Hello! We are a theoretical physics group working in the area of Condensed Matter Physics, based in the Ohio State University.  We use quantum mechanics and statistical physics to study quantum many-body systems. Our efforts can be summarized in three categories:

• To classify and characterize quantum phases of matter

• To understand the phase transitions between them

• To comprehend and predict physical properties of solid state materials

More details of my research can be found here. 

Our research is funded by National Science Foundation (NSF) and by Center for Emergent Materials (CEM) , an NSF MRSEC, at OSU. 

If you are interested in joining our group, please feel free to contact me by email.
