The theme of the Conference
The discovery of topological insulators (TIs) in condensed matter systems shifted the attention of the topology in high-energy physics to the topology in condensed matter systems. Topology in the quantum electronic states classifies the condensed matter systems like, the topological insulator in which the bulk is an insulator but the surface is conducting via the time-reversal symmetry protected electronic states and the topological semimetals (TSM) in which the bulk conducts via the electronic states protected by both the crystal and time-reversal symmetries. Different types of TSMs can be realized on the basis of the symmetry-protected band crossing points. Following the degeneracy of band crossing points and in combination with their topological characteristics, a number of different TSM families have been discovered which include Dirac and Weyl semimetals, nodal line, and nodal ring semimetals, triple-point semimetals, and multifold fermion semimetals. In addition, Majorana fermions are observed in topological superconductors and skyrmions are observed in the topological magnetic systems. Thus, the aim of this conference is to bring researchers across the globe working on this very fascinating field to a common forum and to share the knowledge.
