Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
I shall participate in a themed research programme at the Kavli Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of California, Santa Barbara bringing together persons working in the statistical physics of complex behaviour due to frustration and disorder and others working in non-equilibrium quantum problems. I plan to develop several programmes which I already have in mind, utilising the opportunities of consultation and collaboration. I shall also look to developing new projects and commencing their execution (and perhaps completing some of it). Specific topics already in mind include fermionic glasses, quantum annealing, p-spin extensions and, in glasses, the concept of quasiparticles with reduced Hamiltonian interaction but constrained dynamics. I also plan to re-examine aspects of'superfluidity' in non-equilibrium type II Bose condensates in Fermi systems.
