Quantization in curved spacetime

Frank Antonsen

An interesting approach to field quantization in curvilinear spacetime has been developed by Frank Antonsen from Copenhagen, going back to Wigner, Weyl and Moyal. It is based on the covariant Wigner function formalism. He will visit us on the 2nd of March and give a special seminar talk at FIAS.

Complexity

FIAS Lectures on complexity

Complexity science deals with the offspring, or emergence, of large scale order and structure, in open, non-equilibrium sys- tems. Unexpected and unpredicted order can emerge from simple interactions among myriads of individuals, or degrees of freedom. Phase transitions and their implied criticality give rise to natural phenomena and properties that form a new, higher level of order which can not be deduced from the properties at the microscopic level. Examples range from the emergence of space and time in the cosmological evolution, to the evolution of the biosphere, to economic growth, or consciousness. One may seek for a new kind of natural laws governing dynamical systems of nature. The event adresses itself to the scientific community – from graduate students to senior scientists.

Tomato meets USA

September 20, 2018 7:00 PM

FIAS Forum: The tomato and the United States of America

The speaker will be Prof. Dr. Enrico Schleiff, Member of the FIAS Board of Directors

What influence does the United States of America have on our image of the tomato? What mechanisms has the tomato developed to respond to changing trends in United States policy? And what does the use of tomatoes tell us about the true policy of the United States of America?
