Exploring Topological Phases in Rydberg Atom Arrays - Giulia Semeghini
Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of topological phases in Rydberg atom arrays in this 47-minute conference talk by Giulia Semeghini from Harvard University. Delve into recent developments at the intersection of topology, symmetry, and interactions in quantum systems. Gain insights into the effects of correlations on non-interacting topological insulators, semimetals, and superconductors. Discover how symmetry and strong correlations cooperate to produce correlated topological phases in Kondo systems. Examine the principles of topology and interactions revealed by Moire heterostructures. Investigate the connection between higher-order topology and fracton systems, and its potential for identifying solid-state candidates. Consider how topology might provide a non-perturbative framework for understanding strongly correlated gapless phases like strange metals. This talk, part of a broader conference organized by the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, aims to enhance cross-talk between weakly and strongly correlated communities interested in topology and explore unifying themes for electronic topology across various materials and correlation strengths.
