ICCUB School 

In recent years, entanglement has become a central subject in the areas of quantum field theory and gravity. The goal of this school is to introduce Ph.D. students (and anyone interested) to the fundamental aspects of entanglement in these contexts. The school will involve four (4 or 5-hour) courses which will be delivered by renowned experts on the subject. The lectures will cover topics such as:  the general structure of entanglement entropy in QFT, operator algebras and modular theory, entanglement and black holes, entanglement in AdS/CFT, entanglement and symmetries, energy and entropy bounds, irreversibility theorems, and others.
