Research
My research interests are mainly grounded in the field of condensed matter theory and they include:
- Transport in mesoscopic systems
- Topological matter: Majorana fermions in topological superconductors and topological insulators; Weyl and Dirac semimetals
- Non-Hermitian systems: non-Hermitian topology, dissipative superconductors
- Odd-frequency superconductivity: pair symmetry classification, dynamical Cooper pairs
- Floquet engineering: light-controlled phases, nonequilibrium superconductivity, collective modes
- Quantum computing: qubits, quantum gates, quantum simulations
