The Department of Statistical Methods of Mathematical Physics was organized in 1994 on the base of the Laboratory of Statistical Methods of the Department of Mathematical Physics.

Fields of interest:

  • random matrix theory, in particular, unitary invariant ensembles of random matrices, ensembles with independent entries, ensembles of sparse random matrices, theory of random graphs

  • spin glasses and neural networks theory, mean field type models of disordered system, dynamics of neural networks

  • spectral theory of differential and finite-difference operators with random and almost-periodical coefficients including the inverse scattering problem for these operators

  • exactly and asymptotically exactly solvable models of interacting ordered and disordered systems including the picture of phase transitions and calculation methods for important physical characteristics of such systems

  • theory of quantum magnets, in particular, theory of low-dimensional quantum spin systems, theory of quantum spin chains with and without magnetic and nonmagnetic impurities, exact solutions

  • theory of strongly correlated electron systems, in particular, the theory of models of magnetic and hybridization impurities (Kondo and Anderson impurities), low-dimensional correlated electron  models (Hubbard and t-J like models), theory of correlated electron systems with quenched disorder, heavy fermions, non-Fermi-liquids, etc.

  • theory of mesoscopic and nanoscale electron systems, in particular, theories of charge and spin persistent currents in quantum rings, with and without magnetic and hybridization impurities.
