Research Group
We are a theoretical physics research group at Bard College. We study how symmetry, topology, and locality organize quantum many-body systems, with a focus on classifying phases of matter, non-equilibrium dynamics, and open quantum systems.
Bio coming soon.
Rishabh earned his doctorate in theoretical condensed matter physics from the University of Göttingen, Germany, and is currently based at the University of Southern California, USA. His research focuses on strongly correlated quantum phases of matter beyond conventional paradigms, many-body non-equilibrium dynamics in both dissipative and closed systems, and the broader perspective offered by gauge-gravity duality.
Shrey is currently a PhD student in Physics at the University of Southern California. He did his undergrad at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in both Physics and Computer Science. He is generally interested in leveraging computational techniques to better understand non-equilibrium quantum dynamics.
Bio coming soon.
Funding
Our research is currently supported by the U.S. Department of Energy through an EXPRESS Award (2025–2027): "Leveraging Novel Symmetries for Noise-Resilient Topological Quantum Computation," a joint project with Prof. Stephan Haas at USC.
