Scientific activity
The team studies the N-body quantum problem using analytical techniques (e.g., Feynman diagrams) and numerical techniques (e.g., quantum Monte Carlo). We focus on fundamental models of condensed matter physics, such as the Fermi-Hubbard model and the BEC-BCS transition. These models are relevant to materials science as well as to experiments on cold atoms.
