In this work we investigate the effects of the short range magnetic correlations on the gap opening of the topological Kondo insulators. We consider an additional narrow band to the otherwise completely localized f-electrons, by adding a…

We study the effects of strong electron-electron interactions on the surface of cubic topological Kondo insulators (such as samarium hexaboride, SmB$_6$). Cubic topological Kondo insulators generally support three copies of massless Dirac…

Topological Kondo insulators are a new class of topological insulators in which metallic surface states protected by topological invariants reside in the bulk band gap at low temperatures. Unlike other three-dimensional topological…

We investigate the competition between the spin-orbit interaction of itinerant electrons and their Kondo coupling with local moments densely distributed on the honeycomb lattice. We find that the model at half-filling displays a quantum…

We give an introduction to topological crystalline insulators, that is, gapped ground states of quantum matter that are not adiabatically connected to an atomic limit without breaking symmetries that include spatial transformations, like…

The interplay between non-trivial band topology and strong electronic correlations is a central challenge in modern condensed matter physics. We investigate this competition on a two-leg ladder model with a p-wave-like hybridisation between…

We study the interplay between the spin-liquid and Kondo physics, as related to the non-magnetic part of the phase diagram of heavy fermion materials. Within the unrestricted mean-field treatment of the infinite-$U$ 2D Anderson-Heisenberg…

Recently, a quantum anomalous Hall state at odd integer filling in moir\'e stacked MoTe$_2$/WSe$_2$ was convincingly interpreted as a topological Mott insulator state appearing due to strong interactions in {\it band} basis [P. Mai, J.…

We present theoretical results for a Kondo-lattice model with spin-1/2 localized moments, including both the intrasite Kondo coupling and an intersite antiferromagnetic exchange interaction, treated within an extended mean-field…

We propose a scheme to realize the Kondo model with tunable anisotropy using alkaline-earth atoms in an optical lattice. The new feature of our setup is Floquet engineering of interactions using time-dependent Zeeman shifts, that can be…

We investigate the one-dimensional Kondo lattice model (1D KLM) for ferromagnetic Kondo couplings. The so-called ferromagnetic 2-leg spin ladder and the S=1 antiferromagnet occur as new one-dimensional Kondo insulators. Both exhibit a spin…

The Kondo-lattice model is well established as a method to describe an exchange coupling between single conduction electrons and localized magnetic moments. As a nontrivial exact result the zero-bandwidth limit (atomic limit) can be used to…

Kondo insulators have recently aroused great interest because they are promising materials that host a topological insulator state caused by the strong electron interactions. Moreover, recent observations of the quantum oscillations in the…

The single- and two-channel Kondo lattice model consisting of localized spins interacting antiferromagnetically with the itinerent electrons, are studied using dynamical mean field theory. As an impurity solver for the effective single…

We elucidate how Chern and topological insulators fulfill an area law for the entanglement entropy. By explicit construction of a family of lattice Hamiltonians, we are able to demonstrate that the area law contribution can be tuned to an…

Electron scattering off an Anderson impurity immersed in the bulk of a 3D topological insulator is studied in the strong coupling regime, where the temperature $T$ is lower than the Kondo temperature $T_K$. The system displays either a…

Entanglement is one of the most fundamental features of quantum systems. In this work, we obtain the entanglement spectrum and entropy of Floquet noninteracting fermionic lattice models and build their connections with Floquet topological…

Using unitary transformations, we express the Kondo lattice Hamiltonian in terms of fermionic operators that annihilate the ground state of the interacting system and that represent the best possible approximations to the actual charged…

We investigate the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice with intrinsic spin orbit interactions as a paradigm for two-dimensional topological band insulators in the presence of interactions. Applying a combination of Hartree-Fock theory,…

A topological Kondo insulator (TKI) is a strongly-correlated material, where hybridization between the conduction electrons and localized f-electrons gives rise to a crossover from a metallic behavior at high temperatures to a topologically…
