Symmetry-Protected Topological relationship between $SU(3)$ and $SU(2)\times{U(1)}$ in Two Dimension
Abstract
Symmetry-protected topological phases are gapped short-range entangled states with symmetry , which can be systematically described by group cohomology theory. and are considered as the basic groups of Quantum Chromodynamics and Weak-Electromagnetic unification, respectively. In two dimension , nonlinear-sigma models with a quantized topological Theta term can be used to describe nontrivial SPT phases. By coupling the system to a probe field and integrating out the group variables, the Theta term becomes the effective action of Chern-Simons theory which can derive the response current density. As a result, the current shows a spin Hall effect, and the quantized number of the spin Hall conductance of SPT phases and are same. In addition, relationships between and which maps to with a rotation will be given.
