Mathematical and Numerical Methods, PHYS 777, September 9 - December 11, 2026
This course introduces mathematical and numerical tools that are useful for various fields of theoretical physics. In the numerical part of the course, students will develop introductory programming skills in both Python and Mathematica. The mathematical part of the course covers three main topics -
Beautiful Papers, September 1 - November 9, 2026
-9 talks C26032 Courses Condensed Matter Mathematical physics Quantum Fields and Strings Quantum InformationStructure: We will discuss 8 papers which had huge impact in physics. One week Instructor Pedro Vieira will discuss a paper; students should read it beforehand. One week later students discuss recent papers referring to that paper (20 min each student, ~ 3 presentations; at the end of the class -
Selected Advanced Topics in Quantum Information, QIC 891, September 15 - October 29
Lean-verified Quantum Information Theory, Sep 15 - Oct 1 Instructor: Rodolfo Reis Soldati We introduce formal theorem proving with the Lean 4 programming language, placing emphasis on developing Quantum Information Theory theorems and proofs. Formal proof writing is an increasingly important skill -
Quantum Theory (Core), PHYS 605, September 9 - October 23, 2026
The aim of the first part is to present a brief overview of selected topics in quantum theory. Schrodinger, Heisenberg and Interaction picture is discussed and applied to study time evolution. Density matrices and Feynman path integrals are introduced. The second part of the course derives the -
Classical Physics (Core), PHYS 612, September 9 - October 23, 2026
The aim of this course is to revisit much of the undergraduate classical physics curriculum in preparation to the study of both General Relativity and Quantum Field Theory. We will focus on the notion of symmetry and Noether's theorem in both mechanical and field theoretical systems (stress energy -
