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.

Efficient representation of fully many-body localized systems using tensor networks (Dr. T. Wahl)

Date: Mar 15, 2017
Time: 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM (Local Time Germany)
Speaker: Dr. Thorsten Wahl
University of Oxford, Department of Physics
Room: Herbert Walther Lecture Hall
Host: MPQ, Theory Division

Many-body localization (MBL) is currently an intensely studied topic and characterized by the fact that certain strongly disordered systems fail to thermalize. For sufficiently strong disorder in one dimension, all eigenstates of MBL systems fulfill the area law of entanglement. [more]
