One Dimension, Countless Directions

This workshop, which was held 20-21 November at the MPIPKS in Dresden, gathered 50 participants (from 15 countries) whose research, in one way or another, deals with exactly-solvable quantum many-body systems.
Among topics treated, one finds: new results at the boundaries of the theory of integrability in spin chains (Fagotti, Fendley, Frahm), dissipative systems (Essler), fluctuation theory (Bernard), relations to quantum computers (Granet, Klümper), experiments (Schmiedmayer) and correlations (Göhmann) in cold atoms, criticality (Tsvelik), field theory (Pereira), neutron scattering experiments (Tennant, Lake, Zaliznyak), in discrete-time systems (Piroli, Prosen), exclusion processes (de Gier), anyons (Schneider), transport (Konik), and spectral properties (Mussardo). All talks were in-person except those from a US National Lab (Konik, Tsvelik, Zaliznyak) due to the US government shutdown.
Despite the short duration of the event, a number of discussion time slots were allocated around coffee and lunch breaks, allowing people to interact and for newcomers to introduce themselves. A workshop dinner provided a further occasion for interactions.
The workshop provided a productive opportunity for theorists and experimentalists who perform research on strongly-correlated solvable systems in rather distinct settings, to catch up on recent progress and explore possibilities for future collaborations. For example, followups can be expected from participants working on spin systems related to quantum information processing and their discrete-time equivalents, from the experimental, theoretical and applied (external startups) sides.
