SFT 2022 - Lectures on Statistical Field Theories

APPLY deadline: 30 Nov, 2021

Abstract

The aim of the school is to bring together PhD students with interests in low-dimensional quantum field theory, conformal field theory and integrable models, and their applications to statistical mechanics and condensed matter systems, and to help them building a solid and specialized background on these subjects. The school provides sets of postgraduate lectures covering introductory topics as well as recent developments in the field.

The courses can be included in the the Ph.D. curricula of Italian Universities and abroad. If necessary, a final exam on the courses can be taken.

Topics

Mari Carmen Banuls (Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Garching): Introduction to tensor networks
Nigel Cooper (University of Cambridge): Quantum dynamics and topology
Valentina Ros (Université de Paris-Saclay): An introduction to (Many-Body) Localization
Subir Sachdev (Harvard University): The quantum phases of matter
Kareljan Schoutens (University of Amsterdam): Many-body physics and quantum computation
