Topologically-ordered phases of matter, although stable against local perturbations, are usually restricted to relatively small regions in phase diagrams. Their preparation requires thus a precise fine tunning of the system's parameters, a…

Features of a topological phase, and edge states in particular, may be obscured by overlapping in energy with a trivial conduction band. The topological nature of such a conductor, however, is revealed in its transport properties,…
We study the deformation of a Fermi surface (FS) near charge-ordering (CO) transition. By applying a fluctuation-exchange approximation to the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model, we show that the FS is largely modified by strong charge…
