An overview of string theory IIIn this second meeting, I will describe the classical string and the spectrum after quantisation and I will review how the string amplitudes are constructed. |

An overview of string theoryIn this first meeting, I will introduce String Theory. I will first present the historical steps that led to the theory. |

Localization and non equilibration in quantum disordered systems, from 1958 to yesterdayQuantum disordered many-body systems represent the most spectacular known failure of statistical mechanics. |

Testing the limits of quantum mechanics using micro-magnetomechanical systemsI propose to experimentally investigate micro-magnetomechanical systems made of superconducting particles with size in the micron range, levitated in a magnetic trap. |

Functional DerivativesFunctional derivatives are very useful mathematical tools belonging to functional analysis that apply successfully in developing mathematical theory of quantum field theory and other branches of advan |

Basic Concepts on Ergodic Theory (Part 2)In this talk (one or two talks depending on how it goes) I will outline basic concepts about ergodic theory, Boltzmann's ergodic hyphothesis and the concept of a deterministic system behaving in |

On a class of determinist models for emergent quantum mechanicsIn this talk we discuss some models for emergent quantum mechanics in the line of 't Hooft's approach. |

A sufficient condition for complete positivityThe evolution equations of the statistical operator are (often) subject to the natural request of complete positivity (CP). |

Non-Markovianity - Semigroup DefinitionA way to construct a dynamics which seems to present memory effects will be presented. A specific example will be presented and studied. |
