Issues addressed and main goals of research:
Development of analytical and numerical methods for studying complex many-body systems that are of current interest in modern condensed matter physics, the development of mathematical models of these systems and the identification of universal laws on the example of studied models. Analysis of both lattice and field-theory models of equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical systems and modeling of a wide class of new materials, including nanostructured materials, which are of great practical importance. The concepts of scaling and universality allow one to go beyond the model approach and to apply the results obtained to broad classes of phenomena studied in the physics of condensed matter. The results obtained will be used in carrying out experimental studies of condensed matter at JINR. It is important to note the markedly growing interdisciplinary nature of research, where condensed matter physics and statistical physics closely intersect with atomic and nuclear physics, particle physics, mathematical physics, astrophysics, and biology.
