Abstract
Interacting quantum many-body systems are known to display rich and complex physical behaviors in different spatial and temporal scales. Controlled understanding of them, on the other hand, only become accessible in the past decades through the conceptual development of energy-scale guided emergence. Rigorously based on the structure of quantum mechanics, this talk will introduce the basic concept of emergence in quantum many-body system with a few cases studies, including 1) fractionalization of ionic spin in nickel-based superconductivity, 2) inhibition and rekindled superconductivity in graphene, and 3) nematic superconductivity in transition metal dichalcogenides.
Series This talk is part of the Lennard-Jones Centre series.
