Topological degeneracy is the degeneracy of the ground states in a many-body system in the large-system-size limit. Topological degeneracy cannot be lifted by any local perturbation of the Hamiltonian. The topological degeneracies on closed…
We show that certain field theory models, although non-integrable according to the usual definition of integrability, share some of the features of integrable theories for certain configurations. Here we discuss our attempt to define a…

We present a new definition of defects which is based on a Riemannian formulation of incompatible elasticity. Defects are viewed as local deviations of the material's reference metric field, $\bar{\mathfrak{g}}$, from a Euclidian metric.…
