Plenary Talk
I will discuss in simple terms some topics emerging from recent
studies of quantum systems driven away from equilibrium. Particular
emphasis will be given to the integrable/non-integrable nature of the
Hamiltonian and to its local properties.

Talk
In closed integrable systems, thermalization after a quantum quench is precluded by the existence of infinitely many conserved charges. The idea of the generalized Gibbs ensemble (GGE) is to include all local conserved charges into the canonical density operator with appropriate Lagrange-multipliers to ensure conservation of local charges. It is a nontrivial question whether the GGE correctly...
