Advancing the theory of quantum phase transitions in the era of quantum computing
Understanding quantum phase transitions is one of the biggest challenges in modern physics, stimulating numerous exciting developments in theoretical, experimental, and numerical physics. Perhaps, the most remarkable, was the invention of conformal field theory, responsible for many exact predictions. This paved the way for numerical and experimental observations of many of these transitions forming, however, a misleading impression that almost all quantum transitions in nature are conformal. But is this imbalance real, or are many exciting non-conformal transitions currently overlooked due to the limitations of our theoretical toolbox? In this proposal, I aim to develop a methodology for…
