AIMS
Following on from the summer schools in Mathematical Statistical Physics organized in Les Houches in 1984 and 2005, we are offering a new edition that will present the advances made over the last twenty years. Among the topics covered: random geometry, disordered systems, graph theory, all fields recently crowned by several Fields Medals and Nobel Prizes.
Topics
Random Geometry and Conformal Invariance
Kosterlitz-Thouless Transitions and Height Models
Disordered Models and Spin Glasses
Graphs, Hypergraphs, and Combinatorics
Non-equilibrium Dynamics
Ecology and Evolution
Coding and Cellular Automata
Sandpiles and Glauber Dynamics
Format
6 lectures of 5 hours (each lecture is split in four 1h20 sessions of teaching/exercises).
15 invited talks (1h, questions included).
6 contributed talks (30min, questions included).
Invited Lecturers
• Thierry Bodineau (Laboratoire Alexander Grothendieck, IHES)
- Macroscopic theory of fluctuations and interacting-particle systems
• Hugo Duminil-Copin (UniGe and IHES)
- Ising model on cubic lattices
• Alison Etheridge (University of Oxford)
- Natural selection in spatially-structured populations
• Ivailo Hartarsky (CNRS, ICJ Université Lyon 1)
- Kinetically-constrained models
• Piet Lammers (CNRS, LPSM Sorbonne Université)
- Kosterlitz-Thouless transition: links between the XY model and height functions
• Christian Maes (KU Leuven)
- Out-of-equilibrium dynamics
Public
The Doctoral Training School is primarily intended for doctoral and master students, post-docs and other younger researchers willing to learn these topics, but applications from more experienced researchers will also be considered.
