Within this context we found novel Euler effects in quenched systems and topological characterizations of optical Wannier states and novel interplays between magnetism and topology. The project received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 842901. Education: - 10/2011-01/2016 Ph.
