Dynamical Probes for Exotic States of Matter

International Workshop
27 - 30 March 2017

This workshop aims at bringing together leading scientists working on dynamical and non-equilibrium properties of quantum many body systems. Dynamical properties have shown to provide characteristic fingerprints of exotic phases of matter such as topologically ordered and fractionalized phases. Furthermore, quantum matter out of equilibrium can exhibit novel phases that cannot occur in equilibrium settings.

Topics include

  • Dynamical properties of quantum spin liquids
  • Floquet engineering of novel orders and their dynamics
  • Dynamics of the many-body localization transition
  • Many-body localization beyond one-dimension
  • Efficient algorithms for the simulation of quantum many-body dynamics
  • Decoherence in open systems and stability of quantum orders
  • Diagnostics of topological phases and transitions
  • Dynamics of fractionalised particles
