297:) and has later applied them to important problems in condensed matter. Some of his other important works in recent times that have not already been mentioned above include a graph-theoretic lattice discretization scheme for Chern-Simons theories and its applications to condensed matter problems, and novel field theoretic approaches to describe fractional 244:
and others), quantum Hall edge physics and, more recently, theories for describing nematicity and geometry in the fractional quantum Hall regime. One of his most influential works has been the introduction and elucidation of the powerful new paradigm in

He is considered one of the earliest proponents of, and one of the leading figures in, using quantum field theoretical concepts and methods in condensed matter physics, and is well known for popularizing such approaches through his early book 265:, and, more recently in this area, elucidation of the notion and significance of "intertwined orders" in the context of cuprate high-temperature superconductors and more generally in strongly correlated systems (with 556: 561: 197:
