9:30-10:30: Toky Andriamanalina Title: Untangling 3-periodic entanglements of filaments and nets Abstract: Entanglements of curves and nets can used to describe various biological and chemical structures, such as coordination polymers, liquid crystals, or DNA origami crystals. We recently developed new diagrammatic descriptions of 3-periodic entanglements. These new diagrams are drawn out of a projection along one axis of a unit cell of a 3-periodic structure. By using these diagrams, we define the notion of untangling number for 3-periodic structures, which is a measure of complexity of the entanglement. Thanks to this, it is now possible to characterise the least tangled structures that we call ground states, and in particular we show that the rod packings are the generic ground states of entanglements of curves. 10:30-11:00: coffee break 11:00 - 12:00: Stephen Hyde Title: Tangles... and untangles Abstract: Knots, braids, links, self-entangled nets, multiple catenated infinite nets... are examples of what we call, simply, “tangles”. They are relevant to molecular-scale (bio)materials, from duplexed ssRNA to metal-organic frameworks. We are interested in understanding: 1.Which tangles are “simple”? 2.How tangled is a tangle!? Our tangle toolkit is a simple one: we assemble helices into networks, allowing a broad spectrum of tangles to be built, from knots to tangled nets. Interesting “simple” tangles are entanglements of the edges of Platonic polyhedra [1] and entangled 2-periodic nets [2]. A proposed answer to point 2. above will be discussed. if there is time. The ideas are at present largely unpublished, and being working into a book to be published, we hope, in late 2025 [3]. 13:00 - 14:00: Myfanwy Evans Title: Can solvents tie knots? Helical folds of biopolymers in liquid environments. Abstract: Using a simulation technique based on the morphometric approach to solvation, we performed computer experiments which fold a short open flexible tube, modelling a biopolymer in aqueous environments, according to the interaction of the tube with the solvent alone. We find an array of helical geometries that self-assemble depending on the solvent conditions, including symmetric double helices where the strand folds back on itself and overhand knot motifs. Interestingly these shapes—in all their variety—are energetically favoured over the optimal helix. By differentiating the role of solvation in self–assembly our study helps illuminate the energetic background scenery in which all soluble biomolecules live. This event is organized with the Interdisciplinary Math Study Group.

RIKEN Quantum Workshop on “Quantum-Like Modeling” in Cognitive & Social Sciences

2024年10月11日(金) 14:00 - 19:00

Recently, there has been a growing trend to consider cognitive, and social phenomena as Open Quantum Systems, and to mathematically define the fundamental principles behind them through so-called “Quantum-Like Modeling”. It has been extremely difficult to systematically explain complexities of such phenomena within humans’ cognitive traits based on classical “rational” reasoning. Quantum-Like Modeling suggests that using quantum probability calculus and its applications could be useful to rationalize such phenomena and expand previous understandings, obtained through simple linear algebra, by applying quantum formalizations. Just as physicists explored a new branch of mathematics, the theory of operators in complex Hilbert space, to describe the quantum phenomena in an effective way, considerations here will be built on the methodology and mathematical apparatus of quantum theory and directed to applications outside of physics, namely to, cognition, psychology, decision-making, economics, finances, as well as the social and political sciences. Programme 14:00~14:10 Atsushi Iriki: Introduction. Potential of quantum computing for humanities 14:10~15:10 Andrei Khrennikov: Tutorial. Ubiquitous Quantum: from genetics and biological evolution to cognition, psychology, decision making, and social science 15:10~15:40 Masanao Ozawa: Quantum Instrument -- Measurement to cognition with QC-simulation Break 16:00~16:30 Haruki Emori: Applications of quantum computers to cognitive sciences based on Quantum Instrument 16:30~17:00 Miho Fuyama: Subjective Experiences and Superposition State in Narrative Reading 17:00~17:30 General Discussion 18:00~19:00 Networking Mixer (RIKEN canteen #1) Registration Deadline September 26 (Thur), 2024 (for those attending both the workshop and networking mixer (banquet, free of charge)) October 4 (Fri), 2024 (for those attending only the workshop)

Establishing universal laws in far-from-equilibrium physical systems is one of the outstanding unresolved problems in modern physics. While we have not reached a complete theory applicable to any nonequilibrium system, hydrodynamics provides a promising theoretical tool, which captures universal macroscopic behaviors of nonequilibrium many-body systems. In particular, a hydrodynamic approach with thermal fluctuation, dubbed fluctuating hydrodynamics, successfully describes normal hydrodynamic transports in three-dimensional systems as well as anomalous transports (related to the Kardar–Parisi–Zhang universality class) in low-dimensional systems. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together theorists working on both classical and quantum many-body problems and to explore nonequilibrium physics from the viewpoint of fluctuating hydrodynamics.

Recent Developments and Challenges in Topological Phases

2024年6月3日(月) - 14日(金)

Thanks to intensive research efforts, topology has been established as a fundamental concept in physics. For closed quantum systems, the classification of gapped topological phases has matured. Moreover, the importance of topology is not limited to isolated quantum systems. Recently, the topology of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which effectively describe systems with dissipation, has attracted much attention worldwide. This fascination is exemplified by topological phases and topological phenomena unique to non-Hermitian systems. Against this background, the primary purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers working on topological phases and to discuss (i) open questions in topological phases of closed quantum systems and (ii) the role of topology in open quantum systems and measurements.

The goal of the workshop is to provide working knowledge of the topic and leave dedicated time for discussions to encourage mutual interactions among participants. The first workshop is devoted to cosmic birefringence, a newly establishing cosmological probe of the nature of our universe. Cosmic birefringence is the rotation of the linear polarization plane of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation and, thanks to its origin, inherently measures the degree of parity violation in the cosmic history. This one-day workshop gathers both the observational and theoretical aspects of this growing topic. The workshop will be in English. The venue is on RIKEN Wako Campus, and the exact room is yet to be determined, depending on the number of registered participants. The workshops are organised by the iTHEMS Cosmology Forum working group, which is the successor of the Dark Matter Working Group at RIKEN iTHEMS.

QCD at finite temperature and density is one of the most challenging problems in modern physics, which plays a crucial role to understand the origin and coevolution of the universe and matter. On the one hand, the relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments in the past decades have opened a new and exciting field to explore physical properties of such a QCD matter at high-tempearture. On the other hand, recent astrophysical observations of compact stars (in particular, events involving neutron stars) is becoming another exciting tool to unveil properties of the dense QCD matter. This molecule-type workshop is aimed at bringing together theorists working on QCD at finite-temperature and density, with a particular focus on dense quark-nuclear matter relevant to neutron star physics. We will mainly cover macroscopic properties of the finite-density QCD matter such as the Lee-Yang edge singularity for a QCD critical point, the renewed Fermi liquid theory for quark-nuclear matter, nuclear superfluidity, color superconductivity, quark-hadron continuity, quantum vortex, and transport phenomena including the weak-intearction processes.

Second Workshop on Fundamentals in Density Functional Theory (DFT2024)

2024年2月20日(火) - 22日(木)

The density functional theory (DFT) is one of the powerful methods to solve quantum many-body problems, which, in principle, gives the exact energy and density of the ground state. The accuracy of DFT is, in practice, determined by the accuracy of an energy density functional (EDF) since the exact EDF is still unknown. Currently, DFT has been used in many communities, including nuclear physics, quantum chemistry, and condensed matter physics, while the fundamental study of DFT, such as the first principle derivations of an accurate EDF and methods to calculate many observables from obtained densities and excited states. However, there has been little opportunity to have interdisciplinary communication. On December 2022, we had the first workshop on this series (DFT2022) at Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kyoto University, and several interdisiplinary discussions and collaborationd were started. To share such progresses and extend collaborations, we organize the second workshop. In this workshop, the current status and issues of each discipline will be shared towards solving these problems by meeting together among researchers in mathematics, nuclear physics, quantum chemistry, and condensed matter physics. This workshop mainly comprises lectures/seminars on cutting-edge topics and discussion, while a half-day session composed of contributed talks is also planned. This workshop is partially supported by iTHEMS-phys Study Group. This workshop is a part of the RIKEN Symposium Series. The detailed information can be found in the workshop website.

One of the most fundamental challenges in theoretical physics is to uncover the physical properties of strongly-interacting quantum many-body systems. This problem is shared in both subatomic physics and condensed matter physics; e.g., to unveil ground state structures and dynamical aspects of quantum systems. However, it has been an unresolved issue to establish non-perturbative theoretical tools, which allows a reliable analytic approach to quantum many-body problems described by field theory. The Functional Renormalization Group (FRG) is proposed as one of the theoretical methods that facilitates the non-perturbative investigation of quantum many-body systems. The FRG has found applications in various fields of physics, ranging from particle and nuclear physics to condensed matter physics, leading to several unique achievements in each fields. The aim of this two-day workshop is to provide an overview of the recent applications and progress of FRG in various fields of physics, discuss future directions, and explore potential new collaborations that bridge different fields of physics.
