About

This conference honors Felix Izrailev’s 60 years of research, which started with his paper from 1965 “The Statistical Properties of a Nonlinear String” that he co authored with Boris Chirikov. This paper provides an analytical resolution to the long-standing issue of the lack of thermalization in the FPU model. Since then, his work has explored various aspects of classical chaos, eventually leading him to develop the foundations of quantum chaos theory. He has contributed highly towards understanding quantum ergodicity, transport in complex systems, and the onset of universal chaotic dynamics.

Quantum chaos is essential to physics ranging from single-particle systems, quantum dots, many-body systems and even statistical mechanics. The development of random matrix theory, eigenstate thermalization, and quantum scars has improved our understanding of the transition from order to chaos in quantum systems. Furthermore, chaotic dynamics have been studied within astrophysics and cosmology, where classical and quantum chaos influence gravitational and wave interactions.

This conference brings together leading experts and young researchers to discuss the latest developments in quantum chaos and nonlinear dynamics, celebrating Izrailev’s profound impact and the ongoing evolution of the field.
