  Making full use of various―both analytical and numerical―quantum statistical methods, we explore novel quantum cooperative phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems. A recent keyword is "topology". Interpretation of phenomena must be our ultimate goal, but we often take further interest in the mathematical and methodological ways we can accomplish this. We construct microscopic theories on a variety of physics such as quantum spin liquid, photoinduced magnetism, nuclear magnetic resonance, inelastic neutron scattering, Raman scattering, optical conductivity, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We sometimes enjoy theoretical formulation in itself and sometimes interpret observations in cooperation with experimentalists and chemist.

  We develop new materials in strongly correlated electron systems by various chemical methods including high pressure synthesis, and elucidate their properties by both bulk physical properties measurements (electrical resistivity, magnetization, specific heat measurements, and precise measurements in ultra-high magnetic fields, etc) and microscopic measurements (μSR, neutron and synchrotron X-ray scattering, etc). Specifically, we develop frustrated magnetic materials, multipole materials, skyrmion materials, novel actinide compounds and also search for quantum many-body states in high magnetic fields, cross- correlational phenomena, and new superconducting states and odd-parity multipoles.

  We study the interaction of light with matter, mainly by spectroscopic measurements using laser light. Target systems include organic materials, metals, and semiconductors. In the case of molecular luminescence in solution, we deal with energy relaxation of a few milliseconds due to liquid dynamics; in the case of excited-state relaxation in semiconductors, we measure relaxation in microseconds to nanoseconds; and in the case of phonon spectroscopy in solids, we study relaxation phenomena on time scales of picoseconds or less. We also synthesize nanocrystals of a few nanometers in size by chemical synthesis methods and study various phenomena caused by quantum effects in the electron system confined in very small nanocrystals.
