Organized by: Alexander Abanov, Sriram Ganeshan, Kristan Jensen, and Vadim Oganesyan Recent years have witnessed significant progress in understanding the behavior of quantum many-body systems without relying on the age-old assumptions of thermalization or equilibration. Qualitatively new and different real-time dynamics have been found in fields ranging from condensed matter systems to strongly interacting theories … Read more

Workshop: Geometry of Manifolds October 23-27, 2017 Organized by: Xiuxiong Chen, Claude LeBrun, Blaine Lawson, and John Morgan During the week of October 23-27, 2017, the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics will host a workshop concerning canonical geometric structures on differentiable manifolds. Key researchers in differential geometry, gauge theory, complex geometry, symplectic geometry, and … Read more

Organized by: Uriel Frisch, Konstantin Khanin and Rahul Pandit Some of the most basic questions relating to the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations for the motion of a 3D incompressible fluid are still open. There is a strong belief that answers to these questions cannot be obtained without creative use of geometric/Lagrangian and measure-theoretic/probabilistic tools. This … Read more

Workshop: Wonders of Broken Integrability October 2-6, 2017 Organized by: Fabian Essler, Giuseppe Mussardo and Alexei Tsvelik Quantum Integrability is one of the most significant concepts of modern science, characterized by a wide spectrum of applications and fascinating mathematical properties. Striking advances in the fields of ultra-cold atomic gases, non-equilibrium and thermalization properties of many-particle … Read more

The aim of the workshop is to advance research in the fields of Flavor Tagging and Higgs searches/measurements with b-jets in final states, involving the respective working groups of the ATLAS Collaboration. One day of the workshop will be devoted to open sessions with both theoretical physicists and experimentalists attending. This joint workshop is the … Read more

Organized By: David Eisenbud, David Morrison, Irena Peeva A matrix factorization of an element w in a polynomial or power series ring (more generally, in a local or graded regular commutative ring) is a pair of square matrices (A, B) of the same size such that AB = BA = wE, where E is an … Read more

Organized by: Lukasz Fidkowski, Dan Freed, and Anton Kapustin Previously, phases of matter were mostly classified based on symmetry principles, or purely on the basis of topological properties. Recent developments however have highlighted the interplay of symmetry and topology as manifested by topological insulators and other symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases, and by symmetry enrichment … Read more
