He earned his Ph.D. in 2023 from Perimeterinstitute for Theoretical Physics under the supervision of Chong Wang and Yin-Chen He. Heis interestedin topological phases of matter. 报告摘要 Symmetry in mixed quantum states can manifest in two distinct forms: strong symmetry where each individual pure state in the quantum ensembleis symmetric with the same charge, and weak symmetry, which applies only to the entire ensemble. l will talk about a novel type of spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) where a strong symmetry is broken to a weak one. While the SSB of a weak symmetryis measured by the long-ranged two-point correlation function Tr(o ₓ o ᵧ ⁺ p), the strong-to-weak SSB (SW-SSB) is measured by the fidelity F(p. o ₓ o ᵧ
