There will be online broadcast– we will announce tencent meeting numbers one day before each lecture.
•Language : English
There will be tutorial and discussion sessions led by Yizhou Ma from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Topics include (i) simple illustrative proofs in entanglement bootstrap, (ii)categorical descriptions of topologically ordered systems in 2+1D and higher dimensions, and(iii) exactly solvable wave functions and analytical computations of information convex sets.
主讲人简介 / About the Speaker
Dr. Bowen Shi is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), collaborating with Assistant Professor of Physics Jong Yeon Lee, whose research interests in the theoretical aspects of quantum many-body systems and quantum phases of matter align closely with Shi’s previous work.
He obtained his doctoral degree from the Ohio State University in 2020, where he worked under Professor Yuan-Ming Lu on understanding the emergence of anyons—quasiparticles in two-dimensional systems—from a quantum information perspective.
He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship at UC San Diego under John McGreevy as part of the Simons Collaboration on Ultra-Quantum Matter, focusing on developing a theoretical framework known as the entanglement bootstrap. He continued work in this area through the summer of 2024 during a short-term postdoctoral study at UC Davis working with Isaac Kim.
