Lukasz Fidkowski
Lukasz Fidkowski is an American theoretical solid-state physicist.
Fidkowski graduated from Harvard University with a bachelor's degree in mathematics in 2001 and received a PhD in theoretical physics from Stanford University in 2008 , was a post-doctoral student at Caltech (2007-2010), Microsoft Station Q (2010-2012) and the University of California, Berkeley (2012/13). From 2013 he was Assistant Professor at the State University of New York at Stony Brook . He has been an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington since 2017 .
He was a visiting researcher at the Perimeter Institute .
He deals with exotic phases of matter, especially topological phases ( topological insulator and strongly interacting variants, SPT, symmetry protected topological phases ). SPT provide exotic edge states and allow the phenomena of topological insulators and superconductors to be transferred to more general fermion, boson and spin systems. He used methods of topological quantum field theory and precisely solvable models. He also studies topological phases resulting from the realization of Floquet systems in many -body systems , with phenomena of topological phases such as symmetry fractionation, and deals with the application of topological phases in quantum information theory .
From 2015 to 2017 he was a Sloan Research Fellow. For 2020 he received the New Horizons in Physics Prize for decisive contributions to the understanding of the topological states of matter and their connections to one another (laudation).
