The ERG conferences, held every second year, are intended to bring together researchers from different branches of theoretical physics who apply modern functional renormalization group (fRG) methods to describe and understand a variety of physical phenomena. For example, applications include quantum many-body systems, statistical mechanics, particle physics, nuclear physics and quantum theories of gravity. The conference is intended to foster collaboration and scientific exchange both within the growing fRG community and among the various communities working on non-perturbative methods, renormalizationgroup (RG) approaches, and modern developments in field-theoretical methods. To this end, besides providing ample space for a detailed account of the recent developments of the fRG method and its applications, the event will also host plenary review talks on different research directions of topical interest for the contemporary theoretical-physics community.
Registration is open until June 30th. Applicants will be considered on a first come first served basis.
Participants of the conference will be accommodated in different hotels located in Les Diablerets between 5 and 20 minutes by foot from the conference venue. All meals excepted breakfast will be taken together at Hotel les Sources, and covered by the organisers’ funding.
Speakers will have their accommodation in single room covered by the organisers as well.
Other applicants can request financial support for the accommodation in the registration form by ticking the corresponding box.
As a general rule, no travel expenses will be covered. However, some exceptions might be possible: please contact Nicolò Defenu at ndefenu@phys.ethz.ch for more information.
