The Simons Center for Computational Physical Chemistry at NYU regularly hosts visiting scholars to discuss their work.  Join us on May 21 for a presentation by Werner Krauth, Simons Center's Distinguished Visiting Professor and Research Director of CNRS (French National Research Center):  Non-reversible Markov chains: From statistical mechanics to chemical physics All Simons Center seminars...

In this tutorial, we will discuss key subjects in statistics and classical and quantum statistical physics starting from miniature (!) computer programs. Tools will range from Markov-chain Monte Carlo to molecular dynamics, with applications from entropic phase transitions to the Feynman path integral. The tutorial will be highly interactive, and attendees are encouraged to bring...
