Expanded lecture notes. Preliminary version, comments are welcome.

These lecture notes are an informal introduction to the theory of computational complexity and its links to quantum computing and statistical mechanics.

This is a series of lecture notes explaining topos theory and its application in physics.

This reports summarizes the three lectures on particle physics instrumentation given during the AEPSHEP school in November 2014 at Puri-India. The lectures were intended to give an overview of the interaction of particles with matter and…

These are the notes from my courses on the arithmetic of quadratic forms.

This primer is a brief introduction to the technologies used in particle detectors designed for high-energy particle physics experiments. The intended readers are students, especially undergraduates, starting laboratory work.

These lecture notes are based on a course given at Institut de Physique Th\'eorique of CEA/Saclay in January/February 2013.

Some very elementary ideas about quantum groups and quantum algebras are introduced and a few examples of their physical applications are mentioned.

The following notes are intended to provide a brief primer in plasma physics, introducing common definitions, basic properties and processes typically found in plasmas. These concepts are inherent in contemporary plasma-based accelerator…

Lectures notes in universal algebraic geometry for beginners

Here I share a few notes I used in various course lectures, talks, etc. Some may be just calculations that in the textbooks are more complicated, scattered, or less specific; others may be simple observations I found useful or curious.

Lecture-notes: introducing and discussing basic kp concepts related to bands interaction at an elementary level to beginners

These notes are intended to provide a brief primer in plasma physics, introducing common definitions, basic properties, and typical processes found in plasmas. These concepts are inherent in contemporary plasma-based accelerator schemes,…

Lecture notes on quantum machine learning for computer scientists.

We review the features of Dark Matter as a particle, presenting some old and new instructive models, and looking for their physical implications in the early universe and in the process of structure formation. We also present a schematic of…

Lecture Goals: (i) Introduction to the basic concepts, meaning that the emphasis is, in the first instance, on the single-particle aspects. (ii) Service for Experimental Solid State Physics. (iii) Emphasis on the explanation of concepts and…

Elementary particle physics is gradually implemented into science curricula at high school level. However, common presentations on educational, semi-technical or popular level contain or support severe misconceptions. We discuss in…
