In topological physics, it is commonly understood that the existence of the boundary states of a topological system is inherently dictated by its bulk. A classic example is that the surface Fermi arc states of a Weyl system are determined…
Recently, it has been proposed that exotic one-dimensional phases can be realized by gapping out the edge states of a fractional topological insulator. The low-energy edge degrees of freedom are described by a chain of coupled parafermions.…
We consider the analogy between the topological phase transition which occurs as a function of spatial coordinate on a surface of a non-trivial insulator, and the one which occurs in the bulk due to the change of internal parameters (such…
Starting from a minimal model for a 2D nodal loop semimetal, we study the effect of chiral mass gap terms. The resulting Dirac loop anomalous Hall insulator's Chern number is the phase winding number of the mass gap terms on the loop. We…

Topological insulators and their intriguing edge states can be understood in a single-particle picture and can as such be exhaustively classified. Interactions significantly complicate this picture and can lead to entirely new insulating…
We analyze the non-Hermitian Haldane model where the spin-orbit interaction is made non-Hermitian. The Dirac mass becomes complex. We propose to realize it by an $LC$ circuit with operational amplifiers. A topological phase transition is…
We prove that invisible bands associated with zeros of the single-particle Green's function exist ubiquitously at topological interfaces of 2D Chern insulators, dual to the chiral edge/domain-wall modes. We verify this statement in a…
We construct and classify chiral topological phases in driven (Floquet) systems of strongly interacting bosons, with finite-dimensional site Hilbert spaces, in two spatial dimensions. The construction proceeds by introducing exactly soluble…

Topological phases of matter are described universally by topological field theories in the same way that symmetry-breaking phases of matter are described by Landau-Ginzburg field theories. We propose that topological insulators in two and…
