Overall introduction:
This seminar is about integrable systems. In the first part, we are going to follow the book of Gleb Arutyunov, Elements of classical and quantum integrable systems, which includes the topics about Liouville Integrability, Integrability from Symmetries, Quantum-Mechanical Integrable Systems, Factorised Scattering Theory, Bethe ansatz and Integrable Thermodynamics. When we cover these topics, we plan to discuss some advanced topics related to quantum field theories. Listeners are welcome to suggest some interesting topics about integrable systems and give talks.
