Zhenghan Wang, Microsoft State Q, Title of Talk: Quantum computing with topological materials

Abstract: One unique daunting approach to quantum computing is topological quantum computing.

This topological platform requires new materials to be engineered for ideal model Hamiltonions spawned from the most abstract reach of mathematics.
I will introduce this approach as pursued by Microsoft Station Q to a general audience.
