Iterating what was already done in 1993, 1995, 1997, 1999, 2001 and 2004 we
are pleased
to announce the
7th Bologna Workshop on:
CFT AND INTEGRABLE MODELS
and their applications to Quantum Field
Theory,
Statistical Mechanics and Condensed Matter Physics
to be held at the Department of
Physics
of Bologna University
(Italy), on July 5 - 8, 2006 (inclusive). The Workshop
is
organized by the
Bologna Theory Group
under the auspices of the University and of
Bologna Section
of INFN.
It is intended to promote
the exchange of ideas at an advanced
technical level among researchers working in this rapidly evolving
field.
Topics:
- Bulk and Boundary Conformal Field Theory
- Integrable Boundaries and Defects
- Bethe Ansatz techniques and Finite Size Effects
- Links of Integrability, Quantum Mechanics and Ordinary Differential
Equations
- Applications to Condensed Matter and Statisitical Mechanics
- SLE and applications of CFT to non-equilibrium phenomena
- Integrability in (Super-)Yang-Mills Field Theories
A provisional list of speakers includes:
- Carl Bender (Washington Univ, St. Louis - USA)
- Michael Berry (Bristol - UK)
- Massimo Bianchi (Roma II - Italy)
- Andrea Cappelli (INFN Firenze - Italy)
- Sebastian Eggert (Kaiserlautern - Germany)
- Petr Kulish (Skt. Petersburg - Russia)
- Lev Lipatov (Skt. Petersburg - Russia)
- Alexander Manashov (Regensburg - Germany)
- Barry McCoy (Stony Brook - USA)
- Arianna Montorsi (Politecnico di Torino - Italy)
- Paul Pearce (Melbourne - Australia)
- Junji Suzuki (Shizuoka - Japan)
Besides a series of plenary talks (of approx. 50 min.), there will be
room
for a number of short communications of 20 min. (including final
discussion)
and a poster session. See the information
on talks page for more details about this.
If you wish to participate, please complete the registration
form before April 22, 2006 .
On the same form you can also put your request to give a short
communication
if interested. You can also modify
your registration after your first inscription.
Unfortunately, due to a very limited budget we are not able to support travel, living and accomodation expenses for the participants. They should
therefore be financially supported by their home institution.
The deep relations between integrable
quantum field theories and pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians recently
emerged, pushed us to organize this
meeting in conjunction with the contiguous
5th International
Workshop on Pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians in Quantum Physics
(July 3-5, 2006),
whose page we invite you to visit. The workshops will have a common day,
devoted to the relations between the two subjects, on July 5.
We welcome people interested in participating to both events.
In this case we ask you, for practical organization reasons,
to check the appropriate button in the registration form.
Hotel Accomodation (please read carefully and act accordingly)
For organizative reasons we cannot provide any reservation service. You
are kindly invited to contact the hotels dierctly to reserve
accomodation. We suggest to try first the list of hotels given here, with whom we have agreed reduced prices for the conference.
Useful Information
Hoping to see you this July under the Two
Towers , we send you our best wishes.
