Title:
Driven Quantum Many-body Systems at the Critical Point: Heating, Cooling, and Beyond
Speaker:
Abstract:
The study of non-equilibrium quantum many-body physics opens the door to new and exciting conceptual questions about thermalization, dynamics, universality and phase transitions beyond traditional condensed matter paradigms. These questions are strongly motivated by the rapid progress in ultra-cold atoms, trapped ions, superconducting qubits and so on that offer promising experimental platforms to investigate the non-equilibrium dynamics of quantum systems. The theoretical study of these interesting questions mainly relies on numerical tools, which are limited in their scope in both the system size and the time scale of evolution. It is desirable to find setups for non-equilibrium many-body dynamics that are nontrivial, universal, and exactly solvable.
