We introduce a novel gauge-invariant, quantized interband index in two-dimensional (2D) multiband systems. It provides a bulk topological classification of a submanifold of parameter space (e.g., an electron valley in a Brillouin zone), and…
We study the adiabatic topological charge pumping driven by interlayer sliding in the moir\'{e} superlattices. We show that, when we slide a single layer of the twisted bilayer system relatively to the other, a moir\'{e} pattern flow and a…

Quantized adiabatic transport can occur when a system is slowly modulated over time. In most realizations however, the efficiency of such transport is reduced by unwanted dissipation, back-scattering, and non-adiabatic effects. In this…
