Our understanding of universal phenomena in interacting many-body systems ranging from subatomic to astronomical scales relies largely on the hydrodynamic framework. In the past few years, hydrodynamics has become a central theme of quantum condensed matter, soft matter (in the form of non-equilibrium active fluids), high-energy physics, and quantum information. The proposed workshop continues in this tradition and aims to bring together a group of creative experts, young and old, to synthesize these insights from disparate fields and push the frontier of hydrodynamics in quantum and classical systems. The topics to be covered fall in three broad categories: (1) Higher-gradient hydrodynamic effects in chiral matter, both classical and quantum, such as the Hall viscosity and odd elasticity, as well as nonequilibrium field-theoretic approaches to deriving hydrodynamics; (2) Recent experimental developments in realizing the hydrodynamic regime of electron fluids; and (3) The hydrodynamics of active matter such as chiral active fluids, flocking etc.
