DESCRIPTION:Topological phases are remarkable because of their propagating surface\nstates resistant to disorder and their universally quantised responses to\nelectromagnetic fields. Topological phenomena are by now ubiquitously\nobserved in crystals, both in solids and synthetic systems. In contrast,\ntopology in non-crystalline matter, such as amorphous or\nquasicrystalline materials, is much harder to predict, diagnose and\ndiscover. This is because crystalline periodicity is central to how we\nunderstand topological materials, although it is not necessary to define\ntopological phases. In this talk I will present recent theoretical progress\nand experimental signatures of amorphous topological matter. I will\ndiscuss tools to predict them, and their potential to host novel and\ncontrollable topological phenomena both in amorphous metals and\ninsulators.
