It is known that a two-dimensional spin system can acquire a topological Hopf term by coupling to massless Dirac fermions whose energy spectrum has a single cone. But it is challenging to realize the Hopf term in condensed matter physics…
The Hopf term in the $2 + 1$ dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model, which is known to be responsible for fractional spin and statistics, is re-examined from the viewpoint of quantization ambiguity. It is confirmed that the Hopf term can be…
Hopf terms are topological theta terms that are associated with a host of interesting physics, including anyons, statistical transmutation, chiral edge states, and the spin quantum Hall effect. Here, we show that Hopf terms can appear in…
We derive an effective action for Dirac fermions coupled to O(3) non-linear sigma-model (NLSM) through the Yukawa-type interaction. The nonperturbative (global) quantum anomaly of this model results in a Hopf term for the effective NLSM. We…
We couple the Hopf term to the relativistic $CP^1$ model and carry out the Hamiltonian analysis at the classical level. The symplectic structure of the model given by the set of Dirac Brackets among the phase space variables is found to be…

A dynamical Hopf insulator is experimentally synthesized with a quenched two-dimensional quantum anomalous Hall system on a square Raman lattice. The quench dynamics for the quasimomentum-time-dependent Bloch vectors defines a Hopf map from…
Knots and links play a crucial role in understanding topology and discreteness in nature. In magnetic systems, twisted, knotted and braided vortex tubes manifest as Skyrmions, Hopfions, or screw dislocations. These complex textures are…
We classify all finite-dimensional Hopf algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero such that its coradical is isomorphic to the algebra of functions over a dihedral group D_m, with m=4a> 11. We obtain this…
The concept of topological fermions, including Weyl and Dirac fermions, stems from the quantum Hall state induced by a magnetic field, but the definitions and classifications of topological fermions are formulated without using magnetic…
Topological terms in the O(3) nonlinear sigma model in (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions are re-examined based on the description of the SU(2)-valued field $g$. We first show that the topological soliton term in (1+1) dimensions arises from the…
We first review our previous work arxiv:1503.02993 [math-ph] where we considered a model for topological recursion based on the Hopf Algebra of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and showed that extending this Hopf Algebra by…
