Slow Relaxations and Non-Equilibrium Dynamics in Classical and Quantum Systems
read the original abstract
The aim of these lectures, given at the Les Houches Summer School of Physics "Strongly Interacting Quantum Systems Out of Equilibrium", is providing an introduction to several important and interesting facets of out of equilibrium dynamics. In recent years, there has been a boost in the research on quantum systems out of equilibrium. If fifteen years ago hard condensed matter and classical statistical physics remained rather separate research fields, now the focus on several kinds of out of equilibrium dynamics is making them closer and closer. The aim of my lectures was to present to the students the richness of this topic, insisting on the common concepts and showing that there is much to gain in considering and learning out of equilibrium dynamics as a whole research field.

Quantum quenches across continuous and first-order quantum transitions in one-dimensional quantum Ising models
Quantum quenches in the Ising chain exhibit qualitatively distinct out-of-equilibrium dynamics when crossing continuous versus first-order quantum transitions depending on the transverse field strength.
