Edge states reveal the nontrivial topology of energy band in the bulk. As localized states at boundaries, many-body edge states may obey a special symmetry that is broken in the bulk. When local particle-particle interaction is induced,…

A topological insulator and its spin analogue as a gapped spin liquid have characteristic low energy excitations (edge states) within the gap when the systems have boundaries. This is the bulk-edge correspondence, which implies that the…
A second-order topological insulator on a two-dimensional square lattice hosts zero-dimensional states inside a band gap. They are localized near $90^{\circ}$ and $270^{\circ}$ corners constituting an edge of the system. When the edge is in…

It is shown that in a double-cavity, two-dimensional electron waveguide, the interplay between quasi-bound states of each cavity leads to the appearance of bound states in continuum for certain distances between the cavities. These bound…
