| Quantum Geometry: How to Picture Bound Electrons in Periodic Lattices |
Abstract: The concept of quantum geometry has been at the forefront of condensed matter physics, starting from how quantized Berry curvature leads to quantized Hall conductivity, anomalous velocities in Dirac metals, or other topological responses in a growing list… Show more Speaker: Prof. Raquel Queiroz, Columbia University |
