Can the second Chern number be realized in a two-dimensional plane? Yes, it can - you just need to curve the plane! Our work on "Hyperbolic Non-Abelian Semimetal" about a 2D nodal semimetal stabilized by second Chern number just appeared in @PhysRevLett. journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…

A delicious cake to celebrate our recent work being accepted in #PRB! We have explored the possible charge orders in kagome materials with an enlarged unit cell, paving the way for future tests on these intriguing materials (arxiv.org/pdf/2307.02528.pdf)

Congrats to our student Patrick Lenggenhager at @ETH_physics & @psich_en, also affiliated with @UZHMat, for defending your PhD thesis! Beside a nicely decorated hat, Patrick got as a present a handcrafted model of Klein quartic. We wish you exciting academic journey at @mpi_pks !

Graphene is electrical conductor. But when its two layers are stacked with a twist, the system can suddenly become insulating. Researchers from Prof. Neupert group @UZHmat , Oxford and Berkeley proposed an explanation to this issue! Read more in @PhysRevX: journals.aps.org/prx/abstrac…

We love the emerging group tradition of a paper publication cake! This one is from Michael Denner to celebrate his @SciPost_Physics article on the flux response of non-Hermitian topological matter (arxiv.org/abs/2208.11712)

We have shown that fully localized, three-dimensional, time-reversal-symmetry-broken insulators do not belong to a single phase of matter, but can realize topologically distinct phases, the topological localized insulators! You can find out more here: journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…

It was a great inauguration lecture of @mark_h_fischer talking about “Not just perfect conductors: contemplating symmetry and #topology of unconventional #superconductors”. Congratulations ! 🎉🎉🎉

We found chiral electrons in a nonchiral crystal, and probed them with nonlinear transport. They are switchable, too! Thanks for the amazing collab led by Philip Moll @MPSDHamburg with @mpi_CPfS @Gvamvim @mark_h_fischer . Now out in Nature rdcu.be/cXpWt
