Project Details
Topology and dynamics (A01)
Subject Area
Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics
Term
since 2016
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 277101999
The project investigates how topological states and excitations can be created and manipulated in time-dependent systems focusing on time crystals, anomalous Floquet topological phases, and corresponding quantum devices. We explore how quantum pumps and time crystals can be realized in solid state systems and how Coulomb interactions affect Floquet-Majorana states. Topological defects in space-time crystals will be studied with a focus on properties which do not have any counterpart in equilibrium.
