Funded Activity Summary

Quantum integrable models in nano and mesoscopic physics. The current advances in nanoscale and mesoscopic physics are generating a wealth of activity with many exciting applications. This project aims to study several theoretical aspects in three key areas; the theory of ultrasmall metallic grains of dimensions of a few nanometres, which through experimental work have shown characteristics which are similar to macroscopic superconductors, the Nobel Prize winning phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation in dilute alkali gases and the effects of magnetic impurities in strongly interacting electron systems. The approach of the project is to use the mathematical theory of exactly solvable systems to study these important areas in contemporary physics.
