This workshop is intended to deepen our understanding on novel phenomena that has been seen in many correlated electrons and its possible relation to topology of electronic structure and/or spin texture. Experts from the field will give us both pedagogical and advanced talks on topical subjects covering iridates, heavy fermions, Bismuth, Axion or Weyl anomaly in metals. It would be also nice if we could enhance our collaborative study among participants. For the latter perspective, the workshop will be supported by both ISSP workshop series, and our JSPS project for Strategic International Networks Project on Topological Phenomena in Novel Quantum Materials.

The workshop consists of two parts. The morning session will be a pedagogical lecture for non-experts on “Novel correlated topological phases in correlated materials.” by Prof. Leon Balents (UCSB). The afternoon session 26 will take the form of a series of invited talks intended for experts.
