularly invite contributions on
- Quantum black holes
- Fundamental structures of LQG
First and foremost, we would like to invite you to take part in the meeting and to submit a talk.
- Covid-19
-
At present, we are not aware of any Covid restrictions in Austria, except for some mask mandates. Also, we do not expect that the level of restrictions will reach
again that of previous years, unless there will pop up particular virus variants.
Nevertheless, anticipating rising infection figures in the first months of 2023, there might reappear minor restrictions like an extension of mask mandates, e.g.,
to public transport or indoor meetings. Independently of any legal requirements, we strongly recommend to wear a mask during indoor events.
Please note that all the information we have provided here, is informal and not legally binding. Also we will not be able to communicate any future changes in the
rules. However, if we do become aware of some relevant changes, we will let you know.(All information as of November 1, 2022.)
