Asle Sudbø

Asle Sudbø is a **Professor** and **Center Director** at the **SFF QuSpin** within the **Department of Physics** at **Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)**. He holds a PhD from Brown University (1990). His research focuses on condensed matter physics, particularly quantum regimes involving superconductivity, topological matter, quantum criticality, and ultracold systems. His group explores phenomena like topological superconductivity, magnon-mediated superconductivity, and quantum phase transitions in novel materials such as graphene and topological insulators.

**Research Interests**:

• Quantum transport of spin/charge in low-dimensional systems
• Unconventional superconductors and superfluids
• Topological excitations in multi-component condensates
• Many-body effects in magnets and superconductors
• Monte Carlo simulations of condensed matter models

**Recent Themes**: His 2023-2025 publications emphasize topological superconductivity mediated by skyrmionic magnons, quantum criticality in magnetic bilayers, and exceeding superconductivity limits in flat-band systems. Research bridges theory and materials science, with applications in topological insulators and twisted bilayer graphene.

**Students**: Supervises Kristian Mæland, Christian Svingen Johnsen, and Sondre Duna Lundemo. Active in doctoral supervision and interdisciplinary collaborations.

**Affiliations**: Director of SFF QuSpin, NTNU’s Condensed Matter Theory group leader. Involved in large-scale computational studies of quantum critical phenomena and topological systems.
