I am Lukas Palm, 5th year PhD student at the University of Chicago, currently at Stanford University. I am interested in realizing Anyons, Laughlin states and other topological states of the fractional quantum Hall effect, and broadly using novel cavity geometries and ideas for analog and digital quantum simulation.
