This week, let’s spotlight an excellent foundational Nordita lecture series by Dr. Ivan Khaymovich, available in #OpenAccess on Enabla. This advanced Master-level course offers a modern introduction to the principles of thermalization, ergodicity, and their breakdown in both classical and quantum systems. It's a timely and valuable resource for students and researchers working on nonequilibrium dynamics, chaos, information thermodynamics, and localization phenomena.

💡 Even better: Ivan is on Enabla and happy to help clarify any questions you may have about the lectures. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of one of the most active frontiers in theoretical physics; watch and discuss the course with its author and others at https://enabla.com/set/182

📘 Key topics include:

🔹 Classical systems:
• Nonequilibrium and stochastic thermodynamics
• Jarzynski equality and Crooks relation
• Entropy production and the arrow of time
• Thermodynamics on trajectories and Maxwell's Demon
• Feedback and mutual information in thermodynamics
• Classical chaos and ergodicity

🔹 Quantum systems:
• Quantum chaos and thermalization
• Ergodicity measures and the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH)
• Random-matrix theory and eigenlevel statistics
• Anderson and many-body localization (MBL)
• Multifractality and ergodicity breaking beyond MBL
