Research activities

I am a condensed-matter theorist using computational techniques to study the properties of materials from first-principles. My work often involves the development of new theoretical approaches and algorithms, and their application to problems of current interest.  I have introduced methods to study insulators in finite electric field, and to construct localized Wannier orbitals for metals. In recent times I have used them to investigate
the anomalous Hall conductivity and orbital magnetization of ferromagnets, as well as magnetoelectric couplings in topological insulators and related materials.
