Seminars

On an irregular basis various Special Seminars take place at the MPQ. The seminars are organized by scientists of our divisions, administration or staff representatives. The location will be announced with the event.

Topological effects in dissipative quantum systems (Marcel Wagner)

The concept of topological order seems to be understood on a high level in dissipation-free quantum systems, i.e. in absence of a reservoir or bath. [more]
Detailed program with list of speakers [more]

Symmetry reduction induced by anyon condensation: a tensor network approach (José Garre Rubio)

Topological ordered phases are related to changes in the properties of their quasi-particle excitations (anyons). [more]

Designing quantum spin-orbit-coupled materials: a source for exotic excitations (Prof. Roser Valenti)

In the search for novel materials' properties, the generation and manipulation of highly entangled quantum states is a grand challenge of solid state research. [more]

The emergence of contractility in biological fiber networks (Dr. P. Ronceray)

Large-scale force generation is essential for biological functions such as cell motility, embryonic development, and muscle contraction. [more]
