As researchers in condensed matter theory, our primary objective involves deciphering the connection between the microscopic interactions of countless atoms or molecules and the observable characteristics of solids and liquids. This principle holds true for everyday substances like table salt or water, but we also explore quantum analogs of these states of matter. For instance, numerous metals can be effectively modeled as a collection of weakly interacting electrons, while other materials exhibit such intense electron-electron correlations that they manifest as highly entangled quantum fluids.
