workshops

Organized by: Vincenzo Alba Jerome Dubail Mari-Carmen Banuls Aditi Mitra Anatoli Polkovniko The workshop will foster interactions among experts in quantum and classical simulation methods, quantum information, and tractable systems, to assess the state-of-the art of these questions, and propose benchmarks that may help answer it. First, the workshop will stimulate a complexity-informed exploration of … Read more

Organized by: Luigi Ambrosio (Pisa) Andrea Mondino (Oxford) Raquel Perales (CIMAT) Christina Sormani (CUNYGC and Lehman College) In the nearly twenty-five years since the publication of Ambrosio-Kirchheim’s seminal paper, Currents on Metric Spaces, there have been significant applications of this generalization of Geometric Measure Theory (GMT) that deepen our understanding of both Geometry and Physics. … Read more

Organized by: Sera Cremonini ( Lehigh University) Robin Karlsson (CERN) Pavel Kovtun (University of Victoria) Hong Liu (MIT) Andrei Parnachev (Trinity College Dublin) There have been exciting recent advancements in various aspects of holography, black hole physics, and thermal quantum matter. This progress underscores the need for a platform where researchers from these fields can … Read more

Organized by: David Auckly (Kansas State) Aliakbar Daemi (Washington Univ-St Louis) Olga Plamenevskaya (Stony Brook University) Daniel Ruberman (Brandeis) Nikolai Saveliev (University of Miami) In the 1980s, Donaldson introduced methods of Yang–Mills gauge theory in topology, with remarkable applications. By the 1990s, research largely shifted away from Donaldson theory to Seiberg–Witten theory, and, a few … Read more
