Research Interest

I am interested in the exotic quantum phases that emerge in strongly correlated electron systems. My research focuses on uncovering the universal properties of these many-body states, such as topological order and fractionalization, using the framework of topological field theory.

By exploring the macroscopic responses and dynamics of emergent excitations, I aim to establish fundamental theories that describe novel states of matter and their potential applications in future quantum technologies.

Keywords:

  • Fractional quantum Hall effect
  • Anyon, fractional statistics
  • TQFT (Topological quantum field theory)
  • Modular tensor category
  • Duality of field theory
