PHYS-741: Gauge Theories and the Standard ModelThe goal of this course is to explain the conceptual and mathematical bases of the Standard Model of fundamental interactions and to illustrate in detail its phenomenological consequences. ...
MATH-494: Topics in arithmetic geometryP-adic numbers are a number theoretic analogue of the real numbers, which interpolate between arithmetics, analysis and geometry. In this course we study their basic properties and give various applications, notably we will prove rationality of the Weil Ze ...
MSE-438: Superconducting electronics: A materials perspectiveIntroduction to superconducting electronic applications and their material requirements, including the fundamental phenomenology of superconductors. Key applications and their material requirements: a) magnets; b) quantum metrology; c) quantum computation. ...
PHYS-746: Before and Behind the Standard ModelThe course offers a conceptually and methodologically advanced overview of the Standard Model and of some of its extensions. It provides the students with the basic tools and with the first elements of "Beyond the SM" model-building and phenomenology. ...
MATH-615: Gaussian free field through random walksIn this lecture series some important objects of random geometry are introduced and studied. In particular, the relation between the Gaussian free field and random walks / Brownian motions is explored. This provides a toolbox of techniques for studying mat ...
