Quantum criticality and out-of-equilibrium scaling long-range systems and beyond
The seminar is meant to present a bird's eye view on the field of long-range interacting quantum systems. The talk will start with a brief overview of critical phenomena in systems with power law interactions 1/r^{\alpha} showing how the equilibrium scaling depends of the power-law scaling $\alpha$. Then, I will describe the peculiar out-of-equilibrium scaling dynamics observed in "strong" long-range systems with \alpha < d, both for sudden and slow quenches. Finally, I will show how the study of long-range interacting systems is connected to the case of non-homogeneous disordered structures. For the seminar link contact Pawel Jakubczyk.
