Content | Recently, there has been growing interest in novel quantum effects on in low-dimensional mesoscopic/condensed matter systems. In particular, layered materials with strong spin-orbit couplings show non-trivial topological surface (or edge) states with Dirac-dispersed excitations, known as topological insulators. Investigating and searching for new topological insulators as well as the exotic charge-neutral Majorana fermions predicted in topological superconductors has caught much attention lately. Meanwhile, it is well known that low dimensional quantum systems show very peculiar properties. Due to huge quantum fluctuations, these quantum systems are strongly influenced by electron correlations, disorder and collective excitations. In this summer school/workshop, we bring domestic and international experts on theory and experiments together to discuss recent progress in the above topics. The goals are to encourage collaborations among the experts, and to introduce this exciting new research field to students and young researchers.
