non-equilibrium phases of matter and their applications to quantum information

"Broadly speaking, the goal of my PhD project is to investigate non-equilibrium phases of matter and their applications to quantum information. To provide some focus, we plan to partly concentrate our efforts on discrete time crystals (DTCs), a recently discovered non-equilibrium phase. DTCs are periodically-driven, or 'Floquet', systems, and as part of the PhD we hopeto develop some tools to study these systems. We are also currently collaborating with experimentalists on observations of DTCs, and we plan to continue this throughout the PhD."
