We investigate the chiral edge states in the two-dimensional ferromagntic kagom\'{e} lattice with spin anisotropies included. The system is periodic in the $x$ direction but has two edges in the $y$ direction. The Harper equation for…

We study the spin edge states in the quantum spin-Hall (QSH) effect on a single-atomic layer graphene ribbon system with both intrinsic and Rashba spin-orbit couplings. The Harper equation for solving the energies of the spin edge states is…

The Hofstadter model is a simple yet powerful Hamiltonian to study quantum Hall physics in a lattice system, manifesting its essential topological states. Lattice dimerization in the Hofstadter model opens an energy gap at half filling.…

Edge states play a major role in the electron dynamics of topological insulators as they are the only conducting part in such materials. In this work, we consider the Haldane model for a 2D topological insulator, subjected to an intense…

We investigate the edge state of a two-dimensional topological insulator based on the Kane-Mele model. Using complex wave numbers of the Bloch wave function, we derive an analytical expression for the edge state localized near the edge of a…

The experimental realization of twisted bilayer graphene strongly pushed the inspection of bilayer systems. In this context, it was recently shown that a two layer Haldane model with a thirty degree rotation angle between the layers…

In this study, the Haldane model's edge states are utilized to illustrate that a zero-energy localized state forms around a single vacancy in the model. In order to complete this task, the conventional unit cell associated to the Haldane…

We use the bulk Hamiltonian for a three-dimensional topological insulator such as $\rm Bi_2 Se_3$ to study the states which appear on its various surfaces and along the edge between two surfaces. We use both analytical methods based on the…

The quantum-Hall-effect (QHE) occurs in topologically-ordered states of two-dimensional (2d) electron-systems in which an insulating bulk-state coexists with protected 1d conducting edge-states. Owing to a unique topologically imposed…

The unusual electronic properties of the quantum spin Hall or Chern insulator become manifest in the form of robust edge states when samples with boundaries are studied. In this work, we ask if and how the topologically non-trivial…

We study anisotropic lattice strips in the presence of a magnetic field in the quantum Hall effect regime. At specific magnetic fields, causing resonant Umklapp scattering, the system is gapped in the bulk and supports chiral edge states in…

Studying the edge states of a topological system and extracting their topological properties is of great importance in understanding and characterizing these systems. In this paper, we present a novel analytical approach for obtaining…

The chiral edge states and the quantized Hall conductance (QHC) in the two-dimensional kagom\'{e} lattice with spin anisotropies included in a general Hund's coupling region are studied. This kagom\'{e} lattice system is periodic in the $x$…

Two-dimensional higher-order topology is usually studied in (nearly) particle-hole symmetric models, so that an edge gap can be opened within the bulk one. But more often deviates the edge anticrossing even into the bulk, where corner…

In the anomalous quantum Hall effect (QHE), a hallmark of graphene, nature of the edge states in magnetic fields poses an important question, since the edge and bulk should be intimately related in QHE. Here we have theoretically studied…

The understanding of the Chern insulator and anomalous quantum Hall effect (AQHE) in terms of chiral edge states in confined systems is the first aim of the paper. The model we use consists in a diatomic square lattice with hopping to the…

For 2D topological insulators with strong electron-hole hybridization, such as HgTe/CdTe quantum wells, the widely used 4 x 4 k.p Hamiltonian based on the first electron and heavy hole sub-bands yields an equal number of physical and…

We study the topological properties of the two-body bound states in an interacting Haldane model as a function of interparticle interactions. In particular, we identify topological phases where the two-body edge states have either the same…

We study edges states of graphene ribbons in the quantized Hall regime, and show that they can be described within a continuum model (the Dirac equation) when appropriate boundary conditions are adopted. The two simplest terminations,…

We present an exact analytical investigation of the topological properties and edge states of the Haldane model defined on a honeycomb lattice with zigzag edges. By exploiting translational symmetry along the ribbon direction, we perform a…
