Lectures & Seminars

This school will be organized in a relatively short set of long lectures supplemented by more specialized lectures and seminars, presentations by participants, and a poster session. The lectures will focus on computational and methodological aspects of the research, and the lecturers will also propose numerical hands-on exercises. Students are invited to practice during the afternoons.

A poster session open to all participants will also be organized.  

Main lecture topics will cover:

  • Gross-Pitaevskii and classical field theory
  • Quantum Monte Carlo methods in the continuum: Zero temperature methods and finite temperature path integrals
  • Quantum Monte Carlo calculations on a Lattice
  • Dynamical mean field theory
  • Density matrix renormalization group
  • Exact diagonalization/ Series expansions
  • Diagrammatic Monte Carlo
  • Tensor network algorithms
