International Workshop on
Anderson Localization in Nonlinear and Many-Body Systems
March 16 - 20, 2009
Scientific coordinators:
Boris Altshuler (Columbia University)
Sergej Flach (MPI PKS Dresden, Germany)
Arkady Pikovsky (Universität Potsdam, Germany)
Organisation:
Renate Seidel (MPI PKS Dresden, Germany)
The workshop aims at an active and lively discussion of experimental and
theoretical results in the field of disorder and
interactions and related topics. In particular, we address the
question, whether excitations will localize or delocalize, if all
single particle eigenstates are localized, but
interactions/nonlinearities are present. It is
aiming at a deep understanding of the robustness of Anderson
localization.
Topics include | ||
- many body interactions and disorder for fermions and bosons | ||
- nonlinear systems with disorder | ||
- conductivity | ||
- statistical properties of eigenstates | ||
- weakly nonintegrable systems and Arnold diffusion | ||
- equipartition in finite systems | ||
- BEC in optical speckle and random potentials | ||
- light propagation in nonlinear disordered optical media | ||
- multidimensionality, glasses, satisfiability, and adiabatic quantum computation |
