Description of the research topic:

"Quantum Field Theories play an important role in many branches of physics. On the one hand, they provide the language in which we formulate the fundamental interactions of Nature including the electro-weak and strong interactions. On the other hand, they are frequently used in effective models appearing in particle, solid state or statistical physics. In most of these applications the physical system has a finite size: scattering experiments are performed in a finite accelerator/detector, solid state systems are analyzed in laboratories, even the lattice simulations of gauge theories are performed on finite lattices etc. The understanding of finite size effects are therefore unavoidable and the ultimate goal is to solve QFTs for any finite volume.
The project initiates the determination of finite volume correlation functions via finite volume form factors based on the already determined infinite volume form factors and scattering matrix. "
