Thouless pumping, the quantized transport of particles in a cyclic adiabatic evolution, faces a challenge: slow driving may exceed the coherent time, while fast driving may break quantization. To address this dilemma, we propose to speed up…
Topological phases supported by quasi-periodic spin-chain models and their bulk-boundary principles are investigated by numerical and K-theoretic methods. We show that, for both the un-correlated and correlated phases, the operator algebras…
Quantized Thouless pumps in periodic systems, set by Chern numbers or Wannier-center winding, is by now fairly well established, whereas its quasi-periodic extensions still require further clarification. Here, we develop a general…
Kinetic ballooning modes (KBM) are widely believed to play a critical role in disruptive dynamics as well as turbulent transport in tokamaks. While the nonlinear evolution of ballooning modes has been proposed as a mechanism for detonation…
A $1$-parameter family of invertible states gives a topological transport phenomenon, similar to the Thouless pumping. As a natural generalization of this, we can consider a family of invertible states parametrized by some topological space…
