Bethe ansatz and transport out of equilibrium

Bethe ansatz and transport out of equilibrium

Transport out of equilibrium in the presence of strong interactions remains one of the most active and difficult topics in condensed matter physics, be it theoretical, numerical, or experimental. Finding a non trivial, solvable example where things could be computed exactly using the Bethe ansatz would be a major conceptual step. I will review attempts in this direction of the past 15 years, together with what seems to be a first, unambiguously positive result.
