Mini-Workshop: New Directions in Correlated Quantum Systems

Abstract

The mathematical study of quantum many-body physics has seen significant breakthroughs in the past 15–20 years. Mathematical physicists have approached these systems from different perspectives with different methods. The mini-workshop aimed to connect two rapidly growing fields: the mathematical analysis of many-body systems in scaling regimes (which has led to precise asymptotic formulas of the ground state energy and time evolution, e.g., of Bose gases) and the study of strongly correlated quantum systems via Lieb-Robinson bounds (which provide fundamental insights into the spreading of quantum information).
