Dear Colleagues
The 22nd International Conference on Recent Progress in Many-Body Theories(RPMBT22) will be held from 23 to 27 September 2024, in Tsukuba, Japan. A series of theconferences offers an ideal opportunity to recognize important achievements and to showcase
significant new results in various aspects of many-body physics.

PresentationThe participants consist of researchers and students in different fields related to quantum
many-body physics. We would like to ask all the presenters to make their presentations
understandable for them.
Oral presentation

All the speakers (awardee/invited/contributed talks) are requested to upload his/her
presentation file to the conference website (Indico). Please upload your presentation file atleast one day before your presentation (you can update it afterwards). From the left menu,
go to “My Contributions” and select your contribution. At the bottom of the page, you find“Presentation Materials” where you can upload the presentation file. If you do not want toopen it to the public, switch on “Protected.” We recommend that you upload the PDF file,unless you really need to use PPT/KEY files. Name the file “Presenterʼs name.pdf.”
We would like to avoid possible connection troubles with your laptop. However, if it isnecessary to use your own PC for some reason (e.g., showing movies), please contact us inadvance and test the connection well before your presentation.
Poster presentation

The poster session is on Tuesday. The size of the poster panel is slightly different from but
approximately the A0 size. We recommend all the presenters to make their posters printed
in the A0 size (841 x 1189 mm). The poster is attached to the panel with tape.
Those who wish to present short oral presentations in the poster indexing session on

Tuesday must upload the one-page PDF slide to Indico, by following the same instruction
as that for the oral presenters. You should find two contributions with the same title. Selectthe one with “[Indexing].” The deadline for the upload is Monday, September 23.

Time schedule
A rough time schedule for the conference is planned as follows. The detailed conference
program is available on the conference website.

Award Session
The award session will be held on Thursday afternoon, September 26, 2024. There are twoawardees for the Feenberg Memorial Medal and one for the Hermann Kümmel Early
Achievement Award, in 2024.

Feenberg Memorial Medal
Eduardo Fradkin has been awarded the Feenberg Memorial Medal for

pioneering applications of quantum field theory to the understanding ofemergent, many-body physics of quantum systems, in particular composite
fermions, and electronic liquid crystalline and pair density wave phases of correlated
electronic systems.
Alexei Tsvelik has been awarded the Feenberg Memorial Medal for pioneering applicationsof quantum field theory to the understanding of emergent, many-body physics of quantum
systems, in particular the physics of magnetic impurities, disordered systems, and Majorana
representations of correlated problems.

Hermann Kümmel Early Achievement Award
Riccardo Rossi has been awarded the Hermann Kümmel Early Achievement

Award for young physicists whose published work is a significant contribution to quantum
many-body theory. This is for groundbreaking advances in computational quantum field
theory for many-fermion problems, including determinant algorithms for connecteddiagram expansions and resummation techniques, leading to key results on the unitary
Fermi gas and the Hubbard model.

Conference Venue
The conference will be held in Kasuga Auditorium (春⽇講堂) in University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba City, Japan. Thevenue is conveniently located on the north side of Tsukuba
Station of Tsukuba Express (TX) Line, within walking distancefrom the station and from Tsukuba Center bus terminal.

Wifi connections in the venue
The eduroam access is available at the venue. Please use your own username and password
to connect to the internet. For participants who cannot use the eduroam, we may provide
guest accounts of University of Tsukuba. Details will be shown at the venue.

Social Events
Conference dinner
The conference dinner will be held in theImperial Room (2F) in Hotel Grand
Shinonome （ホテルグランド東雲）onThursday, September 26th, starting at
18:30 pm. It is within walking distancefrom many hotels near Tsukuba Center,
about 10 minutes on foot from Tsukuba
station and from the conference venue.
Althoughweexpectmostoftheparticipants to walk there, we areplanning to have a shuttle service. If you want a ride, please contact the local organizers.

Welcome reception and registration
We welcome participants arriving in Tsukuba on Sunday to a welcome drink between 18:00
and 20:00 on Sunday, September 22nd, at Cafe “Engi” in Tsukuba Center. Please come tothe registration desk there and get a name tag and a ticket for Japanese craft beers. It is
located next to Hotel Nikko Tsukuba（ホテル⽇航つくば）. Go downstairs in front of thehotel, and you find a small plaza and an entrance to Cafe “Engi.” You can also access fromthe ground floor of Hotel Nikko Tsukuba, on the opposite side of the reception desk of thehotel.
On the Sunday evening, you may find many food stands
and beer booths with a large crowd in the open space,because it is within a period of the Beer Festival in Tsukuba
Center. You can enjoy beers and local foods at the Festival,but do not confuse this with our welcome drink of theconference.

Studentsʼ gathering
We plan to have an additional social event on Tuesday for students only. It could be a
precious opportunity for students from various countries/fields to get to know each other.
Details will be announced during the session. Look forward to it.

Proceedings
The proceedings of RPMBT22 will be published as a special volume of the open-access online
journal Particles. All the contributions, including oral and poster presentations, will be peer
reviewed prior to being accepted for publication. Details will be announced later.
