OVERVIEW

This Advanced Study Group will focus on new fundamental properties of light in their most exotic topologically nontrivial form. Such an entirely new electromagnetic platform of photonic topological insulators lays down a solid background for further technological advances, e.g., by revealing the mechanism for networks of robust optical waveguides and various photonic elements and devices robust to disorder.
