I am interested in different aspects of interactions, topology, and disorder in electronic quantum matter. I am usually inspired by experimental puzzles that highlight evidence of non-Fermi liquid transport, unconventional superconductivity beyond a weak-coupling limit, and quantum criticality that does not fit into the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm.

My theoretical research interests span a broad spectrum of classical and quantum condensed matter. These range from entropy-dominated liquid crystals, colloids, membranes, rubber and other “soft” matter to quantum matter, such as superconductors, magnets, degenerate atomic gases, quantum Hall and other topological states of matter, most recently fractons and their interplay of elasticity duals. I aim to understand the nature of phases and phase transitions exhibited by these systems, with the unifying theme of collective universal behavior that emerges at long scales and low energies, driven by a combination of strong interactions, fluctuations, and/or local heterogeneity.

I am an experimentalist who is interested in quantum states of matter including magnets, superconductors, and topological materials. I exploit and develop techniques using low frequency microwave and THz range radiation that probe these systems at their natural frequency scales. The material systems of interest often require new measurement techniques as their relevant frequencies typically fall between the range of usual optical and electronic methods.

I am a theorist studying collective and emergent phenomena in condensed matter physics through the lens of quantum field theory. My research focuses on constructing and using effective field theories to describe compressible phases, thermalization, and out-of-equilibrium dynamics. I also work on developing non-perturbative methods, including anomalies, sum rules, and other techniques that connect UV to IR, linking microscopic details to emergent dynamics at large scales.

Our group is developing new probes of quantum matter using coherent X-ray beams. More than 60 years after the demonstration of the visible laser, it is finally possible to generate laser-like beams spanning the deep-UV, extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray regions of the spectrum by harnessing high harmonic upconversion of femtosecond lasers. Moreover, by combining phase matching techniques and selection rules, we can achieve exquisite “quantum” control over x-ray light. It is now possible to produce short wavelength waveforms with controlled spectral and temporal shapes, polarization state, and phase structure.
