Description
This workshop brings together international experts in cosmology, particle physics, quantum field theory, general relativity, and optimal transport (OT) to foster cross-disciplinary innovation. The goal is to explore how OT theory and its mathematical, statistical, and computational tools can address modern physics challenges, and how physical problems can inspire new developments in OT. The event includes a poster session and offers opportunities for networking and collaboration across fields.
