This paper presents a summary of the theoretical presentations to the international workshop "Diffraction 2006". The range of topics covered during the workshop was quite broad and this summary is therefore somewhat selective covering…
We propose a new framework of quantum field theory for an arbitrary observer in curved spacetime, defined in the spacetime region in which each point can both receive a signal from and send a signal to the observer. Multiple motivations for…
Lecture Notes of the Les Houches Summer School 2003 on Quantum entanglement and information processing to be published as P. Zoller, J. I. Cirac, Luming Duan and J. J. Garcia-Ripoll, in "Quantum entanglement and information processing",…
This is the talk given at the Workshop:"Focus on Multiplicitioes", Bari, Italy, 17-19 June,2004.. In this talk, we are going to discuss ion-ion and deuteron - nucleus RHIC data and show that they support, if not more, the idea of the new…
In this talk I will first give a short discussion of some lattice results for QCD at finite temperature. I will then describe in some detail the technique of dimensional reduction, which in principle is a powerful technique to obtain…
Starting from a quantum Langevin equation (QLE) of a charged particle coupled to a heat bath in the presence of an external magnetic field, we present a fully dynamical calculation of the susceptibility tensor. We further evaluate the…
We study theoretically the dynamics of charged quantized vortices (CQVs). CQVs (ion-vortex complexes) have been used as an important probe in the field of quantum hydrodynamics. Recent experimental studies of quantum turbulence at very low…

These are notes from a 15 week course aimed at graduate mathematicians. They provide an essentially self-contained introduction to some of the ideas and terminology of QFT.
We revisit the phase structure and thermodynamics of QCD in the low temperature and high density region, where a strong, first-order phase transition is expected beyond the critical end point. By solving the quark gap equation in the…
I review recent developments in finite temperature lattice QCD which are useful for the study of heavy-ion collisions. I pay particular attention to studies of the equation of state and the light they throw on conformal symmetry and the…

Heavy-ion collisions at relativistic energies probe matter at extreme conditions of temperatures and energy densities. The study of event-by-event fluctuations of experimental observables is crucial to probe the QCD phase transition, locate…
