Two-dimensional Percolation Across a Thermodynamic Metal-Insulator Transition

A 13-minute conference talk by Bhavtosh Bansal from the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences exploring two-dimensional percolation across a thermodynamic metal-insulator transition. This presentation is part of the 10th Indian Statistical Physics Community Meeting, an annual discussion gathering scientists, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students working in statistical physics. The meeting covers diverse topics including mathematical aspects, out-of-equilibrium systems, quantum fluids, disordered systems, biological physics, soft matter, nonlinear physics, and interdisciplinary complex systems. Explore percolation theory in the context of phase transitions, particularly focusing on the metal-insulator transition in two-dimensional systems.
