Antoine Georges

In 1989, he became a postdoctoral fellow at Princeton University in order to work on high-critical-temperature superconductors in the group of Phil Anderson.^[2] In the Fall of 1990, he started collaborating with Gabriel Kotliar who had recently joined Rutgers University and together they developed today's formulation of Dynamical Mean Field Theory by mapping it onto the self-consistent solution of a quantum impurity model. He also worked with Anirvan Sengupta on Kondo effects and performed theoretical work on spin glasses and quantum spin liquids along with Olivier Parcollet and Subir Sachdev. He returned to Ecole Normale Supérieure in 1991 as a researcher with the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique and an adjunct professor at Ecole Polytechnique.

In 2003, he was appointed full professor at Ecole Polytechnique and relocated there, creating a research group in theoretical condensed matter physics at the Centre de Physique Théorique. He was the chair of the physics department of Ecole Polytechnique from 2006 to 2009. In 2009, he was elected a professor at the Collège de France on the chair of condensed matter physics.^[3][4]

In 2010 he was named Sommerfeld lecturer by LMU Munich and in 2011 became Schrödinger lecturer at the ETH Zurich. The same year he became a part-time professor at the University of Geneva and prior to all of it, he was a recipient of the Dargelos Prize in 2004 from his alma mater. In 2006 he was awarded the Europhysics Prize in condensed matter and next year he was honoured with a CNRS Silver Medal.^[5][6] He has been jointly awarded the 2022 Feenberg Memorial Medal with Gabriel Kotliar and Dieter Vollhardt for work that has significantly advanced the field of many-body physics.^[7]
