IISER Bhopal  ·  2022–2027 (Expected)  ·  CGPA 3.8/4.0

Working at the intersection of topology, symmetry, and quantum matter. My research focuses on topological superconductivity, proximitized pairing in heterostructures, Majorana zero modes, quantum magnetism, and engineered quantum materials, combining analytical and numerical methods toward experimentally relevant predictions.

What I Work On

01

Topological Quantum Matter & Magnetism

Topological phases in electronic and magnetic systems, Chern insulators, symmetry-protected topological Dirac nodal line magnonic phases in layered antiferromagnets, and thermal Hall responses.

02

Topological Superconductivity

Unconventional superconducting phases, Majorana zero modes, and the interplay of topology with magnetism and spin-orbit coupling in one- and two-dimensional systems.

03

Hybrid Superconductor Heterostructures

Proximity effects in hybrid systems spanning superconductors coupled to ferromagnets, semiconductors, and other correlated materials: encompassing both engineered and naturally occurring heterostructures. Focus on interfacial phenomena such as Andreev reflection, spin-dependent transport, and the emergence of unconventional pairing, including triplet correlations.

04

Computational & Data-Driven Physics

Exact diagonalization, MPS/DMRG, Monte Carlo methods. Machine learning approaches for phase identification and experimental data analysis.
