Schedule and Venue
June 1-5, 2026
Panasonic Auditorium, Yukawa Hall, YITP, Kyoto University, Japan
Scope
Non-equilibrium physics, compared to the equilibrium counterpart, has so far remained as an obvious frontier in physics. While the topic is considered difficult due to the lack of systematic methods of analysis, developing such methods would be extremely desirable. It will not only deepen our view on the world around us but could even enable diverse industrial applications.
Recently, there has been a surge of new ideas and techniques across various areas of physics related to non-equilibrium phenomena such fields include quantum many-body chaos, hydrodynamics, and surprisingly, quantum gravity. Moreover, these ideas seem to be mutually connected, hinting at an emergence of a more systematic understanding, in the name of effective field theories and black holes.
Despite this, there has only been a few attempts at unifying our understanding of non-equilibrium phenomena across various fields. The purpose of the proposed conference is to tackle this; to share ideas and foster collaboration among different fields, so that we will develop a new systematic and quantitative method of studying non-equilibrium physics.
