The 2026 edition of the Topological Matter School marks a double celebration: ten years since the Nobel Prize in Physics recognizing the impact of topology, and the tenth anniversary of the school itself. Founded in 2016, the school has become one of the leading international forums dedicated to teaching and advancing topology in condensed matter physics.

This special anniversary edition will reflect on a decade of remarkable progress, with a program of pedagogical lectures reviewing how the field has evolved and where it is heading. We are deeply honored that Prof. Duncan Haldane, Nobel Laureate in Physics 2016, will deliver the opening lecture, setting the tone for a week of reflection and forward-looking discussion on the future of topological quantum matter.
