Parafermions are emergent excitations that generalize Majorana fermions and can also realize topological order. In this paper we present a non-trivial and quasi-exactly-solvable model for a chain of parafermions in a topological phase. We…

Thermal density matrices can be described by a pure quantum state within the thermofield formalism. Here we show how to construct a class of Hamiltonians realizing a thermofield state as their ground state. These Hamiltonians are…
Topological phases of matter are usually realized in deconfined phases of gauge theories. In this context, confined phases with strongly fluctuating gauge fields seem to be irrelevant to the physics of topological phases. For example, the…
We propose how topologically non-trivial states can dynamically organize in a fermionic quantum gas which is confined to a two-dimensional optical lattice potential and coupled to the field of an optical cavity. The spontaneously emerging…

We relate the novel concept of Topological Data Analysis in Finsler space with representability property, which is a natural obstruction to prevent spurious features in high dimensions. We use decomposition of integer matrix in order to…
We illustrate the possibility of realizing band gaps in graphene-like systems that fall outside the existing classification of gapped Dirac Hamiltonians in terms of masses. As our primary example we consider a band gap arising due to…

In this work, we study the topological phases of the dimerized square lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. The dimerization pattern in the lattice's hopping amplitudes can induce a series of bulk energy gap openings in the…
We consider a quantum system in dimension three composed by a group of $N$ identical fermions, with mass 1/2, interacting via zero-range interaction with a group of $M$ identical fermions of a different type, with mass $m/2$. Exploiting a…
We construct simple models for all topological phases of free fermions. These explicit models can realize all the nontrivial topological phases (with any possible topological invariant) of the periodic table. Many well known models for…
We use holography to compute spectral functions of certain fermionic operators in three different finite-density, zero-temperature states of ABJM theory with a broken U(1) symmetry. In each of the three states, dual to previously studied…
