Description of the School:
The purpose of the school is to introduce young scientists to the study of quantum systems in low dimensions. In the past years, this field has been the subject of numerous theoretical and experimental works. Among the most notorious, let us mention, in condensed matter, the integer and fractional quantum Hall effects, quantum spin chains, polymers, mesoscopic systems in low dimensions. These topics require a wide range of modern theoretical methods, such as field theory, statistical mechanics, and topology. The quantum Hall effect will be a central topic; related subjects such as anyons, one dimensional statistics, statistical mechanics of polymers, etc... will also be discussed.
The school is open to advanced graduate students and young researchers. Attendance is limited to 50 students.
