Colloquium: Daniel Arovas: "Brief History of Quantum Magnetism"

Friday, May 23, 2025 | 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM CT
Technological Institute, L211, 2145 Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208 map it

I will describe major developments in the field of quantum magnetism, from Bethe’s wavefunction for the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic chain, the Haldane gap, valence bond solids and symmetry protected topological phases, and (hopefully) Kitaev spin liquids. This field has been one of the most consequential within condensed matter physics over the past 40 years.
