This small conference will be about implementation of symmetry
principles in many-body phenomena. The main themes we expect to be
covered in the seminar are: dynamical symmetry and supersymmetry in
nuclear collective motion as described by the interacting boson model
and its extensions; symmetry in electronic many-body systems including
mesoscopic systems and micro-clusters; fundamental symmetries; chaos
and broken symmetries, quantum integrable systems; utility of symmetry
concepts in nuclei near the drip lines; symmetries of relativistic
problems; and symmetries in the scattering theory.
A
preliminary program is now available.
