Research Theme: Theoretical Physics

Scientific high performance computing
Geometrical aspects of propagating waves
Nature of the interactions between particles

Our Theoretical Physics theme underpins much of the School's research. Our work encompasses diverse problems, from understanding fundamental features of quantum mechanics to unravelling many-body, topological and statistical effects in both quantum and classical regimes within solids, complex liquids and optics. We have considerable expertise in devising applications of emerging quantum technologies, using high-performance computing and modelling quantum materials and soft matter.
