We study the low-energy properties of three-dimensional (3D) topological Mott insulators which can be viewed as strong topological insulators of spinons interacting with a three-dimensional gauge field. The low-energy behavior of such…

In this letter we show that there emerges a gauge field for two attractive particles moving on a curved surface when they form a chiral bound state. By solving a two-body problem on a sphere, we show explicitly that the center-of-mass wave…

We introduce topological gauge fields as nontrivial field configurations enforced by topological currents. These fields crucially determine the form of statistical gauge fields that couple to matter and transmute their statistics. We…

In this article we study field-theoretical aspects of multipolar topological insulators. Previous research has shown that such systems naturally couple to higher-rank tensor gauge fields that arise as a result of gauging dipole or subsystem…

We analyze the electron dynamics in corrugated layers of transition-metal dichalcogenides. Due to the strong spin-orbit coupling, the intrinsic (Gaussian) curvature leads to an emergent gauge field associated with the Berry connection of…

We analyze elastic deformations of graphene sheets which lead to effective gauge fields acting on the charge carriers. Corrugations in the substrate induce stresses, which, in turn, can give rise to mechanical instabilities and the…

It is shown that, contrary to the naive expectation, single particle spectral gaps can be opened on the surface states of three dimensional topological insulators by using commensurate out- and in-plane antiferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic…

The experimental demonstration of pseudo-magnetic fields exceeding 300 T in graphene [2] nanobubbles represents considerable challenge for the present theory connecting the emergence of gauge fields due to strain in the underlying lattice.…

In this paper the free gauge field theories on a Riemann surface of any genus are quantized in the covariant gauge. The propagators of the gauge fields are explicitly derived and their properties are analysed in details. As an application,…

The interplay among the possible variation of gauge coupling and the inflationary dynamics is investigated in a simplified toy model. Depending upon various parameters (scalar mass, curvature scale at the end of inflation and at the onset…

We theoretically study the magnetic phase diagram of a three-dimensional topological Kondo insulator by means of real-space dynamical mean field theory. We find that ferromagnetically ordered states become stable upon hole doping. Besides a…

The surface of a 3D topological insulator is described by a helical electron state with the electron's spin and momentum locked together. We show that in the presence of ferromagnetic fluctuations the surface of a topological insulator is…

We investigate theoretically the electromagnon on the surfaces of the magnetic topological insulator thin films. It is found that when the magnetic asymmetry between the top and bottom surfaces is there, the ferromagnetic resonance is…

We introduce a topological gauge vector potential which influences spin wave excitations over arbitrary non-uniform, slowly moving magnetization distribution. The time-component of the gauge potential plays a principal role in magnetization…

Topological insulators are bulk insulators with exotic surface states, protected under time-reversal symmetry, that hold promise in observing many exciting condensed-matter phenomena. In this report, we show that by having a topological…

Folded graphene flakes are a natural byproduct of the micromechanical exfoliation process. In this Letter we show by a combination of analytical and numerical methods that such systems behave as intriguing interferometers due to the…

Artificial gauge fields are currently realized in a wide range of physical settings. This includes solid-state devices but also engineered systems, such as photonic crystals, ultracold gases and mechanical setups. It is the aim of this…

Topological properties of the gauge field in a two-dimensional Higgs model are investigated. Results of exploratory numerical simulations are presented.

We apply the general conception of non-Abelian gauge fields for description of magnetic soliton excitations. We show that the component of the gauge field along the soliton local magnetization (Abelian part of the gauge potential)…

A three-dimensional topological insulator manifests gapless surface modes, described by two-dimensional Dirac equation. We study magnetic textures, such as domain walls and vortices, in a ferromagnetic thin film deposited on a…
