The $N$-flavor interacting Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (i-SSH) model realizable in cold-atoms in an optical lattice is studied. We clarify the relationship between the i-SSH model and the Chiral-Gross-Neveu-Wilson (CGNW) model. Following the…
In most lattice models, the closing of a band gap typically occurs at high-symmetry points in the Brillouin zone. Differently, in the Creutz model $-$ describing a system of spinless fermions hopping on a two-leg ladder pierced by a…
