"After Equilibration"
What goes on after equilibration? The origin of the question is the following: the interior of black holes are expected to equilibrate long after the system is globally equilibrated, a condition that is dominated by its surface. Duality suggests we look at the corresponding quantum system: the natural question is what happens then to a quantum system at those long, post-equilibration times. Recently, with Xianyu Cao we proposed that large deviation theory is a natural answer.
About the seminar
The host city for the Quantum Seminar is Kharkiv, where we have a number of research institutions and universities with many researchers actively working in the field of quantum science and technology. The aims of the seminar are the following: to bring together Ukrainian and foreign scientists, specialists in Quantum Physics; to sustain motivation and enthusiasm of Ukrainian physicists; to motivate and educate the young generation of Ukrainian students and researchers.
The seminars are scheduled on Tuesdays, two times a month; the default start time is 16:00 (Ukraine time), though sometimes it may differ. The recommended duration for the talk is about 60 mins plus up to 40 mins of Q&A.
Organizers: Sergey N. Shevchenko, B. Verkin ILTPE of NASU and KSE, and Andrii G. Sotnikov, NSC KIPT and Karazin University.
