We begin with an introduction to topological order using Wegner's quantum $Z_2$ gauge theory on the square lattice: the topological state is characterized by the expulsion of defects, carrying $Z_2$ magnetic flux. The interplay between…
We show that a large class of two-dimensional spinless fermion models exhibit topological superconducting phases characterized by a non-zero Chern number. More specifically, we consider a generic one-band Hamiltonian of spinless fermions…
We provide a manifestly topological classification scheme for generalised Weyl semimetals, in any spatial dimension and with arbitrary Weyl surfaces which may be non-trivially linked. The classification naturally incorporates that of Chern…

In topological semimetals and nodal superconductors, band crossings between occupied and unoccupied bands form stable nodal points/lines/surfaces carrying quantized topological charges. In particular, in centrosymmetric systems, some nodal…

Theoretical prediction of topological superconductivity is key to their discovery. Recently, it is proved that in 199 out of 230 space groups, topological superconductivity coexists with an $s$-wave-like pairing symmetry, raising the hope…
Exceptional points are universal level degeneracies induced by non-Hermiticity. Whereas past decades witnessed their new physics, the unified understanding has yet to be obtained. Here we present the complete classification of generic…
The classification of topological states of matter in terms of unitary symmetries and dimensionality predicts the existence of nontrivial topological states even in zero-dimensional systems, i.e., a system with a discrete energy spectrum.…
Topological semimetals are gapless states of matter which have robust and unique electromagnetic responses and surface states. In this paper, we consider semimetals which have point like Fermi surfaces in various spatial dimensions…
We show that sharply defined topological quantum phase transitions are not limited to states of matter with gapped electronic spectra. Such transitions may also occur between two gapless metallic states both with extended Fermi surfaces.…
In this letter, we investigate topological phases of full-gapped odd-parity superconductors, which are distinguished by the bulk topological invariants and the topologically protected gapless boundary states. Using the particle-hole…
Topological Quantum Chemistry and Symmetry-Based Indicators have facilitated large-scale searches for materials with topological properties at the Fermi energy ($E_{F}$). We report the completion of a publicly accessible catalog of stable…
We report angle-resolved photoemission experiments resolving the distinct electronic structure of the inequivalent top and bottom (001) surfaces of WTe2. On both surfaces, we identify a surface state that forms a large Fermi-arc emerging…

Fermi arcs represent the surface states at the boundary of a three-dimensional topological semimetal with the vacuum, illustrating the notion of bulk-boundary correspondence playing out in real materials. Their special character is tied up…
We propose a class of topological superconductivity in which the pairing order is $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topologically obstructed in a three-dimensional time-reversal invariant system. When two Fermi surfaces are related by time-reversal and mirror…
