Chaos and complexity of quantum motion

Professor Dr. Tomaz Prosen
Physics Department, Faculty of mathematics and physics
University of Ljubljana

Abstract: The problem of characterizing complexity of quantum dynamics - in particular of locally interacting chains of quantum particles - will be reviewed and discussed from several different perspectives: (i) stability of motion against external perturbations and decoherence, (ii) efficiency of quantum simulation in terms of classical computation and entanglement production in operator spaces, (iii) quantum transport, relaxation to equilibrium and quantum mixing, and (iv) computation of quantum dynamical entropies. Discussions of all these criteria will be confronted with the established criteria of integrability or quantum chaos, and sometimes quite surprising conclusions are found. Some conjectures and interesting open problems in ergodic theory of the quantum many problem are suggested.

Seminarsko predavanje (v angleškem jeziku) bo v petek 1. junija 2007 ob 15:15 uri v seminarski sobi CAMTP na Krekovi 2, pritlicje desno. Vljudno vabljeni vsi zainteresirani, tudi študentje.
