The branch of mathematics known as topology has become a cornerstone of modern physics thanks to the remarkable -- and above all reliable -- properties it can impart to a material or system.

Topological materials are a class of materials that exhibit unique electronic properties at their boundary (surface in 3D materials; edge in 2D materials) that are robust against imperfections or ...

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern physics, the concept of topological textures has emerged as a powerful tool for revolutionizing information technologies. Traditionally confined to ...
