We investigate charge pumping in the vicinity of order-obstructed topological phases, i.e. symmetry protected topological phases masked by spontaneous symmetry breaking in the presence of strong correlations. To explore this, we study a…

Topological phases and topological phase transitions (TPT) are among the most fantastic phenomena in Nature. Here we show that injecting a current may lead to new topological phases, especially new gapless topological metallic phases with…

Semiconducting nanowires with strong spin-orbit coupling in the presence of induced superconductivity and ferromagnetism can support Majorana zero modes. We study the pumping due to the precession of the magnetization in single-subband…

Inside a three-dimensional strong topological insulator, a tube with $h/2e$ magnetic flux carries a pair of protected one-dimensional linear fermionic modes. This phenomenon is known as the "wormhole effect". In this work, we find that the…
We introduce a model for a flux-assisted Cooper-pair pump, the sluice, which is used to study geometric charge transport. Our model allows for a nonvanishing loop inductance going beyond the usual treatment with an exact phase bias. We…
When a two-dimensional electron gas is exposed to a perpendicular magnetic field and an in-plane electric field, its conductance becomes quantized in the transverse in-plane direction: this is known as the quantum Hall (QH) effect. This…
We find that in a multi-orbital system with intraorbital and interorbital hopping integrals, the Hall conductance exhibits various topological quantum phase transitions (QPTs) induced by on-site orbital polarization: integer quantum Hall…
The large majority of topological phases in one dimensional many-body systems are known to inherit from the corresponding single-particle Hamiltonian. In this work, we go beyond this assumption and find a new example of topological order…

One of the hallmarks of topological insulators is the correspondence between the value of its bulk topological invariant and the number of topologically protected edge modes observed in a finite-sized sample. This bulk-boundary…
We investigated the topological pumping charge of a dimerized Kitaev chain with spatially modulated chemical potential, which hosts nodal loops in parameter space and violates particle number conservation. In the simplest case, with…
We investigate a second-order topological quantum transition of a modified Kane-Mele model driven by electron-phonon interaction. The results show that the system parameters of the bare modified Kane-Mele model are renormalized by the…
