RESEARCH

My research interest is focused on the theoretical investigation of novel quantum phenomena arising in topological insulators, topological superconductors, and topological metals such as Weyl semimetals. In particular, recently, I am interested in exotic transport phenomena associated with chiral anomaly inherent in Weyl semimetals and Weyl superconductors, which may be realized in various correlated electron systems. I am also exploring for novel distinct features of non-Abelian statistics of Majorana fermions in topological superconductors, which can be utilized for the experimental detection of this effect.
