The University of California, Davis (UC Davis) received a $158,000 CAREER grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics and Division of Materials Research. The award, effective March 1, 2024 through February 28, 2029, will support UC Davis's development of a theoretical framework to predict properties of strongly entangled quantum many-body systems. The project aims to discover topological invariants that can characterize many-body quantum phases, extract these invariants from numerical and experimental data, and develop numerical methods to simulate and interpret low-energy properties of interacting quantum many-body systems. The research activities will be disseminated broadly, and an education and outreach plan will train a graduate student and postdoctoral scholar as well as host a quantum computing and entanglement bootcamp for underrepresented college students.
