PHYS-758: Advanced Course on Quantum CommunicationThe aim of this doctoral course by Nicolas Sangouard is to lay the theoretical groundwork that is needed for students to understand how to take advantage of quantum effects for communication technolog
ENG-400: Water quality modelingThis course builds on environmental chemistry and microbiology taken in previous courses. The emphasis is on quantification using the public domain package, PHREEQC, which is an excellent computation
MATH-495: Mathematical quantum mechanicsQuantum mechanics is one of the most successful physical theories. This course presents the mathematical formalism (functional analysis and spectral theory) that underlies quantum mechanics. It is sim
CS-422: Database systemsThis course is intended for students who want to understand modern large-scale data analysis systems and database systems. It covers a wide range of topics and technologies, and will prepare students
MATH-680: Monstrous moonshineThe monstrous moonshine is an unexpected connection between the Monster group and modular functions. In the course we will explain the statement of the conjecture and study the main ideas and concepts
CS-602: Foundation of probabilistic proofsProbabilistic proof system (eg PCPs and IPs) have had a tremendous impact on the theoretical computer science, and have also found practical uses. They underlie delegation of computation protocols and
MATH-679: Group schemesThis is a course about group schemes, with an emphasis on structural theorems for algebraic groups (e.g. Barsotti--Chevalley's theorem). All the basics will be covered towards the proof of such theore
MATH-604: Some Aspects of Calculus of VariationsThe goal of this course is to present an overview on the solvability and the regularity of relevant models of physical, technological and economical systems, which may be formulated as minimization pr
PENS-223: Waters within citiesKnowledge of how to articulate the "urban transition" is today urgently needed. The course reflects on the possibility of designing an urban space without negatively impacting on its water quality.
