Welcome to RPMBT15.

The 15th meeting of the series International Conference on Recent Progress in Many Body Theories (RPMBT15) will take place in the Department of Physics at The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH from July 27-31, 2009.

On July 26, the sunday before the conference, there will be pedagogical tutorials by G. Kotliar, S. Mathur, M. Randeria and S. Sachdev.

The Conference continues the series initiated in Trieste in 1978 and is devoted to new developments in the field of many-body theories. The focus is on the development and application of theoretical methods and computational algorithms driven by a strong experimental motivation for quantum many-body systems arising in diverse subfields of physics. A central event of the Conference is the Feenberg Award Session in which the nominee will receive the 2009 Feenberg Medal.
