Other Condensed Matter 2017-03-08 v6

Abstract

Different types of Lifshitz transitions are governed by topology in momentum space. They involve the topological transitions with the change of topology of Fermi surfaces, Weyl and Dirac points, nodal ines, and also the transitions between the fully gapped states.
