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-535: Algebraic geometry III - selected topicsThis course is an introduction to intersection theory on algebraic varieties.
An important aim of the course is to develop geometric intuition while using the language of schemes developed in the basic algebraic geometry course, thus building a solid foun ...
PHYS-462: Quantum transport in mesoscopic systemsThis course aims to introduce the transport behaviors of micron-size systems, emphasizing learning about recent path-breaking experiments on 2D systems such as Graphene and other vad der Waala materials. The course will also introduce the concept of topolo ...
PHYS-435: Statistical physics IIIThis course introduces statistical field theory, and uses concepts related to phase transitions to discuss a variety of complex systems (random walks and polymers, disordered systems, combinatorial optimisation, information theory and error correcting cod ...
PHYS-502: Interacting quantum matterThis course presents modern aspects of theoretical condensed matter physics with interfaces to statistical physics, quantum information theory, quantum field theory and quantum simulation. ...
PHYS-431: Quantum field theory IThe goal of the course is to introduce relativistic quantum field theory as the conceptual and mathematical framework describing fundamental interactions. ...
MATH-225: Topologie II - groupes fondamentauxOn étudie des notions de topologie générale: unions et quotients d'espaces topologiques; on approfondit les notions de revêtements et de groupe fondamental,et d'attachements de cellules et on démontre le Théorème de Seifert-van Kampen. Des exemples de surf ...
PHYS-419: Solid state physics IIIThe aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the theory of a few remarkable phenomena of modern condensed matter physics ranging from the quantum Hall effects to superconductivity. ...
MATH-206: Analyse IVEn son coeur, c'est un cours d'analyse fonctionnelle pour les physiciens et traite les bases de théorie de mesure, des espaces des fonctions et opérateurs linéaires. ...
MATH-605: Conformal bootstrap and Liouville conformal fieldThe course will focus on a probabilistic construction of a conformal field theory related to random Riemann surfaces, called the Liouville conformal field theory. The symmetries of the theory allow to express the n-point correlation functions in terms of 3 ...
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-606: Statistical Field TheoryThe goal of this class is to teach how to look at two-dimensional field theories, how to analyse them, how to put structures on them. In the end, the student should have a good picture into what we understand for what is happening at the intersection of Qu ...
PHYS-817: SupersymmetrySupersymmetry is the unique quantum extension of the symmetry principles of relativity.
This course offers a first but broad introduction covering the role of Supersymmetry in our understanding of both physics beyond the Standard Model and non-perturbative ...
