The PhyTop Research Group in the spotlight on the CNRS Physics website

DYSCO

The mission of the Topological Physics Research Group is to study the emergent topological and geometric properties in classical and quantum physical systems.

The PhyTop Research Group was established in 2026 and brings together 150 scientists from a wide range of research platforms. 

The GDR is led by:

Coordinator: Pierre DELPLACE (LPENSL)

Deputy Coordinators: Alberto AMO (PhLAM), Jacqueline BLOCH (C2N), Clément TAUBER (CEREMADE), Georgios THEOCHARIS (LAUM)

This GDR covers several themes: 

Topological properties of classical and quantum waves, 

Topological defects and obstructions in structures and phases,

Mathematics of topological insulators,

Non-Hermitian and non-linear systems,

Artificial gauge fields,

Manipulation of boundary and surface states.
