I am a theorist interested in the geometrical/topological properties of condensed matter systems. In the past I’ve focused on the so-called Dirac matter: The set of systems described in the low energy regime by the Dirac equation in their several incarnations, paying special attention in the last years on how disorder and interactions modify the single-particle approximation coming from the Dirac picture.

Some recent examples of the thinks I do are a work on the possibility of hydrodynamic regime in Weyl semimetals and the possibility  of a hysterectic behaviour in the axionic CDW phase transition of Weyls under magnetic fields.

Other topics I’m working on are disordered altermagnets and exactly solvable models of strong correlations.
