SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  Math and physics at the moiré scale
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Placing a two-dimensional lattice with a small rotation gives rise to almost periodic \"moiré\" patterns on a superlattice scale much larger than the original lattice. We have used the mathematical techniques developed to study waves in inhomogeneous media to identify a regime where the Bistritzer-MacDonald continuum model emerges as the effective dynamics for electrons modeled as wave-packets spectrally concentrated at the monolayer Dirac points of linear dispersion\, up to error that we rigorously estimate. We have shown that this regime is realized in twisted bilayer graphene at the first \"magic\" angle where the group velocity of the wave packet is zero and strongly correlated electronic phases (superconductivity\, Mott insulators\, etc.) have recently been observed.\n\nWe will present recent results that rigorously extend this analysis to account for the effects of structural relaxation and to essentially arbitrary moiré materials such as twisted multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) or even twisted heterostructures consisting of layers of distinct 2D materials.\n\nContact: Ian Tobasco

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  Spectral theory of soliton gases for integrable equations and related problems
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Soliton gases for integrable systems is a rapidly developing new area in the theory of nonlinear waves. The spectral theory of soliton gases is concerned about macroscopic characteristics of large soliton ensembles. We go briefly over the history of the subject\, such as V. Zakharov’s (1971) expression of the average velocity of a trial soliton in a (diluted) gas and the idea of the thermodynamic limit of wavenumbers and frequencies of finite gap solutions of G. El (2003). We then discuss some recent results and open problems\, as well as some methods of potential theory and algebraic geometry that appear to be relevant for soliton gases.\n\nContact:  Peter Miller

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colloquium: How to achieve quantum advantage?
DESCRIPTION:The development of error-corrected quantum computers raises the prospect of quantum advantages in scientific computation. Which problems are likely to benefit\, and what will it take to realize these advantages? I will first discuss basic quantum algorithm concepts and some criteria for comparing quantum and classical computation. I will then focus on eigenvalue problems\, where improving the precision of an approximate solution offers one possible route to quantum advantage. Recent advances allow quantum eigensolvers to use few auxiliary qubits and short coherent evolutions\, with near-optimal dependence on the target precision. I will introduce these developments and a method for estimating multiple eigenvalues together with their multiplicities. Most of the presentation is intended to be accessible to a broad mathematical audience without prior background in quantum computation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar: Programmable Collective Dynamics in Active Matter and Robot Swarms
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Collective systems are able to exhibit complex global dynamics through relatively simple local interactions\, and they give us a powerful connection between nonequilibrium physics\, active matter\, and robotics. In this talk\, I will present our work on understanding and controlling collective behavior across theoretical and experimental systems. I will first discuss experimental work involving magnetic microrobot collectives in which competing pairwise interactions enable reconfiguration between distinct states\, locomotion\, and environmental interactions. And when heterogeneity and asymmetric interactions are introduced\, they can be used to program self-organization and generate various collective behaviors that include phase separation\, morphology changes\, and object manipulation. At the more theoretical level\, I will discuss swarmalators\, which are agents that simultaneously swarm and synchronize\, and I will show how chirality\, heterogeneity\, multiple internal phases\, and nonreciprocal interactions can enable fascinating and non-intuitive collective states\, as well as be exploited to systematically control the collective to exhibit desired shape formation\, navigation\, and object manipulation\, such that principles from active matter can be used for programmable collective robotic systems.\n\n\nContact:  Silas Alben
