Topological Phases of Matter are an exceptionally dynamic field of
research: several of the most exciting recent experimental
discoveries and conceptual advances in modern physics have
originated in this field. These have generated new, topological,
notions of order, interactions and excitations. This text provides
an accessible, unified and comprehensive introduction to the
phenomena surrounding topological matter, with detailed expositions
of the underlying theoretical tools and conceptual framework,
alongside accounts of the central experimental breakthroughs. Among
the systems covered are topological insulators, magnets,
semimetals, and superconductors. The emergence of new particles
with remarkable properties such as fractional charge and statistics
is discussed alongside possible applications such as fault-tolerant
topological quantum computing. Suitable as a textbook for graduate
or advanced undergraduate students, or as a reference for more
experienced researchers, the book assumes little prior background,
providing self-contained introductions to topics as varied as phase
transitions, superconductivity, and localisation.
