Condensed Matter Theory @ Notre Dame
Quantum many-body phases with intertwined symmetry,
topology, and interaction.
* We currently have funding for Ph.D opening(s) in topological phases, unconventional superconductivity, and machine learning applications in CM physics. Contact us to find out more information.
