Status<\/h5>\n

Assistant Professor<\/p>\n

Research Topic<\/h5>\n

Innovation in condensed matter physics via matrix product renormalization group<\/p>\n

Quantum spin liquids, which lack magnetic order down to extremely low temperatures, provide an ideal stage for all manner of quantum phenomena that transcend conventional wisdom in condensed matter physics. Dynamically manipulating quantum spin liquids not only enables quantum computing but also leaves the properties of these systems themselves shrouded in mystery. I will employ novel research methods to tackle several unsolved problems in quantum condensed matter physics.<\/p>\n
