Title:
Quantum criticality and out-of-equilibrium scaling long-range systems and beyond
Abstract:
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 at alpha < d 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 deal with the seemingly unconnected case of 2-components fermi gases confined in 2D traps. The connection between this topic and the previous studies of long-range interactions will be outlined.
