General Research Interests
Theoretical Physics – Quantum Condensed Matter. I am interested in systems of many quantum particles, where strong interactions lead to new states of matter. These new states can potentially be realized in experimental systems ranging from strongly correlated materials to dilute atomic gases confined to optical lattices.
