The main scientific interest of the Theory of Quantum Systems group is related with the modeling of nano- and mesoscopic systems. The area of interest includes unconventional states of matter in highly correlated electron systems (high-temperature superconductors and magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene), solid hydrogen phases (molecular and its metallization), as well as metallic nanofims and oxide interfaces.
How do isolated quantum systems behave when prepared in a highly non-equilibrium state? How can such quantum systems avoid the ubiquitous relaxation to a thermal equilibrium? How can we gain novel insights into properties of quantum matter using modern nonequilibrium probes? These and other open questions in the field of quantum non-equilibrium matter are the focus of the Serbyn group.
The Seiringer group develops new mathematical tools for the rigorous analysis of many-particle systems in quantum mechanics, with a special focus on exotic phenomena in quantum gases, like Bose-Einstein condensation and superfluidity.
“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” Aristotle’s saying also holds true in many systems studied in quantum physics. Mikhail Lemeshko investigates how macroscopic quantum phenomena emerge in ensembles of atoms and molecules.
