Can the second Chern number be realized in a two-dimensional plane? Yes, it can - you just need to curve the plane!

Our work on "Hyperbolic Non-Abelian Semimetal" about a 2D nodal semimetal stabilized by second Chern number just appeared in @PhysRevLett.

We are happy to host an inspiring workshop with Joanthon Keats @jonathonkeats this weekend @UZH_en , using arts to reflect on what really matters

A delicious cake to celebrate our recent work being accepted in #PRB! We have explored the possible charge orders in kagome materials with an enlarged unit cell, paving the way for future tests on these intriguing materials (https://t.co/QjBh0DGS40)

@UZH_TopoMat To a lot of cool ideas that shall emerge on this blackboard!

Congrats to our student Patrick Lenggenhager at @ETH_physics & @psich_en, also affiliated with @UZHMat, for defending your PhD thesis! Beside a nicely decorated hat, Patrick got as a present a handcrafted model of Klein quartic. We wish you exciting academic journey at @mpi_pks !

2D topological superconductivity is taking shape, built atom by atom as Shiba lattice. Take a look at our recent work https://t.co/L6BagdSyC7, led by Martina Soldini and Felix Küster in a wonderful collaboration between @UZHMat @UZHPhysics and the @PaoloSessi group @mpi_msp

Congratulations to Xiaoxiong Liu for a successful PhD defense, crowning exciting work towards quantitative microscopic modeling of nonlinear transport. Check out https://t.co/CBqq8H4q40 and wannier berri https://t.co/HtbQmXLFbq
All the best for the future!

Congratulations to Bastien Lapierre for a successful PhD defense packed with driven conformal field theory and topologically localized insulators! We will miss you in Zurich and wish you all the best in Princeton!

Graphene is electrical conductor. But when its two layers are stacked with a twist, the system can suddenly become insulating. Researchers from Prof. Neupert group @UZHmat , Oxford and Berkeley proposed an explanation to this issue!

Glenn Wagner from @UZHMat @UZHPhysics and collaborators predicted a phase of twisted bilayer graphene called Kekulé spiral https://t.co/9dc0bH1n6a. This has now been seen experimentally in @LabYazdani @PrincetonPhys https://t.co/bn9iy2Iet4. Congrats to this very nice success!

We love the emerging group tradition of a paper publication cake! This one is from Michael Denner to celebrate his @SciPost_Physics article on the flux response of non-Hermitian topological matter (https://t.co/DZsg5uqMnx)

[Condensed Matters @UZHMat]

There's an empty site to be filled! We have a postdoctoral opening in our group: we are looking for a motivated team member with expertise in computational quantum many-body physics. More info on the application, https://t.co/HmVxef7Zbp , Please spread the word!

[Condensed Matters @UZHMat]

Had a great time visiting @MPSDHamburg with many inspiring discussions. Looking forward to to all the cool physics that will be discovered in this wonderful new building!

[Tomáš Bzdušek @TomasBzdusek]

We are hiring!

2x PhD + 1x Postdoc in cond-mat theory.

Our research group, funded by an SNSF Starting Grant, will launch in October 2023!

We have shown that fully localized, three-dimensional, time-reversal-symmetry-broken insulators do not belong to a single phase of matter, but can realize topologically distinct phases, the topological localized insulators! You can find out more here: https://t.co/CG0rUV6LM5

Congratulations to David Urwyler on receiving the first Soluyanov Prize for the best theoretical physics master thesis @UZHPhysics @UZH_Science with his work on hyperbolic topological insulators. Thanks also to @TomasBzdusek for dedicated supervision!

[UZH Physik-Institut @UZHPhysics]

It was a great inauguration lecture of @mark_h_fischer talking about “Not just perfect conductors: contemplating symmetry and #topology of unconventional #superconductors”.
Congratulations ! 🎉🎉🎉
