Quantum Condensates and Quantum Geometry

Swedish-German WE-Heraeus-Seminar

23 Mar - 26 Mar 2026

Where:

Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden

Scientific organizers:

Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Belzig, U Konstanz ∗ Prof. Dr. Annica Black‐Schaffer, Uppsala University/Sweden ∗ Prof. Dr. Matthias Eschrig, U Greifswald ∗ Prof. Dr. Mikael Fogelström, Nordita, Stockholm/Sweden

This Swedish-German WE-Heraeus binational meeting will address the research frontier created when joining the concepts of quantum geometry with unconventional superconductivity. The theory of superconductivity and superconducting quantum devices has a long tradition in northern and central Europe. Strong activities are also now present in topology and quantum geometry. However, this field is currently somewhat fragmented due to historical reasons. The idea of a bilateral Germany-Nordic seminar would be to set up a seminar program around these topics, bringing together various strands and providing a discussion forum for the latest developments in unconventional superconductivity and quantum condensates tied together with topology and quantum geometry, which would then have a lasting impact on research.
