Chinese discovery of doughnut-like topology at tipping points breaks physics convention
🔮 The study by researchers at Singaporean and Chinese institutions was published in Nature on October 7, with Cheng Zheyu and Zhang Xiuhai, both affiliated with Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, as co-first authors. Cheng and his colleagues set out to investigate whether doughnut-like topological properties could exist at critical points – the thresholds at which physical systems change their behaviour. mixed
