The Winter School is a one-day event designed to bring together students, postdocs, and faculty for introductory lectures on the DMRG method in the physical sciences, taught by international experts. The school will also include talks highlighting a cross-section of modern DMRG related research.
Register early - space is limited.

Since the invention of the atomic force microscope (AFM) by Binnig, Quate and Gerber in 1986, force-based scanning probes have become an essential tool for imaging, manipulating and measuring materials on the nanometer scale. At the heart of the AFM is a mechanical sensor or cantilever that transduces the force generated between the probe tip and the sample into a displacement.

Classical Computation in Quantum Spin Structures
Can we design, build and operate atomic-scale logic circuits that perform conventional binary computation using only the spin degree of freedom?

Since Shor's algorithm breaks RSA cryptography, it makes sense to look for post-quantum cryptosystems: cryptosystems that can be carried out with classical computers today, but which will remain secure even if and when quantum computers are built.
