23rd Claude Itzykson Conference: Statistical Physics of Disordered and Complex Systems: A Tribute to Cirano De Dominicis

4 juin 2018, 08:30 → 6 juin 2018, 18:00 Europe/Paris

Bloch Amphitheater (Institut de Physique Théorique, CEA-Saclay, France)

 

The Itzykson Conference is held every year at the Institut de Physique Théorique in Saclay to honour the memory of Claude Itzykson.

The 23rd edition of this conference, will take place on June 4-6, 2018. This session will additionally be dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague Cirano De Dominicis, who passed away in April 2017. The conference will be built upon themes close to his heart:

- Quantum Systems

- Out of Equilibrium Statistical Physics

- Disordered Systems and Spin Glasses

- Interdisciplinary Systems

 

Organizing committee: Giulio Biroli, Edouard Brézin, Henri Orland and Laure Sauboy (secretary).
Sponsors and benefactors: IPhT (CEA and CNRS), DRF, LabEx LMH
