About Myself - Fields of Research

My research has been dedicated to the field of solid-state theory, mostly dealing with the interplay between coherence and dissipation in quantum transport, to a lesser extent with electronic structure calculations.  Materials-wise my work originally focused mostly on semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures, later also on superconductors (qubits) and topological insulators. Recent and current work has been/is dedicated to the development of numerical tools for/and the simulation of transport on elctromagnetically-textured topological insulator surfaces.
