How Wavefunction Geometry Helps Explain the Electromagnetic Responses of Solids
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of wavefunction geometry and its role in explaining electromagnetic responses of solids in this insightful 47-minute lecture by Joel Moore. Delivered as part of the "Periodically and Quasi-Periodically Driven Complex Systems" program at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, this talk delves into the intersection of quantum mechanics and solid-state physics. Gain a deeper understanding of how the geometric properties of wavefunctions contribute to the behavior of materials under electromagnetic fields. The lecture is part of a broader program that brings together experts from various fields, including closed quantum systems, open quantum systems, and gauge theory, to explore topics such as terahertz and infrared driven quantum matter, shaken optical lattices, Floquet time crystals, and localization-delocalization physics in quasi-periodically driven systems.
