Lu Zhang is a doctoral student in Physics at HKUST, currently conducting research under the supervision of Professor Xue-Yang Song. His work explores strongly correlated systems, with particular focus on the Hofstadter–Hubbard model and fractional Chern insulators. Zhang’s group has identified a non-Abelian phase by introducing a three-body pseudo-potential within a Chern band system. In more recent efforts, they proposed a mechanism to realise an anyon superconductor by doping the SU(4) chiral spin liquid. His approach integrates both numerical and analytical techniques to deepen understanding of the underlying physics. Zhang values opportunities to collaborate across diverse disciplines and is eager to share his ongoing research with the wider physics community.
