Nominator's project description

Professor Fiete is an outstanding scientist who has made contributions across a wide range of topics in quantum matter and correlated electron systems. He has made important contributions to the field of topological physics, specifically the prediction of novel fractional quantum Hall states and the analysis of relativistic electron physics in the solid state. In Germany, he will focus on the many-body dynamics and nonlinear response of quantum materials.
