Topic

Quantum materials are the cornerstones of many near-future applications including new computing chips, energy or quantum computing platforms. The success of these future applications depends heavily on a detailed understanding of the microscopic quantum phenomena at play. Unfortunately, the quantum advantage ultimately emanating from the entanglement between microscopic degrees of freedom comes with an exponential complexity when one needs to perform accurate modeling of quantum materials. Advanced complementary numerical methods ranging from quantum Monte Carlo, exact diagonalization to tensor network and machine-learning techniques aim at fighting this complexity and to unveil the microscopic mechanisms in strongly entangled quantum matter. The purpose of this workshop is to bring together researchers working in this and related fields, to review the state of the art, and to discuss future directions.

Location and access

The conference will be held at the MIR - Maison internationale de la recherche at 1 rue Descartes, Neuville-sur-Oise. By public transport, you should get to the stop "Neuville Université" on RER line A; for planning your trip from train stations as well as CDG airport, the Transilien website may be useful.

If arriving from Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), take RER B and transfer at Châtelet–Les Halles to RER A westbound (direction Ouest) towards Cergy. Both Neuville Université and Cergy Préfecture stations are on this line. Having a map of the RER network could make navigation easier (download here).

Should you arrive at CDG airport, you may also take bus 9518 from Roissypôle. First, take the free shuttle train CDGval from your arrival terminal to the bus terminal at Roissypôle (location of bus stop on Google Maps). Bus 9518 is from departure to final destination at Cergy Préfecture (departure bus stop on Google Maps) at 2.05 € if you use a Navigo Easy Pass. Finally, 1 stop on RER line A from Cergy Préfecture to Neuville Université (+  2.55 €). This route is a bit more complicated than via RER lines B and A, but may be faster and is definitely cheaper.

From the stop Neuville Université, it is a short walk to the MIR, see access map.
