Entanglement and Dynamical Systems: September 7 – December 16, 2016
Organized By: Chris Herzog, Vladimir Korepin and Bruno Nachtergaele. Entanglement is the property of quantum states that most clearly distinguishes them from classical states. Entanglement is responsible for the fascinating effects in the low-temperature states of matter and the phase transitions between them that are the subject of much research in experimental and theoretical […]
Automorphic forms, mock modular forms and string theory: August 29 – September 30, 2016
Organized by: Terry Gannon, David Ginzburg, Axel Kleinschmidt, Stephen D. Miller, Daniel Persson, and Boris Pioline The purpose of this interdisciplinary program is to investigate connections between string theory and the theory of automorphic forms, modular forms and mock modular forms. This is an emergent field with a lot of potential for interdisciplinary collaborations. Recent […]
