Math physicist first Slovenian to win two ERC advanced grants

Mathematical physicist Tomaž Prosen, a professor at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, University of Ljubljana, has won his second European Research Council (ERC) advanced grant for research in mathematical statistical physics.

In the project Quantum Ergodicity: Stability and Transitions (QUEST) Prosen will research the robustness of quantum chaos and quantum ergodicity for outside disruptions. As Prosen said, this is basic research in the field of mathematical statistical physics.

Ergodicity, which is the idea that a point of a moving system will eventually visit all...
