Special Year 2013-14: Non-equilibrium Dynamics and Random Matrices - Seminar

An isolated quantum many-body system may be a reservoir that thermalizes its constituents. I will explore an example of the interplay of this thermalization and spontaneous symmetry-breaking, in the ferromagnetic phase of an infinite-range quantum...

Our goal is to explain how certain basic representation theoretic ideas and constructions encapsulated in the form of Macdonald processes lead to nontrivial asymptotic results in various `integrable'; probabilistic problems. Examples include dimer...

This will be a background talk on the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation and its universality class.

I will start with discussing the relation between a class of disorder-generated multifractals and logarithmically-correlated random fields and processes. An important example of the latter is provided by the so-called "\(1/f\) noise" which, in...

This will be a background talk on the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation and its universality class.

Previous studies of kinetic transport in the Lorentz gas have been limited to cases where the scatterers are distributed at random (e.g. at the points of a spatial Poisson process) or at the vertices of a Euclidean lattice. In this talk I will...

Fluctuations of the current of one dimensional non equilibrium diffusive systems are well understood. After a short review of the one dimensional results, the talk will try to show that the statistics of these fluctuations are exactly the same in...
