Organized By: Ivan Corwin, Columbia University Evita Nestoridi, Stony Brook University Dominik Schmid, University of Bonn The asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) is a central model in research on integrable probability and interacting particle systems. It is one of the most prominent examples of a stochastic interface growth model, which gives under a suitable weakly … Read more

Organized by: Daniel Halpern-Leistner (Cornell) Melissa Liu (Columbia) Mark McLean (Stony Brook) Tony Pantev (UPenn) Daniel Pomerleano (UMass Boston) This Workshop is focused on quantum invariants in birational geometry. The main themes under consideration will be the behavior of quantum cohomology and the Fukaya category under birational transformations. The workshop will also examine Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev-Yu’s recent … Read more
Organized by Yin-Chen He, Zohar Komargodski, Leonardo Rastelli, and Slava Rychkov Conformal field theories (CFTs) represent a vital class of quantum field theories with wide-ranging applications, from quantum gravity to critical phenomena in both classical and quantum matter. CFTs in 3D and higher dimensions are strongly interacting, thus requiring the employment of non-perturbative tools. One such … Read more
