In this paper we systematically study a simple class of translation-symmetry protected topological orders in quantum spin systems using slave-particle approach. The spin systems on square lattice are translation invariant, but may break any…
We systematically study topological phases of insulators and superconductors (SCs) in 3D. We find that there exist 3D topologically non-trivial insulators or SCs in 5 out of 10 symmetry classes introduced by Altland and Zirnbauer within the…
It has recently been shown that in every spatial dimension there exist precisely five distinct classes of topological insulators or superconductors. Within a given class, the different topological sectors can be distinguished, depending on…
The recent discovery of heavy-fermion superconductor UTe$_2$ has broadened the possibility of realizing exotic time-reversal-symmetry-breaking superconductivity. However, a comprehensive understanding of the topological phases in the…
The topological invariants of gapped time reversal invariant lattice superconductors are studied by mapping the superconducting mean field Hamiltonian to a Bloch Hamiltonian. There is a single $Z_2 $ invariant in two dimensions and four…
We present a group theoretical analysis of the superconducting state of the Bechgaard salts, e.g., (TMTSF)_2PF_6 or (TMTSF)_2ClO_6. We show that there are eight symmetry distinct superconducting states. Of these only the (fully gapped, even…
We study $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topologically ordered states enriched by translational symmetry by employing a recently developed 2D bosonization approach that implements an exact $\mathbb{Z}_2$ charge-flux attachment in the lattice. Such states…
Recently the superconductor and topological semimetal PbTaSe$_2$ was experimentally found to exhibit surface-only lattice rotational symmetry breaking below $T_c$. We exploit the Ginzburg-Landau free energy and propose a microscopic…
In this letter, we investigate topological phases of full-gapped odd-parity superconductors, which are distinguished by the bulk topological invariants and the topologically protected gapless boundary states. Using the particle-hole…
An exhaustive classification scheme of topological insulators and superconductors is presented. The key property of topological insulators (superconductors) is the appearance of gapless degrees of freedom at the interface/boundary between a…
We study the effect of interactions on 2D fermionic symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases using the recently proposed braiding statistics approach. We focus on a simple class of examples: superconductors with a Z2 Ising symmetry.…
Topological superconductors are exotic phases of matter featuring robust surface states that could be leveraged for topological quantum computation. A useful guiding principle for the search of topological superconductors is to relate the…
Class D topological superconductors in $2+1$ dimensions are known to have a $\mathbb{Z}_{16}$ classification in the presence of interactions, with $16$ different topological orders underlying the $16$ distinct phases. By applying the…
The interplay between symmetry and topology in electronic band structures has been one of the central subjects in condensed-matter physics. Recently, it has been getting clear that a wide variety of useful information about the band…
Topological classification in our previous paper [K. Shiozaki and M. Sato, Phys. Rev. B ${\bf 90}$, 165114 (2014)] is extended to nonsymmorphic crystalline insulators and superconductors. Using the twisted equivariant $K$-theory, we…
The classification of topological states of matter depends on spatial dimension and symmetry class. For non-interacting topological insulators and superconductors the topological classification is obtained systematically and nontrivial…
Based on a recently developed framework, we conduct classifications of time-reversal symmetric topological superconductors with conventional pairing symmetries. Our real-space approach clarifies the nature of boundary modes in nontrivial…
We present a detailed study of the gap symmetry and the quasiparticle wave function topology in two-dimensional superconductors without inversion center. The strong spin-orbit coupling of electrons with the crystal lattice makes it…
The pairing symmetry of superconducting states is a critical topic in the realm of topological superconductivity. However, the pairing symmetry of the $A\mathrm{V_3Sb_5}$ family, wherein $A=\mathrm{K,Rb,Cs}$, remains indeterminate. To…
We study transitions between phases of matter with topological order. By studying these transitions in exactly solvable lattice models we show how universality classes may be identified and critical properties described. As a familiar…
