Motivated by the recent experimental breakthrough on the observation of the fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) effects in semiconductor and graphene moir\'{e} materials, we explore the rich physics associated with the coexistence of…
Discovery of novel topological orders of condensed matters is of a significant interest in both fundamental and applied physics due to the associated quantum conductance behaviors and unique symmetry-protected backscattering-immune…
We consider a class of {\em quantum Hall topological insulators}: topologically nontrivial states with zero Chern number at finite magnetic field, in which the counter-propagating edge states are protected by a symmetry (spatial or spin)…
We have studied the fractional quantum Hall states on the surface of a topological insulator thin film in an external magnetic field, where the Dirac fermion nature of the charge carriers have been experimentally established only recently.…
We study an unconventional quantum Hall effect for the surface states of ultrathin Floquet topological insulators in a perpendicular magnetic field. The resulting band structure is modified by photon dressing and the topological property is…
The warping effect on the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states in topological insulators is studied theoretically. Based on the perturbed wavefunctions, which include contributions from the warping term, analytical expressions for Haldane's…
We investigate how a magnetic field induces one-dimensional edge channels when the two-dimensional surface states of three-dimensional topological insulators become gapped. The Hall effect, measured by contacting those channels, remains…
The search for topologically non-trivial states of matter has become an important goal for condensed matter physics. Here, we give a theoretical introduction to the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect based on magnetic topological…
When electrons are subject to a large external magnetic field, the conventional charge quantum Hall effect \cite{Klitzing,Tsui} dictates that an electronic excitation gap is generated in the sample bulk, but metallic conduction is permitted…
Recently, higher-order topological matter and 3D quantum Hall effects have attracted great attention. The Fermi-arc mechanism of the 3D quantum Hall effect proposed in Weyl semimetals is characterized by the one-sided hinge states, which do…
Weak topological insulators, constructed by stacking quantum spin Hall insulators with weak interlayer coupling, offer promising quantum electronic applications through topologically nontrivial edge channels. However, the currently…
We study topological properties of density wave states with broken translational symmetry in two-dimensional multi-orbital systems with a particular focus on t$_{2g}$ orbitals in square lattice. Due to distinct symmetry properties of…
Condensed matter realization of a single Dirac cone of fermions in two dimensions is a long-standing issue. Here we report the discovery of a single gapless Dirac cone of half-quantized Hall conductance in a magnetically-doped topological…
Motivated by the discovery of the quantum anomalous Hall effect in Cr-doped \ce{(Bi,Sb)2Te3} thin films, we study the generic states for magnetic topological insulators and explore the physical properties for both magnetism and itinerant…
The strong correlation effects on topological insulator are studied in a two-sublattice system with an onsite single-particle energy difference $\Delta$ between two sublattices. At $\Delta=0$, increasing the onsite interaction strength $U$…
Recently a nonsymmorphic topological insulator was predicted, where the characteristic feature is the emergence of a "hourglass fermion" surface state protected by the nonsymmorphic symmetry. Such a state has already been observed…
The quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect in the DC regime, which has been intensively researched, relies on the existence of symmetry-protected edge states. Here, we demonstrate that a QSH system behaves quite differently in response to an…
The discovery of topological insulators has rapidly been followed by the advent of their photonic analogues, motivated by the prospect of backscattering-immune light propagation. So far, however, implementations have mainly relied on…
The half-quantized anomalous Hall conductance (AHC) in topological materials is a condensed matter physics realization of the parity anomaly of (2+1) quantum field theory and an important challenge for both theoretical and experimental…
We consider a system of weakly coupled one-dimensional wires forming a three-dimensional stack in the presence of a spatially periodic modulation of the chemical potential along the wires, equivalent to a charge density wave (CDW). An…
