A discussion of the method of multiscale analysis in the study of localization of random operators based on lectures given at \emph{Random Schr\"odinger operators: methods, results, and perspectives}, \'Etats de la recherche, Universit\'e…
Lectures given at International School of Physics ``Enrico Fermi'', Varenna, Villa Monastero, June 28-July 7 1994
These are largely expanded notes from lectures on Higgs moduli and abelianisation given in Angers, France (2014) and Guaruja, Brazil (2015). Dedicated to Ugo Bruzzo on his 60-th birthday. Version 2: minor corrections.
This material complements David Chandler's Introduction to Modern Statistical Mechanics (Oxford University Press, 1987) in a graduate-level, one-semester course I teach in the Department of Chemistry at Duke University. Students enter this…
Summary of Quantum Magnetism Conference, Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara, California, August 16-20, 1999.
This article contains lecture notes on the constrained path Monte Carlo method and its applications to study the Hubbard model. The lectures were given at the NATO Advanced Summer Institute held in Ithaca NY (1998). The article is published…
Contribution to the proceedings of the 1998 Enrico Fermi summer school on Bose-Einstein condensation in Varenna, Italy.
In this talk I discuss some recent developments in physics beyond the Standard Model. After some initial comments on neutrino masses, I discuss the status of low-energy supersymmetry and finally turn to describing some recent work in…
The Milanese period in Albert Einstein's life is a key one for the understanding of the development of his scientific questioning. While being a student in Z\"urich from 1896, Einstein returned regularly to Milan to meet his family for the…
Talk given at XIXth International Symposium on Lepton and Photon Interactions at High Energies (LP 99), Stanford, California, 9-14 August 1999.
This talk is dedicated to various aspects of Mirror Symmetry. It summarizes some of the mathematical developments that took place since M. Kontsevich's report at the Z\"urich ICM and provides an extensive, although not exhaustive,…
Talk presented by S.M. Bilenky at the Adriatico Research Conference on "Trends in Collider Spin Physics", ICTP, Trieste, December 1995.
This is a paper published in 2001 based on a talk given in 1999 celebrating the 50th anniversary of W. N. Bailey's influential q-series paper "Identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type". In no more than 13 pages I give a brief but reasonably…
These are lecture notes of a course on Calogero-Moser systems and their connections with representation theory and geometry, given by the author in Zurich in May-June 2005.
An elementary review of models and phenomenology for physics beyond the Standard Model (excluding supersymmetry). The emphasis is on LHC physics. Based upon a talk given at the Physics at LHC conference, Vienna, 13-17 July 2004.
We give a brief account of the development of methods to include thermal fluctuations into lattice Boltzmann algorithms. Emphasis is put on our recent work (Phys. Rev. E 76, 036704 (2007)) which provides a clear understanding in terms of…
Presented here is a transcription of the lecture notes from Professor Allan N. Kaufman's graduate statistical mechanics course at Berkeley from the 1972-1973 academic year. Part 1 addresses equilibrium statistical mechanics with topics:…
Invited review talk at the International Conference on Non-Accelerator Particle Physics (ICNAPP-94), Bangalore, India, 2-9 January 1994. Latex file.
These are Notes prepared for nine lectures given at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, MSRI, Berkeley during the period January--March 1995. It is a pleasant duty to record here my gratitude to MSRI, and its staff, for making…
Those notes rest on the Samuel Eilenberg Lectures I gave at Columbia University, NY, in the fall 2022. I thank all the mathematicians who participated in their elaboration, directly or indirectly. They are meant to be published as a…
