Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
CHAPTER 1
Presentation of the Institute
The Institut de physique théorique (IPhT) is an institute of the Direction des sciences de
la matière (DSM) of the Commissariat à l’énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives
(CEA), and a laboratory of Institut national de physique (INP) at the Centre national de
la recherche scientifique (CNRS, Unité de recherche associée URA2306). It is part of the
Centre de recherches de Saclay, on the Plateau de Saclay.
Over the years, the IPhT has gained a worldwide recognition for its many fundamental
contributions to theoretical physics. A long tradition of impartial scientific evaluations has
helped the Institute to adapt to the many evolutions of theoretical physics from a purely
scientific viewpoint, but also to many changes in the management of science, in France and
abroad.
This report presents an overview of the organization and activities of the IPhT from
January 2008 to June 2013.
1.1
Activity overview
Our main activity is fundamental research in theoretical physics, resulting in the production
of articles in peer-reviewed journals, as well as communications in international conferences
or workshops, or in various seminars. We also take part in the organization of such events.
Globally this activity may accounts for 80% of our time.
We also dedicate a consequent amount of time to the formation of students, mostly at
the graduate level (master students or PhD). Many permanent members regularly teach in
Master courses, at IPhT, in the Paris area but also farther in France or abroad. We also
organize or teach in numerous summer schools. The number of graduate students present
in the institute has grown rapidly in the last few years, it almost reaches 30, to which
should be added about 10 external PhDs spending a long period in our Institute. Roughly
15% of our work time can be associated with this formation activity.
Research administration and animation may account to about 5% of our work time.
It mainly consists in participation in various committees: hiring committees at universities, CNRS committee, steering committees of various research structures (Labex, RTRA,
academic senate of the new Paris-Saclay University).
Our actions towards society at large are relatively few, and account for a negligible part
of our work time.
The general focus of this detailed introduction is on qualitative trends rather than on
quantitative data, but precise statistics are collected in the appendices of the report. These
appendices cover also a number of facets of the IPhT: awards, teaching, external fundings,
5
6
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
scientific editing, research administration, organization. My deputies, Anne Capdepon and
Stéphane Nonnenmacher, dedicated a lot of time to those. The writing of the scientific
part involved a large fraction of the permanents. Special credits for hard work go to the
members of the internal scientific council.
1.2
Three main “themes”
Over the five and a half years period covered by the report, above one thousand articles,
proceedings or books have been published by IPhT members (permanent researchers, PhDs
and PostDocs, long term visitors). This large number makes it illusory to include, in a
readable and useful report, a complete list of even cursory descriptions. Instead, in Chap. 2
below we illustrate the salient features of our work via three topical surveys, and a selection
of about twenty highlights.
The surveys:
– Models and Structures: Mathematical Physics
– Cosmology and Particle Physics
– Statistical Physics, Condensed Matter and Biophysics
reflect the three main research directions, as well as a formal organization (more on this
later) of the Institute, but definitely not a clear-cut division of the people into “teams”
working separately from each other. The contributions of many researchers are split between at least two of the three surveys. These surveys, as well as the following highlights,
are meant to be gentle general introductions, and we hope that they will trigger the reader’s
curiosity to have a closer look at some of the publications.
1.3
A few publication statistics
Most of our production consists in publishing articles in peer-reviewed journals, the rest
consisting in advanced scientific softwares, some of them publicly available (see section 1.9).
A full list of our publications, with various statistics appear in App. A.6.

Table 1: A few data on our publications (after ISI Web of Science)
A significantly high proportion of the IPhT articles made its way to the top 10% or top
1% most cited in Physics over the period 2008-2012. Some papers have had the honor of
the front-cover of good journals or have been awarded prizes (see App. A.6).
The highlights we propose in Chap. 2 are not meant to reflect these successes. They
illustrate some significant projects or scientific trends over the period under review. Though
we have chosen those carefully, we are well aware that only the future will tell which ideas
and contributions will survive in the long term.
1.4
Interaction with society at large
Our interaction with society at large can be considered as relatively minor, the content of
our research activities being rather abstract, with no immediate application to everyday

life or to marketable innovations. Still, fundamental science continues to fascinate the
general public. Some of our members have given interviews in newspapers or popular
science journals, or have written articles in such journals. A few members present their
professional activity (as scientists) in high schools, or in general audience conferences.
Others have participated in radio programs; this has been the case in particular at the
occasion of widely advertised scientific events (e.g. the recent discovery of a Higgs-like
boson, or the cosmological data obtained from the Planck satellite mission). Some detailed
actions are listed in App. A.9.
1.5
Scientific snapshot
The basic goal of IPhT is to contribute to a better understanding of the laws of nature,
from the largest scales to the smallest ones. This goal can take a variety of incarnations,
depending on the field of research and the personality of the researcher. But IPhT can
claim to harbor at least one respected specialist in any major physics field of current interest, with a handful of exceptions though.
IPhT disposes of several task forces of leading experts.
One example is the field of precision perturbative quantum gauge field theory computations. This field is living a revolution which started about a decade ago. The LHC makes
this activity particularly timely because high precision computations of the “background
signal" are needed in order to detect any “new physics". The activity at IPhT goes from
abstract (yet deep) results relating gauge theory and gravity amplitudes to more concrete
(but highly tricky) computations of standard model cross sections. The intermediates are
numerous, each involving impressive mathematics, and the flow of ideas is by no means
one-way. The output is a mixture of publications and software. These activities also have
close connections with integrable systems —a tradition at IPhT— used to compute with
great success exact properties of supersymmetric gauge theories, and of course with string
theory.
String theory is a rather recent research direction at IPhT. After several failures to attract
seniors, the policy to build a junior group is by now a real success. The group cannot cover
all aspects of the subject, but its members have made fundamental contributions to black
holes, flux compactifications, AdS/CFT and many more.
Another example of a considerable task force at IPhT is the group studying nonperturbative aspects of QCD, extremely competitive in all aspects of this domain, with the notable
exception of lattice computations.
A large human quota is also devoted to physics beyond the standard model, astroparticles
and cosmology. At IPhT perhaps more than elsewhere these subjects are close cousins,
due to a large number of cross-collaborations. This activity has benefited from a number
of recruitments in the recent past, and its dynamics is an evidence.
Condensed matter physics is also a huge theme that IPhT integrated to its scientific policy
only recently. This resulted in the recruitment of three physicists, all juniors about ten
years ago. This small group was reinforced by a recent hiring. In the meantime, it had
been able to provide a “technology watch”, and in particular strongly interact with the
other rather large condensed matter physics groups nearby, and with other members of
IPhT. This has led to a number of notable contributions. This small group has already
attracted two Blaise Pascal chairs (one of which was mainly hosted at IPhT). The emergence of AdS/CFT in condensed matter was a good opportunity to create new contacts
within the Institute.
8
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
Several IPhT members also devote a lot of attention to another very important “recent”
subject, out-of-equilibrium statistical physics, either via works on paradigmatic models, or
via general exact out-of-equilibrium relations, or finally via concrete applications, e.g. to
biology. This activity is also close to the study of complex systems in general, disordered
systems and spin glasses. There, attention is now focusing on granular materials and structural glasses.
Among the obvious gaps in the IPhT spectrum, the Institute cannot claim to have a group
working on biophysics. However, several physicists have a deep interest in biology (actually this is a tradition), resulting in a number of important contributions, ranging from
biology inspired theoretical physics, to theoretical physics applied to biology and used by
biologists.
Other activities can make significant progress by the efforts of a few.
Mathematical physics has seen some of its representatives get closer to pure mathematics,
with great success. One can note the works on dynamical systems and quantum chaos, but
also visible contributions to important combinatorial, probabilistic and algebraic geometry
problems come to mind: planar maps, Razumov-Stroganov type conjectures, cluster algebras, topological recursion equations coming from random matrix theory, quantum gravity.
As shown by work done at the Institute, random geometry can also be a fruitful path to
a better understanding of nonunitary quantum field theories, conformal or massive, via
logarithmic conformal field theories and super sigma models, with concrete applications in
condensed matter.
This list also illustrates the importance of the remarkable scientific environment provided
by the Saclay area. In particular, the integration of IPhT in the Direction des sciences
de la matière of CEA is a crucial asset for us. In high energy physics and astrophysics,
we have very close contacts with the Institut de recherches sur les lois fondamentales de
l’Univers (IRFU). The same is true for condensed matter and statistical physics, namely
with the Institut rayonnement matière de Saclay (IRAMIS), and to a lesser extent with
the Institut nanosciences et cryogénie (INAC, Grenoble).
1.6
Organization of the Institute
Demography
Compared with other entities devoted to theoretical physics worldwide, the size of IPhT
makes it one of the “giants". It hosts a bit more than one hundred and twenty persons (see
Table 2 below). The composition fluctuates rapidly due to the large number of temporary
researchers: the order of magnitude is thirty PhD students and forty Postdocs. There are
about fifty permanent researchers, either employed by CEA (about two thirds) or by CNRS
(about one third). The support team comprises less than ten persons (eight CEA and no
CNRS employee at the time of this writing), some of whom are shared with other Institutes
of the DSM (librarian, system administrators). Temporary work, payed on overheads of
external grants, is sometimes the only solution to keep the Institute running.
Functioning of the Institute
Even if the director of IPhT has the full responsibility for the decisions, the functioning
of the Institute is steeped in collegiality. This tradition has proved its usefulness over the
years and is reflected in a number of light structures which have a life of their own, but on
which the director heavily relies for advice.

– The closest help for daily decisions is provided by the two deputy directors and the
Institute secretary. A scheduled weekly meeting allows to efficiently cover the points that
touch at the same time scientific and administrative aspects of the life at the Institute, and
to review the progress of long term actions. This meeting is completed by daily informal
discussions.
– To deal with scientific issues, a scientific council meets regularly. The scientific council
is an internal structure with an advisory role, whose precise composition has fluctuated over
the years. The director and his deputies are ex-officio members. The other members are
renewed every two years via elections. Only permanent researchers are eligible. During the
first meeting after the elections, the scientific council may co-opt one or more members.
It also chooses a secretary responsible for preparing and scheduling meetings, and for
writing reports. The scientific council takes advice from members of the lab on specific
occasions. The main discussions concern recruitments, allocations, financial participation
to the organization of conferences, and in general anything that is relevant for the scientific
policy of the Institute. Permanent researchers are informed in advance of the agenda of
the next meeting, and can suggest further items.
– The Institute council is dedicated to daily life issues. The principles for its designation
and working are analogous to those governing the scientific council, with the important but
natural difference that not only permanent researchers are represented, but also the support
team, graduate students and postdocs. The role of the Institute council should become
more and more important in the forthcoming years, if only because of the spectacular rise
in the number of non-permanent members. Their adequate integration in the Institute is
one of the crucial challenges for the next years.
– For convenience the Institute has been subdivided into three thematic groups: “Structures and Models: Mathematical Physics”, “Particle Physics and Astrophysics”, and “Statistical Physics and Condensed Matter”. Groups are informal and very light structures.
While the frontiers are somewhat artificial, in that many researchers would naturally fit
into several groups (but had to choose one at some point), all the members of a group have
reasonably close centers of interest, which is the main "raison d’être" of groups. Another
one is their moderate size: a group comprises less than twenty permanent researchers. Put
together, these two features allow for collective debates which would be much harder to
organize and keep focused at the level of the Institute. Groups have no leaders, but each
group chooses a secretary, changed every couple of years or so, who is a natural interlocutor
for the direction of the Institute and the scientific council.
Groups elaborate motivated opinions on all the aspects of the scientific life of the Institute, in particular in the case of recruitments. They organize weekly topical seminars
at IPhT. Once upon a time, they were in charge of distributing a significant amount of
money for long term invitations (postdocs, long- and midterm visitors,...), which were de-
10
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
bated among the groups. These meetings sometimes lead to passionate discussions, which
brought as a side effect interesting scientific arguments to the fore.
During the last few years, more and more funding has come from individual grants, and
the number of postdocs directly funded by the Institute budget has drastically decreased.
The relevance and frequency of group meetings have diminished accordingly.
– On rarer occasions, a general assembly of the Institute is called by its director. Every
two years the Institute organized an 3-day internal workshop, which consisted in scientific
presentations, as well as general discussions on various matters.
A basic organigram in Appendix A.2 summarizes the administrative organization.
1.7
Understanding the past, preparing for the future
The last five years have witnessed some dramatic changes in the economic environment
in France, more generally in Europe. Though what happened at IPhT is doomed to be
anecdotal in this perspective, the Institute has changed at an accelerated pace, and some
of the world scale events have clearly impacted the French research system, and therefore
our Institute. The following remarks attempt to describe and (hopefully) understand the
situation of IPhT today and the stakes for tomorrow. They are meant as a detailed
counterpart and a useful flexible complement to the more formal SWOT analysis given
towards the end.
Explosion of short-term positions
One important trend is expansion. Though the number of permanent members has changed
only marginally, the number of students and postdocs has progressed extremely fast. It
has increased by a factor of 4 or 5 over the last ten years, and now represents significantly
more than half of the “crew”. The tendency for the next few years is stabilization. However,
the number of visitors (from one day visitors to sabbaticals, from trainees to permanent
members of neighboring institutions spending part of their time at IPhT) is also rapidly
expanding: having 130 people around is now a common situation. An increasing number
of foreign visitors come for an extended period with their own funding.
The attractiveness of IPhT for all categories of researchers, French and foreigners, from
beginners to highly visible seniors (including Blaise Pascal chairs), is clearly one of the
major assets of the Institute for the difficult time that we shall be facing.

Evolution of long-term positions
Concerning the evolution for the next ten years, another important fact will superpose
to this expansion. In 2010, new rules for retirements have been adopted by the French
chambers. Up to 2009, special agreements “forced” CEA employees to retire at the age of
60. Most physicists of this age argue with reason that they are still able to produce high
quality research, and IPhT has always found means to allow them to pursue their work

in good material conditions. The new horizon is now the age of 70. Since the number of
permanents at IPhT is programmed to decrease, the perspectives of new hirings at CEA
are very low, and those at CNRS are only slightly better. This will lead to a dramatic
destabilization of the age pyramid of the Institute.
Short-term/long-term positions balance
The transition from a “long-term positions dominated era” to a “short-term positions dominated era” seems to be irreversible in the foreseeable future. We might argue that IPhT
is one of the counterexamples to the nowadays dominant but nevertheless pre-conceived
idea that this evolution is a required condition for competitive research. But whatever our
opinion about this trend, we have to face it. This is a delicate challenge by itself. Ideally,
it should be combined with a voluntarist policy of hirings of “young senior” permanents.
But this is exactly what we shall not be able to do. The situation is quite worrisome. On
top of the crude fact that our French competitors will face similar problems —a meager
consolation— there are still a few reasons for hope.
First, the situation would clearly be worse if we had not succeeded in attracting a large
number of nonpermanents (students and postdocs) already. Second, about ten years ago
IPhT had the great opportunity to hire a large number of juniors. High quality people from
different horizons have enriched the lab on the scientific side, but also on more down-toearth issues. These people are by now young seniors, and they have already played a major
role in the successful adaptation of the Institute to the huge changes that have shaken the
traditions of French science over the last years: the transition from a “recurrent distributed
funding dominated era” to a “competitive targeted funding dominated era”. This leads us
to our next topic.
1.8
External fundings
Another trend is the increasing importance of external fundings. Ten years ago, external
fundings were totally marginal. In 2013, more than 95% of our postdocs are paid on
external fundings, and this figure also concerns invitations and travels. External fundings
have become vital for the Institute. They come from a number of sources. Europe is by
far our main provider, via Marie Curie programs and European Research Council (ERC)
grants. Then comes the French “Agence Nationale de la Recherche” (ANR), whose recent
evolutions are really a worry for us. The “Région Ile de France” (the Paris area) and several
more targeted sources (fundings for scientific exchanges with specific countries) come as
complements (the detail of these fundings is given in Appendix A.4).
There was some hope that other sources of funding would take an important role in the
near future, via large structures that have come to life in France recently. One of their
goals is to make French research more visible from the outside world, allowing to attract
top foreign students to French Universities or Grandes Écoles. These structures encompass
hundreds to thousands of researchers on specific themes.
They started a few years ago with the so-called “Réseaux Thématiques de Recherche
Avancée”. The major step was the launch in 2010 of the “Grand emprunt de la France:
Investissements d’avenir” (a reaction to the 2008 financial crisis) which is deeply reshaping
the French research landscape. Under the flag of “excellence”, new structures called Idex,
Equipex, Labex (the generic name “*ex” is used in the sequel) are by now active bodies of
the research system.
From our viewpoint, the contributions of these structures to the funding of IPhT are
bound to be modest. However, it is hard to estimate the impact these new structures will
12
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
have on the more traditional entities devoted to science in France, CNRS and CEA to quote
only the ones most relevant for the IPhT. The name “external funding” is to be contrasted
with funding directly, and regularly, coming from CEA or CNRS. These two organizations
are still paying the salaries of permanents at IPhT, they also provide access to journals.
CEA is in charge of the buildings and working environment. This will probably soon be
their only role. CEA (mainly) and CNRS still significantly contribute to direct scientific
activities (through invitations, travel money, conferences) but this funding is steadily and
rapidly decreasing. Obviously, the new structures will sooner or later have a dominant
position to orient the scientific policy of French research. This situation is a source of
worry for both CEA and CNRS employees at IPhT. In the past years, the CNRS has been
reorganized several times, possibly to adapt to this new situation. In the same period, the
CEA has not experienced such “jolts”, but its implication in the new structures is a clear
sign that important changes are on their way. These changes may also impact the relation
between IPhT and University, though it is too early to know exactly in which way. Let me
just note that IPhT already harbors a few professors (or assistant professors) for part of
their research, and that several members have a notable investment in teaching.
IPhT is directly involved in three Labex. P2IO, “Physique des deux infinis et des origines” covers our activities in particle physics and astrophysics. PALM, “Physique : Atomes,
Lumière, Matière” covers our activities in statistical mechanics, condensed matter physics
and biophysics. Our activities in mathematical physics participate to the “Fondation mathématique Jacques Hadamard” and the associated “Labex Hadamard”.

Table 4: External funding sources since 2008 (details in App. A.4)
Members and small groups at IPhT have in fact been remarkably successful in garnering
all kind of fundings. The most spectacular record concerns the highly competitive ERC
grants: nine of these have been hosted by IPhT. Some have started last year, but some
are already close to their end. The successes at ANR are also very noticeable. Let us just
quote, among the 32 ANR contracts involving our Institute, the three ANR excellentia
chairs attributed to recently recruited members. These successes are obviously the main
reason for the increasing size of the Institute, which should maintain itself for another three
or four years at least, and more generally for its visibility and attractiveness.
Though the evolutions of the French research landscape have been a great opportunity
for IPhT so far, it is clear that they also have had pervert side effects. A minimal amount
of recurrent funding is a sine qua non condition if the Institute is to keep some of the
features which made its worldwide reputation, and in particular the possibility to work on
long-term projects, without worrying too much about the fashion of the day.
Closer to experiment
A third important trend is to get closer to experiments. This is particularly striking in
Cosmology and Particle Physics. The role of the LHC is of course important, but many
other present or future instruments (RHIC, Planck, Euclid, Lisa,...) mobilize IPhT teams.
The tendency is also visible in Statistical Mechanics (structural glasses, granular materi-
Introduction
13
als,...), Condensed Matter (new materials, heavy fermions, graphene,...) and Biophysics
(motors, structure prediction, sequence alignment,...). It is clear enough from this short
description that the situation is hardly comparable because experiments in high energy
physics and condensed matter have totally different scales (time, cost,...).
To get closer to experiments, the birth of the “*ex” structures should have a significant
favorable incidence in the future, because they incorporate theoretical physicists in structures involving a fair majority of instrumentalists, and because one of their goals is to allow
transverse research.
1.9
Coding
The importance of computer science related activities has dramatically raised since the previous report. This goes from web servers for biophysics, to advanced software for condensed
matter physics, precision gauge theory computations or cosmology and astroparticles (see
Table 5). There is of course a long history of numerical computation and simulation in
Physics, but there is a clear shift in the approach. The aim is not simply to have a running code for an individual, a team or a community anymore, but to produce/furnish a
real software compliant with software standards. Portability and durability imply a need
for clarity, simplicity, readability, generality and modularity of the code. This is getting
more an more important in physics, and is probably going to lead to some new specializations in the near future. There is still plenty of room for good physicists inventing
good algorithms, because history shows that progress in computing hard problems often
(if not always) comes from a better understanding of the physics. But these new creative
algorithms have to be implemented respecting professional coding standards and without
wasting time in reinventing the standard algorithms. This requires close contacts between
physicists and computer scientists. A short term tendency seems to rely for this part on
students or postdocs coming from computer science but with a background in physics. The
future is likely to lead to more drastic evolutions.

Teaching and its asides
Our implication in teaching activities has also markedly evolved over the last years. We
have already alluded to the explosion of the number of PhD students at the Institute (see
Table 2 for figures, and App. A.7 for the list of theses defended at IPhT). To these “full
PhD students” one should add numerous master students, as well as a growing number
of external PhD students who decide to spend a long period (from 1 month to 1 year) at
IPhT. Many of these students are coming with their own funding.

Table 6: Students at IPhT
While the absence of teaching duties is envied by some of our colleagues at University,
and enjoyed by a number of permanents at the Institute, it is a fact that members of IPhT
are more and more willing to teach and more and more appealed to as well.
Officially a PhD advisor should have obtained a Habilitation thesis (HDR). For CNRS
members, the HDR is also required in order to be promoted “directeur de recherche”. This
is also the case at CEA (albeit with a few exceptions) and we strongly push our colleagues
to pass this diploma. During the period 2008–2013, six physicists (all CEA members) have
obtained their HDR (see App. A.7.1).
In the last 5 years, about half our permanent members have taught at the master or
postgraduate level, more rarely at the bachelor level, in nearby universities and Grandes
Ecoles, or in more distant places (see App. A.8). The involvement can be either punctual
(a few hours) or periodic (up to 60 hours per year).
The policy of CEA on these matters is still under elaboration and subject to contradictory influences. On one side, CEA is deeply involved in the construction of the new
Paris-Saclay University that should officially come to life by the end of the year. On the
other side, our teaching activities are watched over by the CEA human resources much
more than they used to be. This is a worry for us because they represent a crucial way
to spot promising students, make them aware of the existence and quality of the Institute,
and attract them for internships and PhDs.
One important action of the Institute, recognized as such and copied since then by
our “competitors" in the Paris area, is the organization of the “IPhT lectures”, offering
every year 5–6 topical courses targeting students and researchers (see the program of these
lectures in App. A.8). The lecturers are mostly IPhT permanents, but high-flying visitors
are also called upon on occasion. The quality of these lectures and their recognition by
the Universities of the Paris area play an important role in our visibility for a macroscopic
fringe of the scientific population.
Apart from these regular teaching activities, our members deliver lectures in many
summer schools all around the world. We have taken our share in the organization of such
schools (see App. A.8), most ofen in the “traditional” Les Houches or Cargèse centers. As an
example, we have resurrected the annual Statistical physics summer schools in Beg-Rohu.
1.11
More on Visibility
We have already mentioned the increasing number of graduate students, postdocs and
(long- and short-term) visitors. Many high-rise foreign academics are coming back every
year for several weeks, considering our Institute as a “haven” where they can devote all
their time and thought to research.
Another face of our visibility consists in the numerous conferences we participate in as
invited speakers, or that we (co)-organize. In App. A.5.3 we list all the events organized
Introduction
15
at IPhT and outside; most of the events are located in France, but a large number of them
take place in Europe or overseas. Our involvement can vary from local, down-to-earth
organizer, to member of the advisory committee for large international conferences.
More locally, we also co-organize various periodic events in the Paris area. Beside our
own seminars at IPhT (see App. A.5.1), some of us co-organize joint seminars: the Séminaire Poincaré taking place twice a year at the Institut Henri Poincaré (Paris) and leading
to a book series, the Condensed Matter Seminar with LPS Orsay, the joint “Séminaire de
la Fédération de physique statistique de Paris-Sud”, the monthly seminar “Spectral problems in mathematical physics” at IHP, the joint IPhT-SPP bi-annual meeting (Service de
Physique des Particules of CEA/IRFU), the “Jounrnées de physique statistique” in Paris,
as well as several less formal “Groupes de travail”. Some of these joint seminars are funded
by collective structures or networks.
Other activites also participate in the visibility of our Institute. Many of us are members of editorial boards of journals (see App. A.10). Another, less “visible” but no less
important activity, consist in various form of external research administration. Many of
our members participate in steering, scientific, evaluation, hiring committees of external
bodies or institutions (see App. A.11). A recent example: one of our members was recently
elected in the academic senate of the new Université Paris-Saclay. The accumulation of
new “collective structures” in the French research system implies that these administrative
activities will be more demanding in the coming years.
Excellentia
As the reader will surely have noticed, “excellence” has been the buzzword over the
last few years, and it has become a label, hence possibly also a Grail, at all scales from
individuals to vast geographic areas. It is timely to try to explain the position and situation
of IPhT.
A simple mark of the “excellence” of an Institute consists in the prizes received by
its members. In the last 5 years we have obtained some high-level prizes, described in
App. A.3.
I do hope that the review of the evaluation committee will conclude that, averaged over
the Institute, the result is indeed excellent. What I know for sure is that people at IPhT
(and elsewhere in the other scientific institutions) do their very best to produce excellent
research.
The question is more on how much energy we should put in the excellentia structures. These
labels have only a modest amount of money per researcher to distribute, but following their
development can be time consuming, so they seem better adapted to the possibilities and
needs of entities larger than IPhT.
The position of IPhT in this respect is contrasted. Some of us feel that we have no
choice but to participate in every competition/call, while some others would accept some
cuts (in money, invitations, travels) to protect their tranquility and comfort. There is a
spectrum of intermediate positions.
One can interpret some of the changes at IPhT (and possibly more generally in French
research) over the last decade or so, as a metaphor of economic globalization. Some people
argue that this passage was totally unavoidable. As the history of real economy shows, even
if this is true in average, it does not mean that all other strategies were doomed to failure:
in some places original niche strategies have been (even more) successful. In fact, IPhT
enjoyed some specificities which made it world famous, and could have made it a successful
candidate for alternative development models. One could even argue that some of the
evolutions have developed at the cost of part of our originality. It is nevertheless a fact
16
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
that in the 1990’s IPhT firmly engaged in a series of important changes, starting with the
implementation of regular reviews by international scientific committees and (soon after) of
a new, opened, hiring process. The situation today is clearly very influenced by this move.
Most of the members of our former international scientific committees and of the people
hired since 1995 had been exposed early to the American (or close to American) research
systems. They find it natural to apply for grants and to build a group of students and
postdocs around them. But the older (and equally successful as far are producing science
is concerned) IPhT “philosophy”, often based on close collaborations among permanents,
is still vivid.
1.12
Challenges for the future
It is a deeply human tendency to attribute our successes to ourselves, and our failures to
external circumstances. This bias is true at the level of individuals, but pervades all levels
of human activities. The IPhT is of course no exception.
We are also used to attribute to all these levels of activities some purely human attributes
like personality, will, etc. While this can be partly true (for example when a company has
a clear emblematic leader), this is often deeply misleading.
I would like to argue in the following remarks that these two general facts are crucial
to understand the future challenges facing IPhT (among others).
The first and clearest challenge for the future is the quality and originality of research,
either measured by the “excellentia” or by other traits. Though only the future can tell,
the reading of this report gives me strong reasons to be confident. I hope other readers
will share this view.
It is excessive to view the good work done at IPhT as a scientific success of IPhT. My
predecessors, with the help of internal and external scientific committees, deserve credit to
have hired and brought together good people. But from then on, whatever is done is done
by individuals, or very small groups. So the main challenge is for individuals.
For competitive research, one of the important tools today is funding1 . The situation
is, as already noted, excellent today. But the future is very uncertain. In particular, the
sources for the the most competitive and profitable grants are essentially European and
it can be feared that our remarkable successes of the past have exhausted our pool. This
is reinforced by the low recruitment perspectives. At the same time, the sources for more
accessible grants, ANR for instance, see a drastic fall of their means. The motives to be
confident despite the aforementioned obstacles are in the qualities of the IPhT crew, and
again the challenge of maintaining a high external funding level is mainly for individuals.
However, these two individual challenges lead to a cascade of challenges for the administration of IPhT (and of the levels higher up : the DSM, the CEA, the INP, the CNRS...).
Here is a non-exhaustive list.
The main managing tool for a scientific policy is recruitment, either permanent or longterm positions. In this matter, the situation is quite alarming. As already mentioned, the
question of permanent positions is relegated to the far future. This should incite us to be
even more careful in the choice of postdocs and long term visitors. But by now the money
to pay these visitors mostly comes from targeted individual grants. If the needs fit with a
grant goals, I’m confident that the grant holder will make clever choices. But a view at the
1 Let us note however that compared to most other scientific activities, theoretical physics can survive for some time with
a very small input of resources, of course with an impact on competitiveness if others, in France or abroad, keep important
means.
Introduction
17
level of the Institute is crucial as well. For instance, what was done about a decade ago
for string theory and condensed matter, namely the creation ex nihilo of a group, would
be totally impossible today.
The diversification of financial resources over the last years has mechanically led to
an explosion of administrative tasks. The recent hardenings of the implementation of the
French employment law have amplified this tendency. Both the number and the complexity
of tasks are at least one or two orders of magnitude higher than what they were ten years
ago. The situation is critical. The dedication and skill of our administrative group, plus
the affectation of more and more time and energy of the deputy directors of IPhT to these
tasks (at the cost of neglecting other important issues) are reaching their limits. The same
observations apply probably at higher levels in the CEA and CNRS.
As already mentioned, the number of people present daily at IPhT well exceeds hundredand-twenty, and a macroscopic raise, possibly temporary, of the number of offices would be
welcome. It is to be noted that, in the meantime, people not interested in getting funding
share the inconveniences with people having funding for a number of visitors. The quality
of life, at least if measured by the area per physicist, is deteriorating rapidly. But spatial
extension comes with another challenge: the population of IPhT is not only larger, but also
more and more heterogeneous, with people coming from diverse horizons and expecting to
spend a limited period in the Institute. A risk of “phase separation” is emerging, people
with the same interests demanding to occupy neighboring offices. At the same time, the
new “*ex” structures will sooner or later create an incentive for both permanent and nonpermanent people to be more delocalized. Good or bad, these tendencies are new at IPhT
and require some thinking.
The management of short term positions is one of the sources of worry for the Institute.
Our conviction is that the Institute, and in particular the supervisors, must feel responsible
for people who spend a couple of years (sometimes just a few months) among us. At a time
when finding permanent positions in research and in industry becomes harder and harder,
we feel that this is a human duty; but it is also our conviction that our care is necessary
if those people are to give their best during their stay, and then take away and spread a
positive image of the Institute. Keeping track of all those who spend from a few month to
a few years among us, and being able to follow their career development after they have
left, is a necessary (but nontrivial) task. Including them in the daily life of the Institute
is also a challenge, and we have recently started to tackle this issue, for instance via the
representation of nonpermanents in the Institute council, or the organization of monthly
get-together events. Yet much remains to be done, and the well-being of our temporary
members is one of our priorities.
1.13
A resume of Strategy and Project
A very short resume is that we intend to meet the challenges alluded to above.
But to be concrete, the rather long analysis made in the previous sections needs to be
summarized and turned into a usable tool. like a SWOT analysis. Though such a formal
tool necessarily overlooks some of the intricacies of the context and situation at IPhT, it
directly connects to the elements of strategy for the next five years period.

OPPORTUNITIES
Science
• The Paris-Saclay University will allow for a more transparent access to teaching for those who desire

• Indirectly, the explosion of the number of funding sources, because we have a
good experience of rapid responsiveness
Introduction
19
• Philanthropy (though this raises delicate issues)
Administration
• We do not identify opportunities
THREATS
Science
• Incentives for many of our members to spend time in other places, a tendency
favored by the large scale *ex projects
• Dilution in structures poorly adapted to our size and way of functioning.
• Dying out of our specificities in a melting pot of large scale governance
• An already visible shift from fundamental research to application-targeted
research
Resources
• Complete vanishing of recurrent support, with only a partial transfer towards
targeted calls into
• Difficulties to pay even the salaries of permanent CEA members
Administration
• The new structures (*ex, University Paris Saclay, and so on) will significantly
contribute to the explosion of administrative tasks
Strategy
Though strategy is of crucial importance especially in difficult periods like the one we face
today, the room for maneuver is minimal. The IPhT faces a number of problems. The
typical situation is that each of these problems taken individually calls for natural countermeasures, but those are unavailable as part of another problem. Realism thus demands
that we concentrate on a very few basic and modest, yet concrete actions:
Scientific policy at IPhT is a delicate issue. We
• Abandon any dream of changing the Institute’s scientific profile via recruitments. Note
that during the past, most of the time an opportunistic attitude, hiring of the best
candidate1 , has prevailed anyway2 .
• Identify, in the next years, PhD grants funded by CEA as one of our main lever arms
to either slightly bend the scientific orientations of the Institute, or keep alive certain
themes even if they are not in the fashion of the day. Of course, this can only be
efficient if the number of those grants remains comparable to the present figures.
• Intend to preserve freedom of research. We shall refrain to interfere high-handedly
with the research themes of our permanents (with the exception of the management
of severe personal problems if any of course).
• Shall enhance our communication towards our hierarchy and towards the scientific
community. This effort has already started thanks to the involvement of a small
informal “communication unit” inside the Institute. The strategy is to put to the
fore not only landmarks (i.e. spectacular single publications) but also highlights (i.e.
longer term series of investigation), and explain the importance of even the more
technical contributions.

aware of the limits of the objectivity of this qualifier.
notable exceptions took place at the end of the last millennium, at a moment when a sustained flux of recruitments
made it possible to set up and pursue a coherent strategy for a long enough period to build a string theory group and a
condensed matter group, while keeping an eye on opportunities in non-targeted themes.
2 Two
20
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
Recruitment is the main black spot for the next years. As far as the Institute’s scientific
strategy is concerned, we cannot rely on positions provided by external funding, if only
because they are given to individuals, not to the Institute, and are in general nonpermanent.
With no recruitment to expect on the CEA side, and little recurrent funding, we need to
concentrate on affordable but efficient actions. Our strategy is to capitalize on the dynamics
of our present attractiveness:
• To obtain the appointments of some new recruits of CNRS (however, although CNRS
has consulted its associated units to establish a recruitment strategy, this was done
at a collective level, and cannot fit our needs as well as previous CEA recruitments
directly managed by the Institute)
• To favor targeted mobility toward IPhT (by part-time hosting, CNRS transfers, University teaching backbuying,...)
• To convince our hierarchy at CEA and CNRS that providing a high quality support
team at IPhT is essential and represents a good investment
Funding is another capital issue for the next years. We plan to
• Encourage our members to search new fundings. We intend to do this by pedagogy,
and not by constraint. Freedom is one of the keywords of our Institute. This is not just
an abstract philosophy, but is based on the experience that what is done voluntarily
is done well. The next items are meant to promote this pedagogy,
• Develop a light-weight structure, capitalizing on our successful past experiences, to
help project holders prepare the scientific aspects of the reviews via critical overviews,
but also to identify high-potential scientists and encourage them to apply to calls for
projects,
• Keep and develop the skills of our support team to help project holders prepare
the ever more complicated administrative aspects of funding and keep their focus on
scientific issues,
• Pursue our “technology watch” effort to locate opportunities, and in particular target
the most profitable calls, especially in terms of overheads.
Project
It is not a totally straightforward task to identify a project for IPhT for the next five
years, beyond the vague “dedication to high quality academic research”. The spectrum of
theoretical physics studied at the Institute is broad, and though each permanent member
has a personal scientific project, integrating them all into a coherent collective project is
irrealistic. However
• The theme “Cosmology and Particle Physics” is naturally structured by large-scale
experimental projects (LHC, Euclid, ...) and focused on fondamental issues (nature
of the neutrino masses, electroweak symmetry breaking, dark matter and energy,
gravitational waves, quark-gluon plasma properties,...). These unifying trends will
cement the individual projects of our permanents for the next few years.
• The theme “Models and Structures: Mathematical Physics” works on a rather different
model. The notable inflexions of the last decade towards closer relations between
mathematical physics and mathematics are most likely to be growing in importance
in the near future, and this will be a strong unifying force for the theme.
Presentation of the Institute
21
• The theme “Statistical Physics, Condensed Matter and Biophysics” is by nature more
diverse and eclectic, but is however marked by a trend towards more concrete applications1 , and again this should be of growing relevance in the near future, though this
time probably without a unifying effect.
It seems that IPhT is in a good position to participate at a high level to all these activities.
But their specificities indicate that in the future a good integration in the corresponding
larger communities will be crucial.
This is why the policy which started in the participation of the IPhT in three Labex
will be actively pursued to favor the integration of the Institut in three Departments —still
under discussion at the moment, and roughly covering the perimeters of the Labex— of
the upcoming Université Paris-Saclay.
This deeper rooting in three distinct communities is of course a double-edged gamble
and the direction of IPhT is also planning to actively work to preserve the clear theoretical
physics blend of the Institute, characterized by its synthetic approach to problems, and
by the mastery of unifying physical concepts and mathematical tools. The best guarantee
that this is possible is of course the large overlap between the three themes, more than
half of the permanents being involved in at least two of them. Put together, the preserved
coherence of the Institute and its deeper anchoring in the communities should allow for an
efficient flow of new ideas. But finding the right balance between the two is going to be
nontrivial, and requires specific actions.
In our view, one of the most promising lines of action is via a deeper involvment in
teaching, and again the Paris-Saclay University is a great opportunity. Integrating the
IPhT lectures in this larger structure, developing them and augmenting their visibility
(for instance by making “IPhT Lecture Notes” widely available), making IPhT a reference
place for students or more senior researchers looking for high-level concise introductions to
current topics, will crucially allow to reinforce the perception of IPhT as a coherent (and
useful) entity, both for its members and the outside world. The precise contours of these
actions are still vague2 , yet the direction is clear.
IPhT is ready and willing to enter the next challenges of science and research on the
one hand, and of a new, more open, era of the Saclay plateau on the other hand.
In conclusion, the economy of the future at IPhT will require delicate balances: obtain
fundings for projects but avoid to see our research targeted by fashion; take our share in
the giant structures that are emerging on the Saclay plateau without getting dissolved into
them; preserve creative thinking without losing sight of strategic management; leave a lot
of room for individual initiative, but keep a strong feeling for collective interests; offer to
all the members of the Institute —permanent or not— working conditions that allow them
to give their best.
The devotion of physicists for physics (at IPhT and elsewhere) is the best guarantee that
we shall be able to win the challenges of the future, and I’m already eager to see how the
main challenge for our Institute, the one for scientific inventiveness and originality, will be
met in the next years.

CHAPTER 2
Scientific production
We now describe in some detail our research activities. For convenience we divide it into
three main themes. For each theme we start with a global (yet, not exhaustive) overview,
and then present 7-8 highlights in more detail. Each highlight focusses on a series of articles
devoted to a more precise topic, and generally encompass the activities of several members
of the Institute. The delicate task of selecting these highlights was done by our scientific
council, it necessarily bears some arbitrariness. Nevertheless, we hope this choice will give
the reader a faithful image of our activities.

Mathematical physics - structures and models
This theme spans a wide range of topics, from low-dimensional classical or quantum
dynamical systems to string theory, via 2-dimensional quantum gravity, random matrix
models, statistical models, integrable systems, conformal or supersymmetric field theories.
In spite of this variety, many of these subjects are deeply interconnected and use a common
ensemble of theoretical tools, many of which having been developed over the years in our
Institute.
Classical and quantum dynamical systems
Let us start with very simple systems, namely 1D classical oscillators. We have shown that
the presence of a multiplicative noise can drastically modify the long time behaviour of
the system, for instance can lead to a form of intermittency, very sensitive to the power
spectrum of the noise. Such noisy oscillators can describe as diverse physical phenomena
as the population dynamics in a random medium, or the interplay between disorder and
nonlinearity in the 1D nonlinear Schrödinger equation. On the opposite, magnetohydrodynamics can be viewed as an infinite dimensional dynamical system. The kinematic dynamo
problem addresses the instability of the magnetic field in the induction equation driven by
a given velocity field, neglecting the feedback of the magnetic field on the flow. In view
of several experimental setups (one of which realized at CEA in Cadarache), the choice
of a realistic velocity profile is crucial to determine the instability threshold. As a first
approximation to the realistic situation of a turbulent flow, we have added a stochastic
component to a regular velocity flow, and analyzed its effect on the instability threshold.
Instead of adding noise to a classical dynamical system, one can quantize it, and study
the properties of the quantum system in the semiclassical régime. If the original dynamics
is chaotic one enters the realm of Quantum Chaos, which addresses the question: “How
does chaos manifest itself in the quantum system?” A quest for tractable toy models
can lead to number theory: the zeros of Riemann’s zeta function are often presented as
a mock spectrum for quantized chaotic systems. We have investigated this spectrum by
constructing and carefully analyzing a family of secondary zeta functions. Our attention
has also turned to nonhermitian aspects of Quantum Chaos: using common semiclassical
tools, we have analyzed the resonance spectra of quantum scattering systems admitting a
chaotic classical dynamics (like the scattering by 3 disks on the plane), the decay of damped
waves propagating in a chaotic domain, or the decay of correlations of a classical chaotic
flow (this decay is also governed by complex valued resonances), thereby using quantum
methods to understand classical dynamics!
Remaining in quantum mechanics, we have addressed fundamental (“foundational”)
questions, like the interplay between reversibility, locality and causality, with the pedagogical aim to clarify the importance and role of each concept. Ancient puzzles concerning
quantum measurement and decoherence, rejuvenated by recent cavity QED experiments,
have been studied with the help of novel theoretical tools. For instance, we have found
that a succession of nondemolition indirect measurements eventually leads to the textbooklike phenomenon of wavefunction collapse. To study the decoherence of a spin interacting
with a complex environment, a new random matrix model has been introduced and exactly solved, allowing to observe the transition between Markovian and non-Markovian
behaviours, as well as the emergence of classicality. This random matrix model is now
being generalized to study the dynamics of a cluster of N interacting spins.

Random matrices, statistical models, quantum gravity
Our Institute has a long tradition of studying statistical models enjoying rich algebraic
structures, often referred to as “integrability”. These structures or symmetries can take
various forms; uncovering them and using them appropriately allows to compute physically relevant quantities in nonperturbative régimes. Below we give examples of methods
and applications to statistical physics and “quantum gravity”, trying to emphasize the
intertwining between different methods.
Random Matrix Theory (RMT) enjoys applications to many domains in physics, mathematics, statistics or econophysics. IPhT has contributed significantly to the developments
of these models since the 1960s. A few years ago we introduced a new method (called
topological recursion) to compute the large-N expansions for the partition or correlation
functions in such models: each term in the expansion can be computed through a universal recursion formula, which only uses the knowledge of the “spectral curve”, an analytic
function representing the asymptotic spectral density of the matrices. A far-reaching idea
consisted in extending this recursion method to arbitrary (but well-chosen) analytic curves,
such as to compute large-N expansions relevant to various problems (e.g. scattering amplitudes in topological string theory, various models in statistical physics, enumerative
geometry, or knot theory). With a view towards nonhermitian matrix models, we have
also developed a noncommutative version of the method, which should be connected with
refinements of the gauge/gravity dualities.
One application of RMT is to generate sums over random surfaces (each “Feynman
diagram” of the RMT being viewed as a discrete surface). Random surfaces are relevant
to several domains of physics: in “2D quantum gravity”, these surfaces are viewed as 2D
universes, and summing over makes up the “path integral” over all possible universes; when
attempting to write a quantum theory of strings (observe that space-time trajectories of
strings form surfaces); in statistical physics (fluctuating surfaces naturally occur in soft
matter physics, in growth phenomena). Beside RMT, random surfaces can be investigated
through various approaches.
A combinatorial alternative to RMT consists in a direct enumeration of discretized
surfaces (called “maps” due to their resemblance with geographic maps). We have obtained
recent important results on the exact enumeration of maps, including situations where each
map is dressed with a statistical model (“matter” degrees of freedom) like the Ising, Potts
or O(n) loop model. Beyond a bare enumeration of random maps, we have shed light on
the geometry of geodesics of the random surface, which emerges from the graph distance
on the map when considering the continuous limit of large maps.
Alternatively, one can investigate continuous random surfaces using the Liouville Quantum Gravity (LQG): the associated random measure is obtained by exponentiating the
massless Gaussian free field. The Knizhnik-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov (KPZ) equations,
discovered 25 years ago, relate the critical exponents (at a phase transition) of statistical
models living on the random surface, with the exponents of the same model living on Euclidean space. Recent works at IPhT provided, for the first time, a mathematical proof of
these relations, using modern probabilistic tools. A rigorous connection between the LQG
and the Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) was also established. With a view towards
relating the discrete geometry on random maps with LQG, we have been able to show that
the latter satisfies the same topological recursion as random maps, and then computed the
asymptotic expansions relevant to the Liouville theory.
The random surface of a crystal can also be described by using algebraic objects, like
Young diagrams, dimer models or lozenge tilings. We have understood the relation between the exact enumeration of lozenge tilings and the multidegrees of some algebraic
26
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
varieties, thus establishing a link with algebraic geometry. Some results concern the exact enumeration of Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions, related with
the quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation and the generalized Razumov-Stroganov
conjecture. In another approach we have shown how to rewrite a lozenge tiling partition
function as a RMT; this identification justified the previous observation that universal
continuous limits are related with RMT, but it also allowed us to compute the subleading corrections to the continuous limit, using the topological recursion method. Cluster
algebras, a powerful machinery introduced about 10 years ago in mathematics, constitute
another promising tool to study integrable statistical models. A cluster algebra consists
in a structured dynamical system: the data (cluster variables), defined at the vertices of
an infinite regular tree, evolve via rational transformations along the edges. We have been
able to identify cluster variables with partition functions of certain integrable statistical
models; this observation allowed us to prove an elusive “cluster positivity conjecture”. We
have also extended this identification to a noncommutative setting, opening the way to a
new form of “noncommutative integrability”.
In addition to the minimal (unitary) Conformal Field Theories (CFT) appearing in
quantum gravity, applications to the physics of disordered condensed matter often involve
logarithmic CFTs (called so due to the appearance of logarithmic terms in correlation functions), which are nonunitary. These CFTs are also relevant in applications to the AdS/CFT
correspondence. They are much less understood than their unitary counterparts, due to a
more intricate representation theory of the conformal symmetry. Instead of an algebraic
representation theory approach, we have developed several new methods to investigate
these theories. Our main input was the introduction of lattice regularizations, which could
be thoroughly studied using integrability methods, guided by extensive numerical simulations. We thus managed to solve several supersymmetric sigma models, and construct a
general formalism allowing to tackle certain boundary logarithmic CFTs, with applications
to the spin quantum Hall effect.
Quantum Field Theory and String Theory
Integrability methods have also played a crucial role in the study of the AdS/CFT correspondence, namely the conjectured duality between a weakly coupled string theory on
Anti-de Sitter spacetime, and a strongly coupled supersymmetric gauge theory on the
Minkowski spacetime. We have made important progress in the study of the maximally
supersymmetric (N = 4) 4D gauge theory, which appears on the gauge side of this correspondence. The planar limit of this theory is expected to be integrable, a property
allowing to compute correlation functions beyond perturbation theory. One of the goals
of such computations is to test the AdS/CFT duality. Using integrability techniques like
the Bethe Ansatz, we have been able to compute the anomalous dimensions of Konishi
operators at 6-loop order, identify the superconformal symmetry in those theories, and
compute various gluon scattering amplitudes. All our results agree with the perturbative string theory predictions, which validates the AdS/CFT correspondence so far. By
generalizating the gauge/gravity correspondence, we hope to obtain nonperturbative informations for more general strongly coupled gauge theories, possibly relevant to real-world
systems (e.g. strongly coupled QCD describing the quark-gluon plasma). An important
task performed at IPhT is the construction of new gauge/gravity solutions: 4D theories
with less supersymmetry, theories describing the deconfinement phase transition in 3D,
nonconformal lower-dimensional theories similar to those appearing in condensed matter
physics.
Away from integrability methods, the structure of the ultraviolet divergences in string

27
and supergravity amplitudes at higher loop order have been investigated using the explicit
construction of the automorphic forms representing the duality group of the theory. These
divergences have been independently confirmed by explicit amplitude computations. One
long term objective is, again, to understand the structure of the amplitudes in less symmetric theories, like QCD or pure quantum gravity. In the context of 4D scalar field theories,
the exact renormalization group equations have been carefully analyzed, in order to control
the possible singularities of their solutions through rigorous, near-optimal upper bounds.
We have already explained how string theory represents a powerful computational tool
for certain strongly coupled gauge theories, through the gauge/gravity duality. Another,
more fundamental goal of string theory is phenomenological: one wishes to recover the Standard Model of particles and the cosmological structure of our universe (presently thought
to be of de Sitter type, due to a positive cosmological constant), as effective low energy
limits of a well-chosen string theory. Since the latter lives in 10 dimensions, one needs to
wrap the 6 remaining dimensions onto compact spaces (manifolds), the choice of compactification being determinant to both the particle spectrum and the geometry of the universe.
In this view, a major activity at IPhT consists in classifying the compactifications on 6D
manifolds. One mathematical tool we have used is generalized complex geometry, which
allows to represent both matter and metric degrees of freedom into common “geometrical”
data. Another related task is the computation of quantum corrections to supergravity,
with the consequence to exhibit more realistic effective gauge theories. Finally, recovering
our de Sitter universe from a string theory “vacuum” is a difficult task. A scenario had been
proposed 10 years ago, starting from the huge “landscape” of Anti de Sitter (AdS) vacua,
and lifting these vacua into de Sitter vacua by adding various objects (anti-D-branes). Recent investigations at IPhT have discovered that this scenario leads to solutions exhibiting
singularities which do not appear to be physical, hence this scenario seems inapplicable.
This negative result could drastically modify our view of phenomenological string theory.
A third objective of string theory is to understand the structure of black holes, and
address longstanding problems attached to them, like the information paradox, the physics
of cosmological singularities, or the microscopic origin of the Beckenstein-Hawking black
hole entropy. In this aim, we have been intensely pursuing a research programme whose
aim is to establish and test the “fuzzball proposal”, according to which a black hole is
a statistical ensemble of horizonless, supergravity and string theory solutions that share
the same geometry as the black hole away from the horizon. Using various analytical
methods (including the AdS/CFT correspondence), we have been constructing more and
more classes of supersymmetric, nonsupersymmetric, or nonextremal microstates, with the
aim to fully account for the black hole entropy.

Quantum dynamics, measurements and decoherence
Over the last few years, the experimental and theoretical study of simple quantum systems has
progressed at an accelerated pace. The development of ultra-fast electronics and low temperature
devices has made it possible to test quantum mechanics to an unprecedented level of detail.
As is often the case, these experimental breakthroughs have revived questions of fundamental
theoretical impact, including the problems of quantum measurement, wave function collapse and
decoherence. Though many aspects of quantum mechanics still puzzle the theoretical physicist,
and questions that used to belong to the realm of philosophical interpretations little by little
enter the more familiar territory of explicit computations.
The dynamics of simple open quantum systems For the non-demolition case (the system-probe incan be studied exactly when its Hamiltonian (or part teractions preserve a basis of the system Hilbert

topological recursion
Figure 1: The topological recursion
The large N limit of the spectral density of a random matrix is an algebraic plane curve, i.e. a certain
Riemann surface embedded in C2 (e.g. Wigner’s
semi-circle). The knowledge of that curve is sufficient to reconstruct (by a universal “topological recursion") all subleading terms in the large N expansion of any correlation function. In other words, the
plane curve entirely characterizes the probability law
of the random matrix.
Reversing the point of view, one can use the
same recursion to associate a “pseudo"-random matrix law to any algebraic plane curve, i.e. associate
a sequence of correlation functions to a curve. This
defines “invariants" of the plane curve. These invariants depend on the embedding of the curve in C2 ,
modulo symplectomorphisms of C2 ; this powerful
symmetry is closely related to integrability [t11/201]
and symplectic geometry.
Since 2008 we have studied general mathematical properties of those invariants, as well as many
applications.
These invariants are often easy to compute, whereas
(very often) no other method is known to compute the expansions beyond leading order. Also, we
proved that for any curve, the invariants can be written as string theory-like amplitudes in a target space
constructed from the curve (a kind of mirror symmetric) [t11/045, t11/200]. This allows to represent
the topological recursion as a set of rules of cutting
surfaces into pieces (see fig. 1)
Applications of this formalism: choose one’s
favourite statistical physics or geometric enumeration problem, and look for (guess) the curve whose
invariants will provide the corresponding correlation
functions. Most often the curve is a very natural object in the problem. Vice versa, one may choose a
favourite plane curve and try to identify the nature
of its invariants.
Here are a few examples:
– Enumeration of 3D partitions: the curve is the
Legendre transform of the limit shape (the "arctic
circle"). Kenyon-Okounkov-Sheffield proved that for
plane partitions in a box, the arctic circle is the
smallest degree algebraic curve tangent to all boundaries [t08/056, t09/050].
Figure 2: Limit shape of a 3d partition
– For Gromov-Witten invariants of – take a toric
6D Calabi-Yau manifold, and take the curve to be
its mirror symmetric: you then compute the the
Gromov-Witten invariants of the manifold (appearing in topological string theory) [t10/029, t10/099,
t11/169]. This important conjecture was proved at
IPhT in 2012 [t12/030].
– A recent conjecture by Dijkgraaf-Fuji claims
that the invariants of a knot (Jones or Homfly polynomials) are the invariants of the “character variety" of the knot, a well-known curve in knot theory. This conjecture generalizes Kashaev’s famous
“volume conjecture". We have checked many cases
[t11/134, t12/037].
– If the curve is the classical energy-momentum
tensor of Liouville CFT, the invariants compute the
heavy limit expansion of correlators in the quantum
Liouville CFT [t12/075].
- Back to RMT: if the curve is the equilibrium
density of eigenvalues, the invariants yield correlation functions to arbitrary order; a simple curve
yields the Tracy-Widom distribution.
- Applications to statistical physics: if the curve
is the generating function of rooted planar maps,
possibly carrying an O(n) loop model, an Ising
model or a Potts model, then the invariants are the
generating series of the same model on random maps
of higher topologies [t09/160].

The nested loop approach to the O(n) loop model on
random maps
A longstanding open question concerns the geometry of random maps coupled to a critical matter
model. We make a first step in the exploration of this problem via a combinatorial approach.
Figure 1: A large random planar triangulation endowed with loops (left) and the corresponding typical configuration
inside a given loop (right), as seen after flattening.
The essence of two-dimensional quantum gravity
consists in defining a “sum over surfaces”. A natural
way to make such a sum meaningful is by discretization: the partition function is defined as a sum over
triangulations, or their generalizations called maps,
possibly carrying decorations modelling matter degrees of freedom. One may for instance consider
loops (self- and mutually avoiding curves) drawn
onto the maps: this yields the celebrated O(n) loop
model, where n is the weight assigned to each loop
(see Fig. 1 for a sample configuration).
Beyond the computation of the partition function and related critical exponents, interesting questions arise when studying the local geometry of large
random maps (such as their metric or fractal properties). In the absence of matter (the case of socalled pure gravity), the situation is by now well
understood: the universal scaling limit, the Brownian map, has been rigorously defined and many of
its properties studied (its Hausdorff dimension is 4,
the law of the distances between up to three random points is known exactly, etc). In contrast, almost nothing is known when matter is added to the
picture and, in particular, there are several contradictory predictions for the Hausdorff dimension at a
matter critical point.
Recently, Le Gall and Miermont introduced a
model of random maps with non generic scaling
limit, whose Hausdorff dimension may vary between
2 and 4. Their model does not however rely on
adding matter to the surfaces but requires instead
the fine-tuning of infinitely many parameters. In a
series of papers [t11/148, t12/013, t12/055], we show
that the same model emerges spontaneously at critical points of the O(n) loop model on random maps.
By a recursive decomposition of the configurations upon cutting the loops [t11/148] (see Fig. 2),
we obtain a set of self-consistent equations for the
partition function of the O(n) loop model. This allows to recover combinatorially equations previously
obtained via matrix models and to extend them to
a larger class of models. Several cases are exactly
solvable, allowing a full determination of the phase
diagram. These include loops with bending energy
[t12/013] and the Potts model [t12/055] (classically
reformulated in terms of loops) for which we demonstrate the existence of non self-dual critical points.
Figure 2: Recursive decomposition of the configuration
of Fig. 1 into a gasket (top), loop rings (middle) and
internal configurations (bottom).
Most interestingly, our approach shows that the
gasket of a critical loop configuration (the map obtained after erasing all loop interiors) falls into the
class studied by Le Gall and Miermont, with a non
generic scaling limit. A simple relation between the
loop weight n ∈ [−2, 2] and the gasket Hausdorff
dimension is deduced [t11/148].

Liouville Quantum Gravity & KPZ
In 1988, Knizhnik, Polyakov and Zamolodchikov discovered the celebrated KPZ relation between
critical exponents in a planar statistical system and their counterparts in Liouville quantum

A canonical relation to the Schramm-Loewner Evolution (SLE) is also established.

Cluster algebras: integrability, combinatorics and
statistical physics
The theory of cluster algebras is a powerful machinery that applies to many different fields such
as geometry, algebra, combinatorics and physics. We have investigated a large class of discrete
integrable systems that are part of cluster algebras, and found that an elusive positivity conjecture
becomes immediate once solutions are expressed as partition functions for statistical models of
non-intersecting paths or dimers on graphs.

Q-system solutions. Each initial condition (data), associated with a vertex of a cluster tree, determines a target
graph and its edge weights. The corresponding cluster variables are expressed as partition functions for nonintersecting paths on the corresponding target graph. Cluster algebra mutations modify the target graph and the
weights locally, resulting in different configurations. This is illustrated here with two particular vertices of the
Q-system cluster tree. For each vertex we have represented the target graph on the right (Γ0 , ΓM ), and a sample
non-intersecting path configuration on the left. Both partition functions evaluate to the same solution of the Qsystem, expressed in terms of two different sets of initial data. In both cases the paths are in bijection with the
domino tilings of plane domains, with possible defects (pink squares).
Cluster algebras are dynamical systems describing the evolution of data (cluster variables) defined
at the vertices of an infinite regular tree, via rational transformations (mutations) along the edges.
The axioms of cluster algebra guarantee that all variables in the tree are Laurent polynomials of initial
data at any given vertex, furthermore conjectured
in general to have only positive integer coefficients
(the cluster positivity conjecture). Many applications have been found since their discovery by Fomin
and Zelevinsky in 2000: in hyperbolic geometry, category theory, quiver representation theory, (quiver)
gauge theory, brane tilings, string theory, quantum
groups, discrete integrable systems, combinatorics,
etc.
We have shown that a class of discrete integrable
systems (Q- and T-systems), first introduced in the
study of integrable quantum spin chains, are parts
of cluster algebra structures [t08/255]; the Laurent polynomials are partition functions for weighted
combinatorial objects such as paths, tilings or plane
partitions [t08/256]. This is illustrated in the figure: the A-type Q-system solution is interpreted in
terms of non-intersecting paths, equivalently domino
tilings with possible defects. This identification allowed us to prove the cluster algebra positivity conjecture in a number of cases.
Cluster algebras have quantum counterparts
closely related to quantum groups, which describe
the evolution of q-commuting data. These allow to
define quantum versions of Q- and T-systems, still
displaying a form of integrability. We proved that
solutions of such systems can be used to compute
fusion products for quantum group representations
[t13/183] and elucidate the known fermionic formulae for fusion multiplicities.
We extended our analysis to a fully noncommutative setting, by using noncommutative weights and
quasi-determinants, objects arising in the solution of
noncommutative left linear systems. This allowed us
to prove a cluster positivity conjecture for the A1 type Q-system, due to Kontsevich [t09/236], and to
derive a noncommutative version of the discrete Hirota equation [t10/119]. These extensions should
lead to a formulation of statistical models with noncommutative Boltzmann weights, and to a form of
noncommutative integrability.

Extreme conformal field theories
Modern problems in condensed matter physics, statistical mechanics and the AdS/CFT duality
involve ‘extreme’ conformal field theories in 2D, which are typically nonunitary and noncompact. Important progress in their study has been obtained in the last few years using lattice
regularizations and quantum symmetries, combined with tools from representation theory and
integrability, as well as numerical simulations.
Despite the immense success of conformal field
theory (CFT), experimental applications have been
surprisingly few. Indeed, most of the results rely on
the assumption of unitarity, which is natural from a
quantum field theoretic point of view, but less so for
condensed matter physics or statistical mechanics.
In these cases – which include the description of the
transition between plateaux in the integer quantum
Hall effect (IQHE) and other (2+1)D topological insulators, or the properties of critical
approach to this problem based on lattice regularizations and intensive use of quantum symmetries, combined with tools from representation theory and integrability, as well as numerical simulations. This combination of the concrete and the abstract, dubbed associative algebraic approach
to LCFT has led to major progress.
Another crucial aspect for physical applications
is the noncompactness of the target space. This has
been also very hard to understand due to the technical difficulties of solving noncompact spin chains.
Recently however, we discovered a way to construct
compact spin chain regularizations of noncompact
CFTs. We were able to obtain a lattice model for the
SL(2, R)/U (1) black hole sigma model, and to ‘measure’ the density of states [t12/234], in full agreement with the string theory results. Extreme CFTs
are thus getting finally under control.

2D — nonunitarity is in fact the rule. While its
physical origin is clear — average over disorder, or
nonlocality of the geometrical constraints — its consequences are deeper and worse than initially realized. In most cases, nonunitarity indeed implies
indecomposability: the allpowerful, conformal symmetry now acts via representations which are not
fully reducible, giving rise in particular to logarithmic contributions to operator product expansions
and correlation functions, and thus to so-called Logarithmic Conformal Field Theories (LCFT).
Attempts at tackling LCFTs by general, constructive methods, have never quite succeeded, despite a lot of work. In the last five years (see
[t13/113] for a short review), we developed a new

of superprojective sigma models. The methods and
results are also highly relevant to the study of sigma
models with internal supersymmetry arising on the
AdS side of the AdS/CFT duality.

Integrability and the N = 4 gauge theory
The N = 4 supersymmetric gauge theory became a laboratory to study strongly interacting
quantum field theories, in particular their relations with string theory through the AdS/CFT
correspondence. There is very strong evidence that in the planar limit the theory is integrable.
Integrability is a powerful nonperturbative tool, which could lead to a full solution of the theory
for any coupling constant. The spectrum of anomalous dimensions is encoded by thermodynamic
Bethe Ansatz-like equations, and the information about correlation functions, Wilson loops and
gluon amplitudes is also obtained from integrability.
The supersymmetric gauge theory with maximal
supersymmetry in 3 + 1 dimensions, or N = 4 SYM,
is a nontrivial theory, which captures some of the
main features of quantum chromodynamics (QCD).
But unlike QCD the theory is conformally invariant
for all values of the coupling constant. According
to the Maldacena conjecture, this gauge theory is
equivalent to a string theory living in the curved
spacetime AdS5 × S 5 . In the planar limit, when the
number of colours tends to infinity, the theory is believed to be integrable.
Integrability allows to go beyond the perturbative regime, both on the string and the gauge theory side, and provides techniques to compute the
spectrum of anomalous dimensions (or string energies) for any coupling constant. The basic idea
is that the traces of products of fundamental fields
can be associated with the states of a quantum spin
chain. In the simplest case the spin chain is the
isotropic Heisenberg magnet. Methods used in integrable models, like the Bethe Ansatz, are being
developed to determine other basic objects of the
theory: correlation functions, gluon amplitudes and
Wilson loops. The goal is to obtain a complete description of the theory for any coupling constant,
and eventually use this knowledge for more realistic
theories like QCD.

A de Sitter landscape?
Constructing de Sitter vacua remains one of the major open problems in String Theory. The
most generic proposal starts from an anti-de Sitter solution, and argues that one can transform
it into a long-lived metastable de Sitter solution by placing appropriate branes and fluxes. This
mechanism can in principle be used for any combination of fluxes, giving rise to a huge landscape
of string theory de Sitter vacua. The string theory group at IPhT has shown that taking into
account the backreaction of the branes always makes the solution singular, which, in the absence
of a string theory resolution, seems to invalidate the whole mechanism. This (unexpected) result
suggests that string theory does not admit a landscape of de Sitter vacua.

Cosmology and particle physics

Cosmology and particle physics
The activities in cosmology and particle physics at IPhT are shared between three
subgroups with overlapping interests. The first one comprises research in strong interaction physics, i.e. QCD in its perturbative and non-perturbative regimes, and more formal
aspects of gauge theories such as thermal properties or dualities involving extended supersymmetries. Cosmology is also represented with studies on both the early and the late time
Universe, i.e. from inflationary models and their features to the non-linear properties of
large scale structure. Dark energy, large scale magnetic fields and gravitational waves are
also of particular interest. Finally physics beyond the standard models covers both particle
physics aspects, such as the electroweak symmetry breaking and beyond, flavour physics
and supersymmetry breaking, as well as topics of cosmological origin such as leptogenesis,
dark matter and its detection, or modified gravity versus dark energy models.
QCD and Gauge Theories
The study of strong interactions is a very active and diverse activity at the IPhT. Our
activities cover a broad spectrum of research topics, ranging from the study of amplitudes
in perturbative QCD, through jet algorithms applicable both to particle-physics and heavyion collisions, to finite-temperature gauge theory, heavy-ion collisions, and the Color Glass
Condensate.
The study of amplitudes in gauge theories has developed into a rich and exciting subfield
of particle physics, in which our group plays a visible role. We have brought important
contributions to the development of new, so-called on-shell, techniques for computing amplitudes. These avoid the need for Feynman diagrams and allow for practical computations
at far higher multiplicity or loop order than the traditional techniques. The study of amplitudes in the N = 4 supersymmetric gauge theory forms an integral part of this line of
research. This theory has served as a laboratory for developing techniques and understanding new structures and symmetries, such as dual superconformal invariance. Our group’s
activity ranges from formal studies to practical applications to LHC physics. We have
worked to refine and extend this new class of techniques to massive one-loop amplitudes
and to higher loop orders. We have developed software libraries that apply these techniques
to the computation of one-loop amplitudes of interest for Standard-Model studies at the
LHC. We have participated in a theory collaboration (BlackHat) that has used such a
library to pursue next-to-leading order calculations with many jets for LHC studies.
Another related area of study is the development of new jet algorithms. These are
important tools in the experimental study of QCD at high energy colliders such as the LHC
in order to make the contact between perturbatively calculable cross-sections, in terms of
quarks and gluons, and the actual measurements that see only hadrons. Any suitable
jet algorithm must be infrared and collinear safe. In addition, the very large particle
multiplicity in final states at the LHC (both in particle-physics and heavy-ion collisions)
makes it crucial that these algorithms be computationally efficient. We have played a
central role in developing new jet algorithms, such as the kt and anti-kt algorithms, that
are now used by the major experimental collaborations at the LHC.
An important domain of research at the IPhT is the study of the Color Glass Condensate,
an effective theory for the study of hadronic and nuclear wave functions in the high energy
regime, where gluon saturation effects become important. These effects are crucial for
instance for a first principles study of particle production in nucleus-nucleus and protonnucleus collisions at high energy. Our group has pioneering works in this domain, with
several renowned contributions. Our recent activity covers both formal aspects that aim
38
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
at developing the formalism and justifying its applicability to high energy collisions (e.g.
via factorization theorems that relate various types of reactions, and analytic solutions
for the JIMWLK equation which governs the high-energy evolution of the cross-sections),
and phenomenological studies whose goal is to confront the predictions of the Color Glass
Condensate effective theory to experimental results at HERA, RHIC or the LHC.
In heavy ion collisions at high energy, the experimental results for bulk observables
suggest that the quark-gluon matter produced in these collisions can be described as an almost frictionless fluids in expansion and can be modelled using relativistic hydrodynamics.
An important observation is that the final anisotropy of the momentum of the observed
particles can be related via the hydrodynamical evolution to the initial shape anisotropies
of the system. Our group has played a major role in developing practical methods for measuring the parameters that quantify these anisotropies in the data. Another major result
has been the realization that event-by-event shape fluctuations are an essential ingredient
in interpreting these results. Our team has also worked on some more formal aspects of
relativistic hydrodynamics, by obtaining exact solutions in some special cases.
The last four years have seen the appearance of new domains of application of the
AdS/CFT correspondence (and more generally gauge-gravity dualities). While these ideas
were so far employed in order to study formal properties of gauge theory amplitudes, these
techniques have now made an incursion into the territory of the phenomenology of quarkgluon matter at high temperature, such as the matter produced in heavy ion collisions.
These studies deal with the conformal N=4 SUSY rather than QCD itself, but it is believed
that some of their properties at strong coupling are quite close to those of QCD, notably
at finite temperature. Thanks to such techniques, we have studied at strong coupling
important questions such as the rapid approach towards thermal equilibrium, the validity
of the parton picture, the energy loss of a heavy quark in a plasma, the properties of meson
bound states in hot matter, and the viscosity of the quark-gluon plasma.
Cosmology
Cosmology is a very active research topic at the IPhT with works in this field ranging from
the early Universe (e.g., inflationary scenarios) to the large-scale structures observed in the
present Universe.
A traditional area of expertise in Saclay is the study of the formation of large-scale
structures from which one can infer complementary constraints on the background cosmology and primordial fluctuations. This requires precise predictions, up to 1% on weakly
nonlinear scales, to reach the accuracy of future surveys (e.g. Euclid) and has led to a
recent surge of activity in perturbation theory and the development of new resummation
schemes providing more accurate predictions. These approaches can be applied to nonGaussian initial conditions and combined to phenomenological models to cover the highly
nonlinear regime of some modified gravity models.
Another major topic of modern cosmology is the generation of primordial fluctuations
during inflation. Alternative models to single-field inflation can give rise to significant nonGaussianities. Nonlinear contributions to higher-order correlations in single-field models
have been uncovered and non-Gaussianities generated in multi-field models, including both
gravity and non-gravity induced couplings, have been unraveled. We have also studied in
detail the signature of this primordial signal on the low-redshift large-scale structures,
using both analytical tools and numerical simulations, thus estimating the constraints on
scale-dependent non-Gaussianities.
A particularly important probe of the early Universe would be the detection of a stochastic background of gravitational waves (GW) of primordial origin. We have analysed the

39
GW signal generated by a first order phase transition, showing that the proposed space interferometer eLISA could detect electroweak symmetry breaking effects in the energy range
0.1-100 TeV, thus probing energy scales beyond the reach of current particle accelerators.
We have also worked on the origin of primordial magnetic fields and found that the seeds
for the ubiquitous magnetic fields detected on cosmological scales could be formed in the
early Universe. We have also built a detailed model for the evolution of magnetic fields in
the primordial plasma, obtained new constraints on possible generation mechanisms and
evaluated its impact on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB).
Another rich subject of current cosmology is the study of the CMB anisotropies. We have
computed the main contributions at second order to the CMB fluctuations, as well as the
full second-order bispectrum, by a consistent implementation of the Boltzmann equation.
We have written a CMB code up to second order which will be valuable to the community.
We have also computed the cosmic shear to second order, including all relativistic effects
and without relying on small-angle approximations. We have also estimated the sensitivity
of weak lensing observables on primordial non-Gaussianities.
Finally, in an attempt to understand dark energy, we have studied quintessence models
with a vanishing sound speed for which dark energy clusters and affects the formation of
large-scale structures.
Beyond the standard model
The research activities in particle physics beyond the Standard Model take place in a
particularly rich experimental context: the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is currently exploring the terascale and has already shed some light on the electroweak symmetry
breaking sector; neutrino and flavour physics experiments are providing us with complementary information about the flavour structure of the physics relevant at high energies; a
variety of astroparticle physics experiments are constraining the properties of dark matter
and may help us, in conjunction with the LHC, to identify its nature; and finally, cosmological observations are delivering more and more accurate information about dark energy
or a modification of gravity.
An important part of our research activities concerns the dynamics of the electroweak
symmetry breaking and its signatures at the LHC. For generic models in which the Higgs
boson arises as a pseudo-Goldstone boson, the top quark has fermionic partners, whose
production at the LHC has been studied in detail. All the composite models for two Higgs
bosons have been studied and we have found the most promising as well as the simplest one.
Effective field theories have been used to interpret the anomalously large forward-backward
asymmetry in tt̄ production measured at the Tevatron, and to assess the sensivity of top
quark collider observables to new physics. Simulations of specific observables like four-top
production were also performed. Deviations from the standard Higgs mechanism such as
double Higgs production or spin-1 resonances of the electroweak gauge bosons have also
been studied. The dynamics of the electroweak phase transition are very sensitive to the
details of the electroweak symmetry breaking process. We have studied electroweak bubble
nucleation when the Higgs boson is a composite bound state from a strongly interacting
sector, and showed that the associated signal in gravity waves can be large. We have
also studied the hydrodynamics of bubble growth in a first-order phase transition, which
is relevant both for electroweak baryogenesis and for the size of the gravity wave signal
resulting from bubble collisions.
Flavour and neutrino physics is another active line of research. This includes attempts
to understand the observed pattern of fermion masses and mixing angles; the study of
new physics contributions to flavour-changing processes; and phenomenological analyses
40
Activity Report CEA/DSM/IPhT 2008 — 2013
of neutrino oscillations. Supersymmetry breaking and its mediation to the observable
sector have been investigated in the framework of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking.
Issues like the metastability of the supersymmetry breaking vacuum and the possibility of
simultaneous gauge and supersymmetry breakdown in Grand Unified theories were studied.
A much strengthened line of research in the last few years has been at the intersection
between particle physics and astrophysics and cosmology, in particular leptogenesis, dark
matter and dark energy. Baryogenesis via leptogenesis has been studied in the framework
of Grand Unified theories, focusing on the possibility of generating the observed matterantimatter asymmetry in SO(10) models and on the connection between leptogenesis and
measurable neutrino parameters. Our research activity on Dark Matter has both pursued
a model-building direction (e.g. with the construction and the exploration of the Minimal
DM model) and a model-independent analysis of recent puzzling cosmic ray observations.
In the latter, the results we obtained have greatly helped in shaping the understanding of
the properties that dark matter must have to be able to explain the observations, and their
associated constraints. Dark energy and screened modified gravity have been studied using
a formalism which unifies all models of the chameleon, dilaton or symmetron types. This
has led to N-Body simulations of these screened modified gravity models which have also
been compared to semi-analytic predictions. Local effects of modified gravity have also
been studied with experiments currently looking for these deviations from the standard
model (Casimir effect and bouncing neutrons).

Jet clustering at the LHC
Jets are fundamental objects in collider physics and in particular at the LHC. In a series of
recent works, we have laid the framework that is currently used by all the LHC experiments
to reconstruct jets: the anti-kt algorithm used to define jets, the FastJetpackage providing a
standard interface to jet clustering and the area-median subtraction method that corrects for
soft background (pileup) contamination.
A jet can be seen as a proxy for a parton, quark
or gluon, produced in the final state of a high-energy
collision. Since, in QCD, partons have a large probability to emit further partons at small angles, a hard
parton produced in the final state of a collision will
develop into a collimated shower of partons; the jet
is meant to capture that shower, giving an access to
the original hard parton.
In practice, jets are obtained by applying a jet
definition, which takes as an input the final-state
particles, and clusters them into jets. A jet definition contains both the recipe for clustering and
adjustable parameters. A typical parameter is the
angular opening of jets, often denoted by R, which
controls the maximal angle for which two particles
are considered collinear and part of the same jet.
Over the last 30 years of collider phenomenology, a dozen different jet definitions have been used.
In 2007-08, we have shown that the jet definitions
commonly used at the Tevatron, as well as the ones
proposed for the LHC, suffer from an infrared-andcollinear unsafety, i.e. lead to infinite cross-sections
when computed at a large enough order of the perturbation theory. The breakthrough was to provide
new algorithms, with behaviours similar to the algorithms they were going to replace, but free of
these unwanted divergences. This was done under
the form of the SISCone and anti-kt algorithms
[?, t08/319]. This is a major achievement since the
anti-kt algorithm has been adopted as a default by
all the LHC experiments1 . The main property of
the anti-kt algorithm is that the hard jets are circular and resilient to soft radiation.
In practice, except for situations with very few
particles, one needs to rely on numerical implementations of the jet definition. The FastJet package
[t11/294] has been initially designed to provide fast
implementations of recombination clustering algorithms (including anti-kt ) and has now grown into
the standard interface for jet manipulation. This
includes a plugin system for commonly used jet definitions, support for jet areas and background subtraction (see below), tools for advanced jet manipulation as well as an interface for developing thirdparty tools. FastJetbeing used in many places (e.g.
high-level triggers in ATLAS and CMS), a great effort is put towards keeping improving FastJet. Ver-
sion 3.0.3 was released in June 2012, and we recently
opened a “contrib space” providing a common location for third-party extensions of FastJet.
Example of anti-kt jets and their areas.
The last part of this framework is related to
pileup: with the LHC operating at high luminosity, many pp collisions happen during a single bunch
crossing — ≈30 on average at the end of Run I
— resulting in an important soft hadronic activity,
mostly uniform in the detector. This has two drastic
consequences on jet reconstruction: a shift in energy
due to the overall pileup activity, and a degradation
of the energy resolution due to nonuniformities in
the activity in a given event and to the overall pileup
activity fluctuations between different events. The
LHC subtracts the pileup contamination to jets using a method based on jet areas [t08/320] and a
median approach to provide an event-by-event estimation of the pileup activity. The main advantage of this method is that it corrects for the overall
shift in energy, but also gets rid of the fluctuations
between events. This method has been extensively
studied, and shown suited for both pileup subtraction in p-p collisions [t12/305] and Underlying Event
subtraction in P b-P b collisions [t10/298]. It has also
been extended in many important directions, including positional dependence [t12/305, t10/298], application to the fragmentation function [t13/118] (in
heavy-ion collisions) and jet shapes [t12/304] extensively used in quark-gluon discrimination or boosted
jet tagging.
In summary, our series of works sets the standard
for jet clustering, solving longstanding issues in the
field and allowing efficient jet clustering at the LHC.

Initial state factorization in heavy ion collisions
High energy heavy ion collisions present new challenges to Quantum Chromodynamics, because
they involve a large number of quarks and gluons in their initial state. Some factorization results,

So far, factorization results were limited to situations in which the local parton density is small,
so that in a given collision at most one parton from
each projectile interacts (Fig. 1, left). At high collision energy, this is not true anymore, because the
gluon density increases rapidly with the energy. Indeed, the emission probability of a new gluon by an
already existing gluon increases as the logarithm of
energy, and is eventually of order one. These successive gluon emissions lead to large occupation numbers for the gluons in the colliding projectiles. This
situation is reached earlier in heavy ion collisions,
because the gluons from all the nucleons sitting at

Using causality, (see Fig. 2), one can prove that
such correlations must have preexisted in the projectiles before the collision, or have been created very
shortly after the collision. Guided by this general
argument, and using our earlier results on the factorization of the initial multi-parton distributions,
we have developed a semi-quantitative explanation
of these correlations, that reproduces the main features of the data.

Wave turbulence and di-jet asymmetry at the LHC
The study of the propagation of an energetic jet through a dense QCD medium reveals an
interesting phenomenon of weak turbulence, which is new in the context of QCD, and may
provide a natural explanation for a remarkable set of data obtained in heavy ion collisions at the
LHC.
A major objective of the experimental program
at the LHC is the study of the high-temperature,
deconfined, phase of QCD, known as Quark-Gluon
Plasma (QGP). Believed to have filled the Early
Universe just after the Big-Bang, this matter is reproduced at the LHC in the intermediate stages of
heavy ion collisions. When two P b nuclei, with
atomic number A = 208, are smashed against each
other with a center-of-mass energy of 5 TeV, the
respective wavefunctions (built with 3A ≈ 600 valence quarks and a few thousands of gluons generated via Bremsstrahlung) lose quantum coherence and liberate the partons in the final state.
This leads to a dense fireball of quarks and gluons, with a temperature T ∼ 1 GeV, which lives
for about 10 fm/c. Later on, this plasma cools
down and hadronizes, thus producing the myriad of
particles (more than 20,000) observed in the detectors. A main challenge is to identify and measure
the imprints of the ephemeral QGP phase on the
multi-particle distribution in the final state. One
of the observables used in that sense, the energy
correlations between pairs of jets, led to an interesting discovery, which motivated our studies in
Refs. [t13/088, t12/157, t13/038].
Specifically, the typical di-jet events observed in
P b-P b collisions are highly asymmetric, with one of
the two jets carrying much more energy than the
other. This asymmetry is commonly attributed to
the interactions between one of the jets and the fireball that it traverses, while the other jet leaves the
system unaffected. What is surprising though, is
the magnitude of this effect: a jet can lose as much
as 30 GeV, i.e. much more than the typical energy
scale, T ∼ 1 GeV, of the medium. Moreover, the
energy lost in this way is recovered as an excess in
the number of soft (E ≤ 1 GeV) quanta propagating
at large angles with respect to the jet axis.
This remarkable phenomenon led us to reconsider the problem of the evolution of a jet propagating through a dense QCD medium. The emission of
a single gluon which is triggered by the interactions
between an energetic parton and the surrounding
medium has been first studied in the mid nineties
by Baier, Dokshitzer, Mueller, Peigné, Schiff, and
independently by Zakharov. These early results predicted a large probability for the emission of soft
gluons at large angles. We have exploited and generalized these results in order to provide a complete
picture of multiple gluon emissions and thus globally
follow the evolution of the in-medium parton cas-
cade (see the figure). After a first study [t13/088] of
a simplified version of the ‘parton cascade’ made of
one quark-antiquark pair (a ‘colour antenna’), we
have obtained the first complete calculation of a
gluon branching (g → gg) in the presence of medium
effects [t12/157]. Our work shows that the ‘colour
coherence’ between the emitters is rapidly washed
out by the interactions with the medium and, as a
consequence, the interference effects can be ignored
in a leading order calculation: the in–medium cascade can be assimilated to a classical branching process (obtained by iterating independent emissions)
and be treated via a Monte-Carlo calculation. This
opens the way towards systematic phenomenological
studies.

A medium-induced jet in a typical event, as emerging
from our analysis.
A further step has been accomplished in [t13/038],
where we studied the energy distribution within the
in-medium gluon cascade. We found that, in successive branchings, the energy gets transmitted from
one parton generation to the next one at a rate which
is independent of the generation: the energy flows
through the cascade without accumulating at any
intermediate scale; it rather accumulates at the lowenergy end of the cascade, and is dumped into the
medium. This provides an efficient mechanism for
energy loss via soft gluon radiation at large angles,
which could naturally explain the di-jet asymmetry
observed at the LHC.
An energy flow with rate independent of the energy is a distinguished signature of weak wave turbulence. This phenomenon requires the wave interactions to be quasi-local in energy, an unusual features in the context of QCD. It occurs in the present
context because the medium-induced gluon branchings are quasi-democratic : the offspring gluons share
commensurable fractions of the energy of their parent gluon. We are currently investigating further
consequences of this physical picture for the phenomenology at the LHC.

Cosmological Perturbation Theory
Perturbation theory is a powerful tool that has been used in a variety of cosmological contexts.
With the advent of precision observations, it can be used to explore subdominant effects at linear
order and beyond, at various stages of the thermal history of the universe. This applies to the
large scale structure of the local Universe, the mapping of which is done with increasing accuracy,
or to the physics of recombination, magnificently probed by the Planck satellite mission.
The Planck satellite has recently measured the
anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background
(CMB) with an unprecedented precision, and put
tight constraints on primordial non-Gaussianities,
potentially carrying important information on the at
early times. For the sensitivity attained by Planck,
second-order effects connecting the initial conditions
to the observed CMB are potentially detactable,
and can contaminate the primordial signal. Thus,
the precision of the constraints on primordial nonGaussianity heavily relies on our ability to control
these nonlinear effects. Moreover, the detection of
these nonprimordial nonlinear features would represent per se a strong validation of minimal inflation,
more generally of the standard cosmological model.
At IPhT we have pioneered the analytical and
numerical study of these second-order effects, which
have been used as a reference by the Planck collaboration to interpret their constraints. In particular we
have expanded the Boltzmann equation to secondorder in the relativistic cosmological perturbations
[t08/162, t10/032] and the effects on the anisotropies
[t09/244, t09/353, t10/195]. More recently, we have
developed CosmoLib2nd , the first complete numerical Boltzmann code which computes the evolution
of second-order perturbations and the CMB 3-point
function from second-order sources, from recombination until today [t12/155].

Even in the context of standard gravity, developing methods that can be used to compute the growth
rate and resulting statistical properties of the local
cosmological density fields with the required accuracy is a challenging theoretical task. In a series of
papers we have developed new approaches, where we
reformulate the perturbation series involved in the
computation of the density power spectrum or the
bispectrum. These approaches are based on the introduction of the multi-point propagators that are
seen as the new building blocks of the perturbation
theory expansions [t08/161]. A key result is that
these objects enjoy resummation properties in the
high momentum limit. Later we showed that these
properties are intimately related with the infrared
behavior of the theory, by introducing the eikonal
approximation [t11/222, t12/083], in analogy with
the scheme in QED. This is a powerful framework to
perform such resummations, which can be employed
in a variety of cases, from non-Gaussian initial conditions [t10/090], to quantities defined in Lagrangian
rather than Eulerian space [t08/161].
In [t11/223] we further showed how to incorporate in a single expression both the high momentum behavior of the propagators, driven by
their resummed properties, and their low momentum behavior, determined by perturbative expansions. This formalism opened the way to consistent perturbation theory calculations, to any order.
It was exploited when developing publicly released
codes that provide fast computations of the matter
density field at 2-loop order[t12/081, t12/082].

Dark Matter and the matter-antimatter
asymmetry of the Universe
What is the matter in the Universe made of? Where did it originate from? The latest cosmological
observations yield a precise answer to the first question: 15.9% of the matter in the Universe
consists of known particles (essentially protons, neutrons and electrons), while the remaining
84.1% is composed of an unknown species called Dark Matter. Its nature is one of the unexplained
mysteries of particle physics and cosmology, despite decades of investigations. The other major
mystery is the origin of ordinary matter: there is no understanding of why the Universe possesses
an asymmetry between particles and antiparticles and thus why matter survived a complete
primordial self-destruction at all.
Understanding the nature of Dark Matter (DM)
requires witnessing an explicit manifestation of it,
beside the indirect (gravitational) effects it has on
the shape of galaxies and larger structures. One
possibility is to detect, in the fluxes of cosmic rays,
an anomalous component which could originate from
DM annihilations and therefore betray its existence.
Indeed, from 2008 onwards, a number of very well
performing satellite and ground based experiments
(Pamela, Fermi, Hess and now Ams-02 on the
Iss) have reported intriguing excesses.
We have published a string of works which have
allowed to: 1) identify the properties that DM
must have to explain the data [t08/139]; 2) cross
check related constraints (such as from gamma rays
[t08/184, t09/030, t09/187, t12/034]; 3) predict associated signals in other channels [t10/025] (such as
in neutrino fluxes). These works have been influential in the field (they collected about 1000 citations
since early 2009). Together with other efforts, they
opened whole new directions in DM model building:
the focus in the community has steered drastically
from conventional DM candidates such as the supersymmetric neutralino to exotic, multi-TeV, leptophilic new particles.
Dark Matter annihilations in the Milky Way halo produce fluxes of cosmic rays that, collected on Earth after
a complex propagation history, carry important information. Precisely computing these fluxes, and comparing
the predictions with data, might shed light on the nature
of Dark Matter.
Another mystery is the origin of the matterantimatter asymmetry of the Universe. One of the
possibilities for generating it dynamically is leptogenesis, a mechanism involving the heavy fields that
are needed to generate the small neutrino masses
via the seesaw mechanism. Whether leptogenesis
can indeed explain the observed cosmological baryon
asymmetry in Grand Unified Theories based on the
SO(10) gauge group, in which the seesaw mechanism is automatically present, is a crucial question.
We showed that this is indeed the case, taking into
account effects that were neglected in previous studies, in particular the contribution of the flavourdependent decays of the second right-handed neutrino [t08/069]. Another long-standing question is
the possibility of testing leptogenesis experimentally.
While there is in general no correlation between the
generated baryon asymmetry and low-energy observables, we identified and analysed a predictive
scenario in which the matter-antimatter asymmetry
depends on parameters that can be measured in neutrino physics experiments [t08/070]. This scenario,

Statistical and condensed matter physics
Our activities in statistical and condensed matter physics can be divided into three
main themes: statistical physics, condensed matter physics, and applications to biophysics,
networks and complex systems.
Out-of-equilibrium systems have been our main research theme in classical statistical mechanics. The conceptual framework of the theory of equilibrium systems is wellestablished, owing to the notions of statistical ensembles and thermodynamic potentials.
This formalism has, however, received no equivalent so far in the realm of non-equilibrium
systems. As a result, even simple questions remain unanswered in general, such as the
characterization of driven stationary states far from equilibrium and far from the linear response regimes, or the study of the glass transition and of its slow dynamics. In recent years
several general results, referred to as fluctuation theorems, have shed some light on the first
of these issues, namely the nature of non-equilibrium stationary states. A complementary
direction of research consists in studying exactly solvable models of out-of-equilibrium phenomena, such as the asymmetric exclusion process in one dimension, where exact results
have been obtained, concerning especially the large deviation functions associated with various observables. Following another line of thought, a series of works has been devoted to
the effects of some novel types of dynamics on simple models, such as the one-dimensional
Ising chain or the spherical model. This class of dynamics includes asymmetric interactions
between spins as well as other kinds of biases which make the dynamics irreversible. A
novel type of non-equilibrium dynamical transition has been put forward, which demarcates two qualitatively different regimes of violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem.
Various other features of stochastic processes and non-equilibrium phenomena have been
studied, including the statistics of excursions of several stochastic processes, the maximal
entropy random walk on an arbitrary graph, and new applications of Markov processes to
the sampling of complex energy landscapes in Monte-Carlo methods.
In glasses, spin glasses, granular systems and some other disordered systems, the relaxation time towards equilibrium becomes so large below some critical temperature that
the system never reaches equilibrium and exhibits genuinely non-equilibrium phenomena,
referred to as aging. In the field of glasses, a qualitative thermodynamic difference between
the high-temperature and deeply supercooled equilibrium glass-forming liquid regimes has
been explicitly shown, leading to a renewed discussion of the random first-order transition
theory and to new ways of studying the glass transition. Several new results have been
obtained in the area of spin glasses, concerning e.g. the nature of the spin-glass phase in
low dimensions, the distribution of relaxation time in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model,
large correlations in individual mean-field samples, and the existence of a static spin-glass
phase on soft scalar spin version of the random field Ising model. The non-equilibrium
dynamics of magnetic systems in the presence of quenched disorder have also been studied,
especially using renormalization techniques. Finally, various aspects of the Anderson localization problem have been revisited, including the relationship with directed polymers,
traveling waves and many-body localization.
In many-body quantum systems strong interactions give rise to remarkable and unexpected phenomena that deeply challenge our understanding of condensed matter physics.
The fractional quantum Hall effect and the high-temperature superconductivity are the two
most famous examples, but there are many others, including metal-insulator transitions,
the breakdown of the Fermi-liquid behavior in cuprates and in heavy fermions compounds,
and exotic orders (charge, spin, orbital) in transition metal oxides. Our research activity in
that area spans a very broad range of topics, from traditional ones, such as strongly corre-

lated electrons in bulk materials, to subjects emerged recently such as the effect of strong
interactions in mesoscopic physics, ultra-cold atoms, out-of-equilibrium quantum systems
and graphene. An intense research effort is also devoted to improving and developing
theoretical methods able to cope with the new challenges of condensed matter physics.
Our main contributions concern conformal field theory, renormalization group methods
and new numerical techniques. For example, an efficient algorithm for solving the multiple
quantum impurity models of (cluster) dynamical mean-field methods was developed and
is now routinely used in several groups world-wide.
High-temperature superconductivity, and in particular the nature of the pseudo-gap
state, are among the most studied and challenging problems of condensed matter physics.
Several theoretical ideas have been put forward to explain them, in particular the resonating valence bond (RVB) phase and the proximity to a quantum critical point (QCP). We
have actively investigated both of them. Concerning the former, a new picture of a selective
Mott transition in momentum space was proposed, based on approximate solutions of microscopic models using cluster dynamical mean-field methods. It was found, in agreement
with experiments, that the nodal regions remain metallic while the anti-nodal ones become
insulating, suggesting the existence of a dynamical RVB phase, and that superconductivity
and pseudo-gap state compete with one another. Moreover, several spin and dimer models,
related to RVB physics and also relevant for frustrated magnets, have been studied. It was
shown that they can exhibit non-standard states, like spin liquids and dimer phases. Concerning the latter, a new theory of the two-dimensional anti-ferromagnetic (AF) quantum
critical point has been developed in analogy with the field-theoretical analysis of Anderson
localization. It was shown that in the proximity of the AF-QCP a novel state of matter
emerges, which is characterized by quadrupolar density wave order and d-wave superconductivity. Its relevance for the pseudo-gap state was put forward and experimental checks
are currently performed.
Among many new subjects which emerged recently in condensed matter physics, we
have been particularly active in the following ones: mesoscopic and nanoscopic systems,
for which quantum impurity models, out-of-equilibrium transport and various aspects of
nanotubes have been studied; graphene physics, for which many important questions concerning the effects of disorder, of the substrate and of interactions have been addressed;
cold atomic systems, which allow one to study fundamental issues of strongly correlated
systems by creating artificial solids embedded in optical lattices; out-of-equilibrium dynamics of quantum open and closed systems, for which new methods, such as integrability for
out-of-equilibrium steady states, new phenomena, such as out-of-equilibrium phase transitions, and new theoretical aspects, such as quantum fluctuation theorems, have been
investigated. In particular, several works have been devoted to the study of entanglement
in one- and two-dimensional systems, which is relevant for the dynamics of isolated quantum many-body systems and for the development of numerical algorithms for strongly
interacting quantum systems.
Our activities in the area of the applications of statistical physics has vastly enlarged
their scope beyond biopolymers and electrostatics in biological systems, especially to include combinatorial optimization and complex networks. We have started to deal with
questions of direct interest to biological systems. Biopolymers such as DNA, RNA and
proteins have a chemical sequence which can be modeled, to a first approximation, as a
quenched random sequence. In addition to the melting transition, random RNA undergoes
a freezing transition, of the same type as those studied in disordered systems. On the
other hand, molecular motors, the dynamics of actin filaments, and the kinetics of protein
folding all involve the use of methods and concepts of non-equilibrium statistical physics.

Four web servers have been set up in recent years. The first one, entitled Mistral, allows
multiple structure alignment of protein structures. By aligning protein structures, one can
look for structurally conserved motifs in proteins, and this in turn can be used to determine
the function of proteins or their evolution. A second server, TT2NE, predicts secondary
structures of RNA with pseudoknots, from their chemical sequence. This is an important
information, since loops and pseudoknots are known to embed the binding sites of RNA.
The third one, McGenus, allows one to predict RNA structures with pseudoknots for longer
sequences, by means of a Monte-Carlo algorithm. Finally, the AquaSAXS server, hosted by
Institut Pasteur in Paris, is devoted to the reconstruction of protein surfaces from SAXS
data.
The tools and methods elaborated in statistical physics also have numerous applications
to other fields of the natural and social sciences. Pluridisciplinary applications might even
be viewed as one of the most promising facets of the whole discipline. In recent years our
activity has strongly expanded in two directions. The first one is concerned with hard
problems of combinatorial optimization. Within this framework, let us mention a new concept in signal acquisition referred to as compressed sensing. We wave proposed a scheme
based on a message-passing algorithm and on the theory of nucleation, for which compressed sensing is tractable for as few measurements as the size of the compressed signal.
The second direction is the study of complex networks, their structure, their evolution,
and their spatial properties. Networks are fundamental in theoretical epidemiology, where
transportation and mobility networks are the key ingredient in the spread of infectious
diseases. The problem is then to understand the coupling between the movement of individuals and the spread of the disease, both processes having their own spatial and temporal
scales. In geography and urbanism, networks are also a key ingredient in understanding
the structure and the evolution of cities.

Large deviations of the current in the ASEP
Systems out of equilibrium are often characterized by the transport of a physical quantity at the
macroscopic scale, such as a current of particles through a wire. The statistical properties of
this current are encoded in a Large Deviation Function. This function has been calculated for
the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process, a paradigmatic system for nonequilibrium transport,
amenable to exact analytical solutions.
A system containing carriers of energy, mass, or
electrical charge, and subject to a driving field in
its bulk, or to a difference of potential between its
boundaries, will usually evolve to a nonequilibrium
steady state with a nonvanishing macroscopic current of heat, particles or charges. This current violates time reversal invariance and detailed balance:
the principles of equilibrium statistical mechanics
cannot be applied. Hence, for a system which is
bulk-driven, boundary-driven, or both, there exists
no fundamental principle that would predict the
value of the current and its fluctuations.
During the last two decades, substantial progress
has been made towards a statistical theory of
nonequilibrium systems; large deviation functions, which encode atypical excursions of a physical
observable, appear as the best candidates to generalize the traditional thermodynamic potentials.
The study of large deviations in a nonequilibrium
system therefore represents a theoretical, numerical
and experimental task of fundamental importance.
At IPhT we have tackled this question for the
case of the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process
(ASEP), one of the very few models in nonequilibrium physics that can be studied analytically.

Open ASEP coupled to two reservoirs. The asymmetry
factor is q < 1. Boundary rates are arbitrary.
The ASEP is a 1D lattice-gas model in which
particles perform biased random walks and interact
through an exclusion constraint that mimics a hardcore repulsion: two particles cannot occupy the same
site at a given time. This minimal system appears as
a building block in a great variety of phenomena that
involve low-dimensional transport with constraints
(such as the motion of ribosomes along mRNA, surface growth, traffic flow, or combinatorics of Young
diagrams).
In the long time limit, the ASEP reaches a steady
state with a fluctuating macroscopic current. The
structure of the steady state, the average value of
the current and the corresponding phase diagram are
known, thanks to a seminal article of B. Derrida et
al. (1993). Nevertheless, the statistical properties of
the current had remained an outstanding challenge
for the last twenty years.
This major unsolved problem has stimulated
many works during the last 20 years; we finally obtained a complete solution recently.
Our computation proceeded in two steps. First,
we focussed on the periodic case with bulk drive,
and used the Bethe Ansatz to extract the exact expressions of all the cumulants of the current for a
system of arbitrary size. We derived the large deviation function in the continuous, hydrodynamic, limit
and found a breaking of analyticity of this function
[?, t08/236]. This corresponds to a phase transition
in the model, emphasizing again the fact that large
deviations play the role of nonequilibrium potentials.
This transition was expected from the macroscopic
fluctuation theory (MFT) of Jona-Lasinio et al.
In a second step we solved the case of the open
ASEP in contact with two reservoirs (see the figure) [t11/096, t12/118]. Here, because of the open
boundaries, the Bethe Ansatz cannot be applied
for generic values of the parameters. Instead we
used a technique we had developed in a series of
works on exclusion processes with multiple species
[t08/133, t08/213, t09/157, t11/238]. The key idea
was to encode the combinatorial properties of these
models by tensor products of quadratic algebras.
Applying this method to the open ASEP, we calculated the full current statistics in all the phases
of the model. Our results are exact and valid for
arbitrary system sizes and parameter values. In the
limit of large sizes, the asymptotic behavior of the
large deviation function is derived in all regions of
the phase diagram, and we show that this function is
nonanalytic along transition lines. We also find that
the cumulants of degree higher than 2 do not vanish: this is a signature of a non-Gaussian statistics
of the current, another footprint of nonequilibrium.
Our results coincide with the predictions of MFT in
the diffusive limit q → 1. For general values of the
asymmetry parameter q, no such macroscopic formalism is available yet, but our formulae can be used
as benchmarks for algorithms such as the Density
Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) method.

Spin models with asymmetric irreversible dynamics
A new dynamical transition is exhibited by simple spin models with asymmetric irreversible
dynamics. In the stationary state, the response to an external perturbation and the spontaneous
fluctuations are in a constant ratio, which depends continuously on the strength of the asymmetry,
and vanishes beyond a critical value.

Left: Fluctuation-dissipation ratio vs velocity. Right: Critical velocity as a function of temperature. (Ising chain.)
The best introduction to the series of works presented below is the following quotation of Glauber
in his celebrated 1963 article: "The principles
of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics remain in
largest measure unformulated. While this lack persists, it may be useful to have in hand whatever
precise statements can be made about the timedependent hehavior of statistical systems, however
simple they may be. We have attempted, therefore,
to devise a form of the Ising model whose behavior can be followed exactly, in statistical terms, as a
function of time. While certain of the assumptions
underlying the model are to a degree arbitrary, it is
surely one of the simplest ones involving N coupled
particles for which exact time-dependent solutions
can be found".
The model considered by Glauber, a 1D chain
of Ising spins relaxing towards equilibrium, was reversible. The current trend of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics is oriented towards the investigation
of models with irreversible dynamics. The sentences
quoted above can be transposed without change to
the cases presented in this highlight.
What is the effect of imposing a spatial asymmetry in the rules of the dynamics of a spin chain,
such that the process becomes irreversible? At long
times, and at a given finite temperature, the system reaches a stationary state. The model is still
solvable; in particular its stationary measure is unchanged: the weight of any configuration is given by
the same Boltzmann-Gibbs factor as in the reversible
case. Furthermore, irreversibility implies the violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT),
however the degree of violation depends continu-
ously on the strength of the asymmetry, quantified
by a velocity V . For values of V less than a critical velocity Vc , the FDT is weakly violated, while for
values larger than Vc it is strongly violated: the ratio
X of the response to the time derivative of the correlation decreases continuously from its equilibrium
value, at V = 0, until it vanishes at Vc [t11/098].
(See figure.)
The same questions can be addressed in higher
dimension for Ising spins, or for the spherical model
as defined by Berlin and Kac, where spins are real
variables submitted to a spherical constraint. While
the 2D asymmetric Ising model can only be investigated by numerical means, the dynamics of the
spherical model is solvable in any dimension even
when it is asymmetric. All the phenomenology described above holds for these models, namely the
Gibbsian nature of the stationary state and the dynamical transition from weak to strong violation of
the FDT when varying the magnitude of the asymmetry [t13/035].
Coming back to the Ising chain, we noticed that
any choice of flipping rate, depending on the central
spin and its nearest neighours and invariant under
spin reversal, yields the same stationary measure as
that of the reversible model. In higher dimension,
for Ising models on regular lattices, the situation
is different. In two dimensions, only specific rates
satisfy this condition. In contrast, it is remarkable
to observe that, for the three-dimensional cubic lattice, the only rate functions yielding a Gibbsian stationary measure correspond to reversible dynamics
[t09/309, t13/085].

Ideal Glass Transitions by Random Pinning
The hallmarks of the glass transition, a very rapid increase of the relaxation time and the freezing
in a low temperature unpredictable amorphous phase, are also the main obstacles to study it.
We propose a way to short-circuit these problems. It allows one to cross the glass transition in
equilibrium and obtain a million years aged glass in a few seconds. This opens the way to an
entire new set of investigations and to crucial tests of the glass transition theories.
Systems generically called "glassy" are central
to several fields from statistical mechanics and soft
matter, to material science and biophysics. They
are characterized by an extremely rugged (free) energy landscape whose global minimum is not known
and whose local minima trap the system during its
dynamical evolution. Super-cooled molecular liquids
(and their glass transition) are a paradigmatic example: their typical time scales increase from picoseconds to hours in a restricted temperature window.
This feature, which is the hallmark of the glass transition, is also the main obstacle to study it because
liquids inevitably fall out of equilibrium before approaching closely the critical point. Moreover, contrary to usual phase transition, the low temperature
phase is unaccessible both in reality and in numerical studies: finding the ideal glass is a daunting
optimization problem. In [t11/282] we proposed a
way to short-circuit these obstacles, cross the phase
transition and sample the ideal glass in equilibrium.
Our starting assumption is that glassy behavior is
due to a competition between gaining configurational entropy, the part of the entropy counting the
(huge) number of amorphous states in which a liquid can freeze, and exploring low-energy and hence
less numerous states. Within this scenario the ideal
glass transition takes place at the temperature below which the system is forced to only explore the
lowest free energy states. Our main idea is that
by pinning particles at random from an equilibrium
configuration one favors some states over the others,
thus decreasing the number of states which are explored during the evolution, exactly as it happens
when lowering the temperature. Eventually, above
a critical pinning fraction fc only one state survives:
the one in which the initial configuration was settled in. Therefore, through pinning one can induce
an ideal glass transition even at rather high temperatures. The crucial difference with respect to standard cooling protocols is that now one can easily
sample the ideal glass in equilibrium: one just has
to pin a large enough fraction of particles (larger
than fc ). In [t11/277, t12/219] we worked out a
complete theory of the random pinning glass transition based on mean-field (static and dynamic) methods and a renormalization group treatment. Our
work provides a new and very promising research
direction in the glass transition field. First, demonstrating that pinning does induce a glass transition
will allow one to show that our main physical assumption about the nature of the glass transition
is basically correct. Second, since one can now approach the glass transition from the liquid but also
from the ideal glass side, thoroughly studying the
nature of the transition becomes feasible by using
the usual studying machinery of phase transitions,
in particular finite size scaling. A first numerical
analysis of random pinning glass transition by Kob
and Berthier confirmed our predictions. The figure
below vividly shows the effect of pinning particles.
Large spheres represent pinned particles, small dots
are the superposition of the position of fluid particles obtained from a large number of independent
equilibrium configurations. Above a certain fraction
of pinned particles, all the other particles just vibrate around amorphous positions, thus unveiling
the thermodynamic nature of the glass transition at
which the fluid freezes in the most favorable amorphous state.

Pseudo-gap state from quantum criticality
The nature of the pseudo-gap state in high temperature cuprate superconductors remains one
of the most enduring mysteries of condensed matter physics. Despite almost twenty five years
of intense research, no consensus has been reached upon questions as fundamental as the role
of strong coupling fluctuations or the influence of quantum criticality on the phase diagram of
those compounds.
The physics of high temperature superconductors has triggered a huge body of experimental and
theoretical work in the last twenty five years. It
could be said that, during all this time, these compounds have been at the forefront of research in
condensed matter physics, leading to strong experimental progresses in techniques like X-ray scattering, angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) or
scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Conceptually, the main issue has been to decide whether the
physics of these compounds is dominated by the
Coulomb interaction between the electrons (strong
coupling approach), or rather by the quantum fluctuations (weak coupling approach).
A pseudo-gap (PG) state is generated around the antiferromagnetic QCP. This new state of matter is characterized by a dual order parameter, made of a d-wave
superconductor and a checkerboard quadrupolar density
wave, related by SU (2) symmetry. At low temperature,
the curvature of the Fermi surface breaks the SU (2) symmetry and favors the SC state. When the temperature
is raised, thermal fluctuations restore the symmetry and
create the pseudo-gap state.
In [t13/129] we revisit the longstanding issue of a
zero temperature anti-ferromagnetic (AF) transition
in the phase diagram of the cuprates. The Quantum Critical Point (QCP) in 2D has been introduced
shortly after the discovery of the cuprates, in the
work of Pines and Chubukov. Recently it has been
noticed that quantum fluctuations in 2D induce a series of diagrams that were not accounted for in the
standard theory. These diagrams exhibit a planar
structure. In our study we found an analogy with
the theory of Anderson localization in 2D, which
states that bosonic modes (so-called “Cooperons”
and “Diffusons”) emerge out of quantum fluctuations
and can be resummed in series of ladder diagrams;
this situation is similar with the planar diagrams
emerging out of an AF QCP in 2D. Particle-particle
(analogous to “Cooperons”) and particle-hole (analogous to “Diffusons”) ladders can be identified and
resummed. When we linearize around the hot spots,
at the mean-field level, those two modes condense
into a composite order parameter, which has a component in the Cooper channel in the form of d-wave
superconducting (SC) gap, and a component in the
charge channel in the form of a quadrupolar density
wave order parameter (QDW) showing checkerboard
modulations. The two components of this composite
order parameter are connected by SU (2) symmetry.
When the curvature of the Fermi surface is taken
into account, the SU (2) symmetry is broken and
the SC component is favored. Alternatively, when a
magnetic field is is applied, the SC component is disfavored and the QDW order parameter is stabilized.
The mechanism is controlled by a small parameter,
proportional to the angle between the Fermi velocities at two anti-ferromagnetic hot spots. The elegance of our solution resides in the fact that complex
features emerge out of one of the simplest models of
correlated electrons, involving only one QCP.
The experimental progresses in STM and soft Xrays have recently revealed the presence of checkerboard structures, with modulation related with
the positions of the hot spots, in the underdoped
phases of YBCO and BSCCO compounds where the
pseudo-gap is large. Quantum oscillations measurements, as well as sound experiments, confirm the
stabilization of a checkerboard charge ordering under a magnetic field ∼17 T. We expect that our controlled solution will shed light on the longstanding
issue of the role of AF paramagnons in the physics of
cuprates. This work was performed during the visit
of K. Efetov, recipient of a “Chaire Blaise Pascal”.

Entanglement in low-dimensional magnets
Quantum entanglement and related quantum information concepts (fidelity, matrix product state,
tensor networks, entanglement spectrum,. . . ) have become a active field of research in condensed
matter. It aims at a deeper understanding of quantum correlations in strongly interacting systems, and it also lead to progress in the numerical algorithms to simulate quantum many-body
problems. Some of these ideas have lead to new efficient ways to detect and characterize numerically some exotic states of matter, called topological liquids, which cannot be distinguished or
detected using conventional order parameters (quantum Hall fluids, spin liquids,. . . ). The scaling
of entanglement in quantum critical states is also of great conceptual interest.

topological order (of Z2 -type) [t11/215] where the

about the type of topological order (so called total
quantum dimension).

Very few exact results have been obtained so far
concerning entanglement in space dimension larger
than one. We have however found a way to efficiently
compute the entanglement entropies of some large
subsystems in a particular class of states in d = 2
[t09/189]. In this class of wave-functions (so-called
Rokhsar-Kivelson), the amplitudes are given by the
Boltzmann weights of an auxiliary two-dimensional
system with short-range interactions .1 Our starting point is the simple but new observation that, for
these wave-functions, the eigenvalues of the reduced
density matrix ρA of the subsystem A (obtained by
tracing over the degrees of freedom located in region
B) are the classical probabilities to observe certain
microscopic configurations at the boundary between
regions A and B. In turn, these probabilities can
be efficiently evaluated using transfer matrix techniques. This new connection between quantum entanglement in d = 2 + 1 dimensions and classical
probabilities along a line in d = 2+0 allows to shortcut two formidable tasks: i) computing ρA by tracing out the degrees of freedom in B, ii) diagonalizing
ρA .
This construction allowed to study the scaling of the entanglement entropy of several wavefunctions describing quantum (zero temperature)
critical points: The entropy has a leading term proportional to the length L of the boundary between
A and B (see Fig.), followed by some universal subleading constant s. This last term deserves some
attention since it contains some universal information about the long-distance physics. For instance,
for critical states with central charge c = 1, we
showed that s is a related to the boson compactification radius R (through s = log(R) − 12 ), and
hence to the correlation exponents. This study also
lead to a new connection between Rényi entropies
and boundary critical phenomena in conformal field
theory [t10/225, t11/215].2

Finally, some of these results found some unexpected applications to quantum 1d systems and to
the Shannon entropy of the ground-state in particular [t10/225, t11/102]. We also made some
progress concerning the entanglement of two disjoint
intervals (called mutual information) in gapless spin
chains [t08/187], where we showed that it is scale
invariant and also gives access to the boson compactification radius (Luttinger parameter) in critical chains with central charge c = 1 (an information

entropy).

Evolution of spatial networks
Complex systems are very often organized under the form of ‘spatial networks’ where nodes and
edges are embedded in space. Transportation and mobility networks, Internet, mobile phone
networks, power grids, social and contact networks, neural networks, are all examples where
space is relevant and where topology alone does not contain all the information. Characterizing
and modeling the structure and the evolution of spatial networks is thus crucial for many different
fields such as engineering, urbanism, neurophysiology, or epidemiology.

A.1.2
Scientific production
It is difficult to select 5 "most relevant" results across the last 5-year period, due to the
vast variety of themes covered by our research.
The 22 “highlights" presented below already represent a controversial choice.
Here are the total numbers of publications, according to the ISI Web of Science (these
data only account for published material).

projects (3 coordinated at IPhT), 21 "ANR Blanc" projects (12 coordinated at IPhT).
A.1.4
Teaching and formation
1. Each year we propose 4-6 “IPhT graduate courses", taught by our members, long term
visitors or external professors. Each course lasts 6-12h, and the topics change every
year. They are validated by the Ecole Doctorale de Physique.
2. each year we welcome 6-9 new PhD students at IPhT, and 6-15 master students. We
also regularly welcome external PhD students for a few months.
3. 23 permanent members have taught in Bachelors, Masters, or postgraduate courses.
Almost all our permanent members have taught in summer schools. Many organize
summer schools.
A.1.5
Interaction with the socio-cultural environment

Usually, seminars take place in the IPhT seminar room (Claude Itzykson room), which can contain up
to 50 persons. For larger events, we can use in the same building an amphitheater for 140 persons (Amphi
Claude Bloch).
A.5.2
Claude Itzykson meetings
The Claude Itzykson meetings are the main scientific events at IPhT. Created to honour the memory of
Claude Itzykson, they have become a tradition. Every year in June, scientists from all over the world
(mainly but not only physicists) meet for a few days to cover the main recent advances on a targeted
theme. Two important features are the insistence on pedagogical seminars and the opportunity given to
young researchers as well as established experts to give a talk.

Some statistics
The data in the following table have been compiled by the CEA central library, using the ISI Web of
Science database. They include published material submitted to the peer-review process: articles, letters,
reviews, comments, proceedings published in peer-reviewed journals. They exclude books, proceedings
published in books or series.
“Expected IF" means that each article is weighted by the current impact factor of the journal.
The top n% corresponds to the best cited articles in physics, for the corresponding year.
We also give the percentage of our publications in collaboration with foreign, resp. European colleagues.

Table 20: Quantitative data on our publications (after ISI Web of Science)
The above statistics does not differentiate between peer-reviewed articles and proceedings.
Below we present the statistics of our own database. The figures do not match the above table,
because we count our publications according to the year they are registered in our database, which mostly
happens several months (or years) before they are published. Our database allows to differentiates between
preprints, articles published in peer-reviewed journals, proceedings, books, theses.
