The smallest scale microscopic matter can also exhibit topological macroscopic properties

What if electricity could travel forever without being diminished?What if a computer could run exponentially faster with perfect accuracy?What technology could those abilities build?We may be able to find out thanks to the work of the three scientists who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2016.David Thouless,Duncan Haldane,and Michael Kosterlitz won the award for discovering that even microscopic matter at the smallest scale can exhibit macroscopic propertiesn and phases that are topological.
