Current Research

• Novel topological phases of matter in nonequilibrium systems, such as periodically driven quantum systems and effectively non-hermitian systems;
• Nonlinear dynamics and quantum chaos in few-body and many-body systems;
• Quantum dynamics control and quantum simulation;
• Fundamental aspects in quantum thermodynamics, especially on fluctuation theorems and nanoscale heat engines.

A nonequilibrium semimetal phase, featured by a border between Floquet higher-order topological insulators (FHTI) and anomalous Floquet topological insulators (AFI) on its 2D slices.
