The Disordered Systems group (Mathematics Department, King's College London) is hosting an Advanved Lectures series for PhD students, postdocs and all who want to attend and learn about advanced topics in the area of classical and quantum statistical mechanics of disordered and complex systems. These are lectures given by group members as well as visitors, in particular from the Distinguished Visitor series of the Math Department.
For the academic year 2023-2024, these will be held on Mondays 12:00-14:00 and/or Wednesdays 13:00-15:00 in S4.23 (Strand Building).
