Research Title: Strongly coupled quantum many-body systems and quantum dynamics Abstract: My research has been focused on the following topics: 1. Spinor gases and fractionalized topological excitations; 2. Quantum-fluctuation driven ordering and dynamics; 3. Strong coupling physics near scale invariant fixed points; 4. Emergent symmetries and correlations in quantum many-body dynamics; 5. Topological quantum phases, symmetry-protected quantum criticality and many-body entanglement; 6. Emergent quantum chaos, quantum hydrodynamics and holographic dissipation. Generally, I am interested in emergent quantum phenomena (beyond standard paradigms) in condensed matter systems such as emergent causality, supersymmetric quantum dynamics, quantum anomalies, and stability of topological gapless phases etc. NOTE: Recent research papers can be found here.
