DESCRIPTION:This Summer School is aimed at advanced doctoral students\, po
 stdoctoral fellows and junior researchers working in the field of high ene
 rgy theory. It is the 2026 edition in a biennial series of Advanced Summe
 r Schools in High Energy Theoretical Physics\, which have been held tradit
 ionally in Cargèse or Les Houches. Recent developments in string theory\,
  quantum gravity and quantum field theory will be reviewed in pedagogical 
 fashion\, along with emerging relations to quantum information\, quantum m
 any body systems\,  cosmology\, etc.\n \nLecturers:\n\nMicha Berkooz\, W
 eizmann Institute of Science\, Rehovot : "Quantum Chaos and Quantum Gravit
 y in the Double Scaled SYK model"\nScott Collier\, Syracuse University\, U
