This project aims to use a combination of algebraic, analytic and numerical techniques to develop computational algorithms to address a range of notoriously challenging problems in the mathematical sciences. These problems involve predicting the large-scale behaviour of strongly interacting classical and quantum spin systems originating in condensed matter physics, including models of relevance to proposals for topological quantum computation and the latest progress using field theory. The project outcomes will involve advances in understanding these systems from new exact results and high precision numerical estimates.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop new mathematical approaches to the theory of integrable systems to obtain exact solutions of various non-linear models of two-dimensional quantum field theory. The project is based on an unexpected correspondence between classical and quantum systems which provides a powerful method for describing physically interesting models of integrable quantum field theory. Expected outcomes include exact solutions to non-linear sigma-models which have important applications in many areas, including condensed matter physics, string and field theories and Riemannian geometry. The project expects to provide significant benefit to the advancement of knowledge in physics and mathematics.Read moreRead less
