Massimo D’Elia is Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Physics Department of the University of Pisa. Alumnus of the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, he got his PhD in Physics from Pisa University in 1998. He has been Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Cyprus and at ETH, Zurich, and Assistant Professor at the Physics Department of the University of Genoa. He is an expert in Lattice Gauge Theories and their implementation on HPC infrastructures, with interests also in Quantum Computing and numerical approaches to Quantum Gravity. He has obtained various achievements, especially in the study of the Phase Diagram of strong interactions. He has served as a reviewer for major scientific journals and funding agencies. He is author of two textbooks and more than 200 papers.
Kurt Langfeld is Professor of Theoretical Physics and Head of School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds, England. His work in numerical methods for simulating Quantum Field Theories and Particle Physics is widely respected, with over 180 articles published in international journals.
In 1991, he was awarded a PhD in Theoretical Physics from Technical University of Munich. He went on to serve as Researcher and Lecturer at the University of T¨ubingen, Germany from 1991 to 2006; during this time he also enjoyed research visits to CEA, Saclay (Paris) and KIAS (Seoul). In 1999, he achieved the highly esteemed Venia Legendi award at the University of Tubingen. 2005 saw him become Professor for Theoretical Physics at the University of Tubingen, before moving on to Plymouth Univeristy as part of their Particle Physics group in 2006. April 2012 saw him assume full Professorship for Theoretical Physics at Plymouth and 2016 saw him become Professor and Head of Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Liverpool. In 2020, he took up his current role as Head of School of Mathematics at the University of Leeds.
He has dedicated himself to giving back to the community; he has been an active reviewer for the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), Austrian council FWF, Swiss National Supercomputer Center (CSCS). He is a member of the Parliament Scientific Committee, devoted trustee of the University of Liverpool Maths School (ULMaS) and part of the Steering Group opening an University sponsored Mathematics specialist 6th form in Leeds.
Biagio Lucini is a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales and a Professor of Mathematics at Swansea University. He was awarded a Ph.D. in Theoretical Particle Physics by Scuola Normale (Pisa, Italy) in 2000. Before joining Swansea University in 2005, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Rudolf Peierls Centre for Theoretical Physics (Oxford University, UK) from 2000 to 2003 and at the Theoretical Physics Institute of ETH (Zurich, Switzerland) from 2003 to 2005. Fellowship and awards he has received include a Royal Society Wolfson Merit Award (2017-2022) and a Leverhulme Research Fellowship (2020-2022). His research activity is centred around Monte Carlo calculations in Statistical Mechanics and Particle Physics. In particular, his interests are in Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena, including machine learning approaches and efficient algorithms for simulations near criticality using High Performance Computing architectures. To date, his scientific contributions have resulted in over 180 research papers.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
