Equilibration of isolated quantum systems has attracted much attention recently. Due to their integrability, one-dimensional systems often equilibrate towards a non-thermal steady state. In coupled quantum Hall edge states, the approach towards such a non-equilibrium steady state can be understood in terms of charge fractionalization, i.e. the decomposition of injected charges into eigenmodes propagating at different velocities. The method of non-equilibrium bosonization allows to describe such equilibration, distinguishing the regimes of quasi-particle creation and local equilibration. Generalizing to anyons on fractional quantum Hall edges, steady state current fluctuations can be related to the probability of anyons excluding each other spatially.

11:15 - 12:05
In the past few years a growing consensus has been building around the idea that a spatially inhomogeneous chiral condensate may form in dense quark matter. In this talk, I will give a brief historical overview and review some recent developments on the characterization of such crystalline condensates using effective models for describing of QCD at finite density.

09:00 - 09:50
I will summarize the structure and scope of the so-called melonic large N expansion, which typically governs the large N behaviour of theories involving higher rank tensors. Compared to vector and matrix theories, What distinguishes it from the large N expansions of vector or matrix theories is that it is dominated by a non-trivial family of Feynman diagrams -- the melon diagrams -- which remains explicitly summable in a variety of situations. This provides a new analytical window into non-perturbative aspects of quantum theory, which has been taken advantage of to investigate strongly-interacting fermionic disordered systems (SYK model) and higher-dimensional generalizations.
