Emergent Matter
The many-body problem — theory, experiment, and computation, woven together.
A home for the many-body problem — classical and quantum, condensed or not. Every topic is a single page that braids three lenses — theory, experimental probes, and computation — into one rigorous treatment. Browse by subject, or follow a method track across the whole site.

We ask why before we calculate — physics, geometry, symmetry, and method first, notation second. A collaborative, concepts-first atlas of the many-body problem, written so you can open any book and follow it, and judged together as it grows.

Mott Physics in Correlated Lattices
From the cuprate puzzle through the Hubbard model's weak- and strong-coupling limits to a full Dynamical Mean-Field Theory study of the Mott metal–insulator transition and its comparison with V₂O₃ — a complete master's thesis, rendered as 6 browsable topics with every derivation, figure, and result.
Method tracks
The same topics, viewed through one lens — derived automatically from each topic's facets.
- Theory Models, symmetries, and analytic structure — Hamiltonians, Green's functions, and the methods that solve them.
- Experiment The observable side: what ARPES, STM, optics, and scattering measure — and the theory quantities they map onto.
- Computation Numerics and reproducible workflows — exact diagonalization, QMC, tensor networks, DMFT and cluster solvers — with notebooks and live plots.

Beyond subjects and method-tracks — the same body of work, sliced other ways.
- Methods The toolkit — by technique: DMFT, tensor networks, diagrammatics, mean field, and the rest.
- Concepts The big ideas — follow emergence, broken symmetry, or localization across subjects.
- Atlas A map of the landscape — how subjects, methods, and concepts connect.
- Levels Read at your depth — undergraduate, graduate, or research.
