We develop computational tools to accelerate the exploration and discovery of exotic quantum matters.
Electronic structure encodes the microscopic origins of chemical behavior. We develop and apply quantum chemistry methods to accurately simulate electronic structure, with a particular focus on strongly correlated systems where electron correlation gives rise to exotic quantum phases such as the Kondo effect and unconventional superconductivity.
Quantum information technologies need deeper conceptual understanding and better material platforms. We study and design materials with exotic quantum properties, including unconventional superconductivity, fracton phases, and many-body localization, to accelerate progress in quantum information science and technology.
Sustainable and low-cost energy resources are essential for modern technology. We use quantum chemistry and AI platforms developed in the group to accelerate the discovery of new energy materials and identify efficient solutions for the computational demands of the HPC and GPU era.
