Description
The quest for novel states of matter is important both on fundamental grounds and in view of possible applications, with superconductivity and the various quantum Hall effects being outstanding examples. This talk will summarize recent developments in the field, with an emphasis on the effects on frustration and intrinsic topological order. I will highlight frustration-based routes to novel forms of order and disorder, non-Fermi liquid metals and exotic superconductivity, and I will discuss aspects on quantum phase transitions between the various phases. Connections to experiments on kagome and pyrochlore metals as well as cuprate high-temperature superconductors will be made.
