Topological Superconductivity, Majorana Modes and Topological Quantum Computation
One of the major challenges for the future of quantum computation is the drastic reduction of the error rate associated with quantum decoherence phenomena. Robust topological qubits, as realized by Majorana states, may ultimately provide a solution and constitute a new direction of topological quantum computation. However, unambiguous identification of Majorana states requires well-defined model-type platforms.
Magnet-superconductor hybrid (MSH) systems provide the most promising platforms for realizing unconventional types of superconductivity. The Session will focus on recent exciting developments in the theoretical prediction and understanding of topological superconductivity and associated zero-energy Majorana modes as well as experimental breakthroughs based on advanced nanofabrication techniques for realizing well-defined magnet-superconductor hybrid systems. Potential applications for topological quantum computation will be discussed, taking into account recent progress regarding concepts and the design of devices based on topologically protected qubits.
Session Topics Include (but not limited to) :
• Nanofabrication of magnet-superconductor hybrid (MSH) systems
• Measurement tools for probing topological band structures
• Topological phase diagrams of MSH systems
• Emergence of Majorana zero modes in MSH systems

MgB2 – Materials and Applications
MgB2 is expected to be used in helium-free conditions at around 20K, which can easily be attained by a cryo-cooler or liquid hydrogen. The ignorable weak link in the form of grain coupling suggests that the MgB2 fabrication process is simpler than that of HTS superconductors. However, the critical current properties of MgB2 bulks, tapes, and wires still do not reach the level of practical applications due to low density, the inclusion of impurity phases, oxidation of constituent elements and so on. The purpose of the session is to understand the present status of MgB2 and to discuss the improvement of current-carrying characteristics for the wide range of applications of MgB2. Wire production using in-situ and ex-situ methods, the techniques PIT, CTFF, and IMD will also be debated in view of Jc enhancement and persistent current joints. Permanent Magnets made of bulks and their modeling and applications will be included.
Sessions Topics Include (but not limited to) :

Superconductors Under Extreme Conditions of Pressure and Strain
Superconductivity is among the most fascinating and well-studied quantum states of matter. Almost 8 years passed after discovering 200K superconductivity in the highly compressed hydrogen sulfide. There are many theoretical works for not only the explanation of superconductivity but for other candidates of superconductors at high pressure. Despite over 100 years of research, a detailed understanding of how features of the normal-state electronic structure determine superconducting properties has remained elusive. For instance, the ability to deterministically enhance the superconducting transition temperature by design, rather than by serendipity, has been a long sought-after goal in condensed matter physics and materials science, but achieving this objective may require new tools, techniques, and approaches. In this session, the recent investigation in both experimental and theoretical studies will be discussed. This session is dedicated to all kinds of superconductors in both experimental and theoretical studies to elucidate the understanding of superconductivity transition.
Session Topics Include (but not limited to) :
• Synthesis and Characterization of hydrides
• Theoretical prediction and design of high-Tc Superconductor
• Technical investigation in extreme conditions with pressure and strain for hydrides

Quantum Functional Materials and Quantum Technology
Quantum technology is a new and advanced area of physics and engineering, based on the use of some of the phenomena in quantum mechanics, such as quantum entanglement, quantum superposition, and quantum tunneling and interference effects for practical applications such as quantum computing, quantum materials, quantum sensing, quantum cryptography, high precision quantum metrology, and quantum imaging.
The progress made in condensed matter physics during the last two decades leads to discovery principally new phenomena and engineering of advanced functional materials which may play a crucial role in the developments in modern science and technology. Especially, this concerns a relatively new area, quantum technology which is based on the use of quantum phenomena in the functionalization of advanced nanoscale materials. It is commonly believed that low-dimensional quantum functional materials such as graphene, topological insulators, novel superconductors, quantum sensors, and quantum spin liquids may replace in near future traditional ones in electronic, optical and mechanical devices by increasing their energy- and resource-saving efficiency, durability, making them maximally compact, flexible and environmentally safe. Unusual properties of these materials make possible realization and practical utilization of new quantum phenomena related to underlying fundamental phenomena such as topological effects, relativistic-like behavior (in graphene and Majorana fermions), disorder and coherence effects, quantum transport, etc. Fabrication of new materials and devices requires the study of such effects and tuning of the physical properties of these materials.

Ilya Eremin
Ilya Eremin is a Professor at Ruhr-University Bochum.His research interests lie in the field of condensed matter, with a focus on the theoretical study of quantum many-body systems. He is particularly interested in the study of strongly correlated, low-dimensional electronic and magnetic systems, as well as unconventional and high-temperature superconductivity. The peculiarity of these systems is that the electron-electron correlations here are enhanced by the effect of reduced dimensionality and competition of spin, charge and orbital degrees of freedom. In addition, it must be taken into account that the ground state in these systems changes drastically as a function of only a single parameter.
Furthermore, He deals with systems that have geometric frustration in addition to low dimensionality and strong electronic correlations.

Quantum Error Mitigation
Current quantum hardware for information processing is prone to errors, limiting the complexity of computations that can be performed. Traditional error mitigation techniques have involved encoding the logical quantum information content of a single qubit in an array of physical qubits— the surface code and the toric code being examples of qubits on a square grid or more complex graph in the case of the latter. More recently, designs have been proposed requiring a smaller number of physical qubits, and architectures which are hardware efficient and protect against only the most prevalent of errors. Additionally, noise suppression techniques have been developed where the processing capacity of quantum hardware can be enhanced by tailoring one type of noise into another. This session explores the different modalities of quantum error mitigation currently being developed and highlights open challenges in the field.

Magnetism, Lattice Dynamics and Superconductivity
Magnetism and lattice dynamics are of importance with regard to superconductivity. Whereas magnetism seems to be an “enemy”, phonons rather act as mediator. According to The role of magnetism in the lattice dynamics is routinely regarded as negligible what follows from calculations of the standard theory of the electron-phonon interaction (EPI). However, Kim showed that the impact of the EPI on the spin susceptibility of metals can be enhanced by two orders of magnitude in itinerant magnets [1]. Based either on calculations and/or on measurements several authors recently reported results that do not agree with the standard theory. In particular, M. S. Lucas et al. wrote [2]: Changes in the PDOS of bcc-FeV were revealed at crossing the Curie temperature”, B. Alling et al. concluded that [3]: “Lattice vibrations strongly affect the distribution of local magnetic moment in paramagnetic Fe viz. they weaken their mean values”, and I. S. Tupitsyn et al. noticed that [4]: “The standard theory neglects the effect of magnetism on lattice dynamics and fails to explain enhancement of the critical temperature in phonon-mediated superconductors.”
