Antoine Georges is a professor at the Collège de France in Paris, where he holds the Chair of Condensed Matter Physics. He is also the director of the Center for Computational Quantum Physics at the Flatiron Institute in New York. His research focuses on strongly correlated quantum systems, covering materials such as transition metal oxides, rare-earth compounds, organic conductors, and nanostructured systems like quantum dots and oxide heterostructures. His work has also extended to quantum optics, particularly in the study of ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices. He is a co-inventor of Dynamical Mean-Field Theory (DMFT), a theoretical approach that has contributed to understanding these complex materials. Before 1990, his research included statistical physics of disordered systems, specifically non-Brownian diffusion in inhomogeneous media. Georges has collaborated with experimental teams in France and internationally. In 2023, he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences.
