This school, with some 50 odd expected participants, aims at introducing master or Phd students and post docs from Colombia or nearby South American countries, to active topics of research lying at the threshhold between theoretical physics and mathematics.

It runs over three weeks, so as to encourage interactions between the speakers and participants, enabling them to set up long term scientific interactions.

The specificity of this school is twofold. Firstly, like the ones which preceded it, its interdisciplinary feature which mixes mathematics and physics, makes it a priviliged setup for interactions between the two communities, a rare enough feature for it to also be appreciated by speakers. Secondly, another specificity is the active involvement of the participants who are asked throughout the school to prepare talks on specific points of certain lectures. They are thus actively involved in a learning process during the school.
