The Moiré superlattice realized in two-dimensional heterostructures offers an exciting platform to access strongly correlated electronic states. In this work, we study transition metal …
Fractal Hofstadter bands have become widely accessible with the advent of moiré superlattices, opening the door to studies of the effect of interactions in these systems. In this …
We study mean-field states resulting from the pairing of electrons in time-reversal broken fractal Hofstadter bands, which arise in two-dimensional lattices where the unit cell traps …
Pair-density waves (PDWs) are superconducting states that spontaneously break translation symmetry in systems with time-reversal symmetry (TRS). Evidence for PDWs has been seen …

Recently, two-dimensional Dirac materials patterned with a superlattice structure have emerged as a rich platform for exploring correlated and topological quantum matter. In this …
Topological field theories emerge at low energy in strongly correlated condensed matter systems and appear in the context of planar gravity. In particular, the study of Chern-Simons …

An interplay between pairing and topological orders has been predicted to give rise to superconducting states supporting exotic emergent particles, such as Majorana particles …
This dissertation investigates novel quantum phenomena in fractal electronic energy bands also known as Hofstadter bands. In two-dimensional lattices subject to an external …
Topological superconductors have been proposed as a platform for realizing Majorana modes—non-Abelian anyons, and a possible first step towards topological quantum …
