Welcome to our website! Our group is part of the Center for Theoretical Physics at the Institut Polytechnique de Paris. We conduct theoretical research on the dynamics of correlated quantum systems, in connection to ultracold atom gases and quantum simulation. In a nutshell, our work aims at characterizing novel quantum phases of matter and the associated phase transitions, understand transport properties, and develop theoretical approaches.

The Summer School, organized by Dmitry Abanin, Laurent Sanchez-Palencia, and Marco Schiro, is now open. It is one of two long schools (1 month) organized in Les Houches during the summer of 2019. The non-equilibrium dynamics of correlated quantum systems is currently one of the most active in quantum matter physics, at the interface of condensed matter, atomic physics, statistical physics, and complex systems. The experimental and theoretical progress of recent years has revolutionized this field with considerable challenges for quantum technologies. Lectures will be delivered by internationally renowned teachers:
Fabien Alet, Immanuel Bloch, Leticia Cugliandolo, Eugene Demler, Thierry Giamarchi, Mikhail Lukin, Subir Sachdev, Laurent Sanchez-Palencia, Jon Simon, Frank Verstraete, and Peter Zoller.
They will train a new generation of promising students and young researchers to this emerging field.

Annoucement: The Summer School, organized by Thierry Giamarchi, Giacomo Roati, and Laurent Sanchez-Palencia, will take place at the Institut d'Etudes Scientifiques de Cargese. It is located on the west cost of the beautiful Corsica island in the south of France, near by the city of Ajaccio. The place enjoins a great landscape and a direct access to the sea. The wheather is usually fantastic in June and July.
