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...

The Simons Center for Computational Physical Chemistry at NYU regularly hosts visiting scholars to discuss their work.  Join us on June 10th for a presentation by David Wales, Simons Center Visiting Scholar, and Professor of Chemical Physics at the University of Cambridge:  Energy landscapes: from molecules and nanodevices to machine learning All Simons Center seminars...
