Research Interests: (1) Theory for strongly correlated electron system , including superconducting theory of cuprates, low-dimensional strongly correlated quantum system, quantum Hall effect, etc;
(2) The properties and superconducting mechanism of the iron-based superconductors;

Research Experience 1. Jiangping Hu put forward the density matrix renormalization group method in momentum space, transfer matrix renormalization group method, density matrix renormalization group method for time-dependent dynamic problems; 2. Proposed the micro mechanism of abnormal interlayer dynamics in high-Tc superconductors, found and predicted the universal law for c-axis resistivity, magnetic penetration depth, macrowave conductivity of high-Tc superconductors; 3. Proposed the two-band model for electron-doped high-Tc superconductors; 4. Proposed the optimal Majorana fermion representation of Kitaev model and also proved that the quantum phase transition in the model can be described by the topological string order parameter.
Selected Recent Publications: 1. Generalized the quantum Hall effect to four dimensions, which opens up a new interdisciplinary field of condensed matter physics and high energy physics and establish the theoretical basis for quantum spin hall effect and topological insulators.
2. Systematic studies on application of SO(5) theory on cuprates, which gets extensive attention.
3. First explained the correlation of magnetic transition with the structure in iron-based superconductors. And also predicted its pairing symmetry in superconducting states with t-J model, which establish the basis for superconducting theory of iron-based superconductors.
4. Proposed an original multiferroic theory.
5. Also made several achievements on models for strongly correlated electron system, models for high symmetrical cold atom system, spintronics and strongly spin-orbital coupling systems. Jiangping Hu has published more than 60 research papers, including one on Science, one on Nature, 15 on Physics Review Letter. The total citation times by others is more than 1500, including one cited more than 150 times and 11 papers more than 50 times. The H-index is 21.
