DY 36: Focus: Chaos and Correlation in Quantum Matter (joint session DY/TT)

Mittwoch, 14. März 2018, 09:30–12:15, EB 107

The irreversibility of dynamics of complex systems (”emergent arrow of time”) has been a point of controversy lasting over a century. At its heart lies the seeming contradiction between the intrinsic reversibility of the microscopic laws of nature and the manifestly time-irreversible behavior of macroscopic phenomena. Chaos plays a crucial role in resolving this paradox. The past decade has seen a great revival of interest in this question concerning the foundations of quantum statistical mechanics and how chaos arises in quantum manybody systems. It has been driven by theoretical findings involving the long sought demonstration that many-body localization (MBL) exists as well as the derivation of exact bounds on chaos. On the experimental side, significant advances have been made in the study of cold atomic gases which provide examples of closed macroscopic quantum systems for which the foundational questions of quantum statistical mechanics are especially relevant. The focus session will summarize recent advances in this very active field of studies.
