These lecture notes give a brief introduction to heavy fermion physics, emphasizing aspects of particular modern interest. Following an introduction to the Kondo effect and the phenomenology of heavy fermions, the article introduces Kondo insulators, the simplest heavy fermions; the large N expansion for the Kondo lattice; heavy fermion superconductivity including the symplectic N approach; topological Kondo insulators and finally a discussion of the challenge of understanding the co-existence of magnetism and the Kondo effect.

  1. Quantum Decoherence of the Surface Code: A Generalized Caldeira-Leggett Approach

    quant-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Surface code logical qubits in continuous baths have a true thermodynamic error threshold only for short-range interactions, as their decoherence maps exactly to the anisotropic Kondo model.

    In CsCr6Sb6, Mott splitting of the kagome flat band creates local moments that hybridize with conduction electrons at low temperature, shown by temperature-dependent STS Fano lineshapes near EF and ARPES quasiparticle...
