Emergent states of matter and quantum entanglement in quantum materials
Many-body electrons confined in materials show properties drastically different from those of a single electron in a vacuum. By integrating ab initio electronic structure calculations for quantum condensed matters, statistical approaches including machine learning, and quantum field theory, we, members of Quantum Materials Modeling Group, explore new functionality of many-body electrons in quantum materials.
Emergent states of matter and quantum entanglement in quantum materials
Information carriers, such as charges, spins, composite excitations, and fractionalized particles, are emerging in quantum materials and provide building blocks for quantum architectonics. By designing and analyzing these building blocks theoretically, and understanding emergent states of matter from and quantum entanglement among these information carriers, we will promote research on quantum materials and contribute to their applications to quantum devices.
