We present the appearance of nearly flat band states with nonzero Chern numbers in a two-dimensional "diamond-octagon" lattice model comprising two kinds of elementary plaquette geometries, diamond and octagon, respectively. We show that…
Topology in photonics comes in two distinct flavors: global and local. Global topology considers invariants that are obtained by integrating over the energy band, whereas local topology considers defects, typically vortices, in the…

The presence of flat bands is a source of localization in lattice systems. While flat bands are often unstable with respect to interactions between the particles, they can persist in certain cases. We consider a diamond ladder with…
We show that a qubit transfer protocol can be realized through a flat band hosted by a disordered $XX$ spin-1/2 diamond chain. In the absence of disorder, the transmission becomes impossible due to the compact localized states forming the…
We study the general quantum Hamiltonian that can be realized with two species of mutually interacting degenerate ultracold atoms in a ring-shaped trap, with the options of rotation and an azimuthal lattice. We examine the spectrum and the…
Our general interest is in self-consistent-field (scf) theories of disordered fermions. They generate physically relevant sub-ensembles ("scf-ensembles") within a given Altland-Zirnbauer class. We are motivated to investigate such ensembles…
A class of shape-invariant bound-state problems which represent transitions in a two-level system introduced earlier are generalized to include arbitrary energy splittings between the two levels. We show that the coupled-channel…
We present a method for realizing various zero-energy localized states on disorder-free hypercube graphs. Previous works have already indicated that disorder is not essential for observing localization phenomena in noninteracting systems,…
Flat bands have band crossing points with other dispersive bands in many systems including the canonical flat band models in the Lieb and kagome lattices. Here we show that some of such band degeneracy points are unavoidable because of the…
