DATE: 27 June 2018 to 13 July 2018

VENUE: Ramanujan Lecture Hall, ICTS Bangalore


This advanced level school is the ninth in the series. 

This is a pedagogical school, aimed at bridging the gap between masters-level courses and topics in statistical physics at the frontline of current research. It is intended for Ph.D. students, post-doctoral fellows and interested faculty members at the college and university level. The following courses will be offered.​

Preparatory​ lecturers by Abhishek​ Dhar​ ​(ICTS) and​ Sanjib​ Sabhapandit (RRI)
Stochastic​ density​ functional​ theory​ for​ interacting​ Brownian​ particles by David​ ​Dean​ (Bordeaux,​ France)
Mechanics​ of​ wrinkling,​ folding,​ and​ crumpling by Narayanan​ ​Menon​ (UMASS,​ USA)
Network Dynamics by Sandeep Krishna (NCBS) and Shashi Thutupalli (NCBS-ICTS)
Quantum​ computation by Peter​ ​Young​ (UCSC,​ USA)
Quantum​ chaos,​ random​ matrices​ and​ statistical​ physics by Arul​ ​Lakshminarayan​ (IIT​ Madras,​ Chennai)
Interacting​ particle​ systems by Anupam​​ Kundu​ (ICTS,​ Bangalore)
