Constructing models for cavity quantum materials requires a careful treatment of the light-matter coupling. In general, one must specify matrix elements constructed from the material wavefunctions, which are often unknown in a tight-binding…

Boundary obstructed topological insulators are an unusual class of higher-order topological insulators with topological characteristics determined by the so-called Wannier bands. Boundary obstructed phases can harbor hinge/corner modes, but…
I review the formalism, Feynman rules, and combinatorics that constrain a field to propagate ``classically", strictly in tree diagrams, either by itself, or interacting with other, purely quantum fields. The perturbation theory is…
