Workshop on strong dynamics beyond QCD

3 Dec 2024, 10:00 → 4 Dec 2024, 17:00 Asia/Taipei

SC353-2 (Dec. 3) & SC427 (Dec. 4) (Science building 3, NYCU)

This workshop brings together high-energy and condensed-matter theorists with expertise on non-perturbative methods in quantum field theory and critical phenomena.   Scheduled with ample time for discussion, we hope to create opportunities for exchanges amongst participants from HEP and CMT communities.

* Registration deadline: 12h00 Friday the 22nd of November 2024

   Gert Aarts (Swansea University, UK)
       An application of Random Matrix Theory beyond physics: stochastic gradient descent

   Pochung Chen (NTHU, Taiwan)
       Extraction of conformal data in critical 2D classical models using Tensor Networks Renormalisation

   Dimitrios Giataganas (NSYSU, Taiwan)
       Holographic time-like entanglement entropy

   Deog Ki Hong (Pusan National University, South korea)
       Revisiting chiral magnetic effects and axions

   Stefan Kirchner (NYCU, Taiwan)
       Dynamical scaling in metals at the border of magnetism -- why should one care?

   Daniel Nogradi (Eotvos University, Hungary)
       On the conformal window of SU(3)

   Johann Ostmeyer (University of Bonn, Germany)
       A quantum Monte-Carlo study of the conductivity in organic molecular semiconductors

   Maurizio Piai (Swansea University, UK)
       Progress toards calculability in models of new physics with composite particles
