Venue
Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden
Scope
Long-range interacting systems, characterized by an interaction that decays as an inverse power-law in the separation between the system constituents, abound in nature, e.g., gravitational and Coulomb interactions. In the last decades, the field has grown significantly, both in the statistical physics community where the peculiar dynamic and thermodynamic properties of such systems have been unveiled, and in atomic and quantum many-body physics community, where long-range interactions have become accessible in ion-trap experiments, ultracold atomic gas, cavity quantum electrodynamics, etc. The interplay between the effects of non-local interactions and the quantum dynamics of correlation has developed as a subject of growing interest, in particular, in complex materials featuring unconventional behaviour of topological phases and non-trivial non-equilibrium dynamics. A major emphasis has been on developing and investigating tools and techniques, both theoretical and experimental, to address the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of long-range systems.
The conference aims to bring together leading experts working in the field of long-range interacting systems and quantum dynamics, with applications to complex quantum systems and materials. Long-range interactions are accessible in several quantum platforms, and this new recent opportunity is crucial for current theoretical and experimental investigations, with major implications to the study and control of quantum dynamics. The development of an interaction between the long-range, the non-equilibrium, and the complex materials communities is a timely task, the one which we aim to achieve in this meeting.
