Condensed Matter Theory Research Group
Topological and quantum matter
Our group investigates various aspects of quantum and topological materials. The current research problems are quantum geometry, interaction effects, novel magnetic materials (altermagnets and p-wave magnets), transport, and non-equilibrium responses. To tackle such problems, various tools of theoretical condensed matter physics including Green's functions, hydrodynamics, kinetic equations, etc. are employed.
We always look for motivated graduate and advanced undergraduate students to join our group.
