When two topologically trivial and nontrivial systems are brought together, a localized energy state is formed at the interface. For crystalline quantum and classical systems, their topology can be determined by studying the eigenmode…
We present a method for computing first order asymptotics of semiclassical spectra for 1-D Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) Hamiltonian from Supraconductivity, which models the electron/hole scattering through two SNS junctions. This involves: 1)…
In the AdS/CFT correspondence one encounters theories that are not invariant under diffeomorphisms. In the boundary theory this is a gravitational anomaly, and can arise in 4k+2 dimensions. In the bulk, there can be gravitational…
The same bulk two-dimensional topological phase can have multiple distinct, fully-chiral edge phases. We show that this can occur in the integer quantum Hall states at $\nu=8$ and 12, with experimentally-testable consequences. We show that…
We demonstrate that a non self-adjoint Hamiltonian of harmonic oscillator type defined on a two-dimensional noncommutative space can be diagonalized exactly by making use of pseudo-bosonic operators. The model admits an antilinear symmetry…

Properties of eigenstates of one-particle Quantum Hall Hamiltonians localized near the boundary of a two-dimensional electron gas - so-called edge states - are studied. For finite samples it is shown that edge states with energy in an…
Mobility edges commonly arise in one-dimensional quasiperiodic systems once exact self-duality is broken, yet their origin is typically understood only at the level of individual Hamiltonians. Here we show that mobility edge positions are…

We provide an elementary proof and refinement of a well-known idea from physics: a chiral-symmetric local Hamiltonian on a half-space has the same signed number of edge-localized states with energies in the bulk band gap, as its bulk…

Linearity of the topological insulator edge state spectrum plays the crucial role for various transport phenomena. The previous studies found that this linearity exists near the spectrum crossing point, but did not determine how perfect the…
We develop the topological band theory for systems described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, whose energy spectra are generally complex. After generalizing the notion of gapped band structures to the non-Hermitian case, we classify "gapped"…
The symmetry-constrained topological invariant fails to explain the emergence of the special edge modes when system does not preserve discrete symmetries. The inversion or chiral symmetry broken SSH model is an example of one such system…
