A number of proposals with differing predictions (e.g. Borel group cohomology, oriented cobordism, group supercohomology, spin cobordism, etc.) have been made for the classification of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases. Here we…

We introduce an index for symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases of infinite fermionic chains with an on-site symmetry given by a finite group $G$. This index takes values in $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times H^1(G,\mathbb{Z}_2) \times H^2(G,…

Classification and construction of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases in interacting boson and fermion systems have become a fascinating theoretical direction in recent years. It has been shown that the (generalized) group…

We investigate the physics of one-dimensional symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases protected by symmetries whose symmetry generators exhibit spatial modulation. We focus in particular on phases protected by symmetries with linear…

Symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases are gapped short-range-entangled quantum phases with a symmetry $G$, which can all be smoothly connected to the trivial product states if we break the symmetry. It has been shown that a large…

We classify one-dimensional symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases protected by dipole symmetries. A dipole symmetry comprises two sets of symmetry generators: charge and dipole operators, which together form a non-trivial algebra with…

We generalize the hidden symmetry-breaking picture of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) order developed by Kennedy and Tasaki in the context of the Haldane phase. Our generalization applies to a wide class of SPT phases in…

We study $S=1$ quantum spin systems on the infinite chain with short ranged Hamiltonians which have certain rotational and discrete symmetry. We define a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ index for any gapped unique ground state, and prove that it is…

We provide a classification of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases of many-body localized (MBL) spin and fermionic systems in one dimension. For spin systems, using tensor networks we show that all eigenstates of these phases have…

Symmetry protected topological phase is one type of nontrivial quantum disordered many-body state of matter. In this work we study one class of symmetry protected topological phases in two dimensional space, with both PSU(N) and time…

We put the theory of interacting topological crystalline phases on a systematic footing. These are topological phases protected by space-group symmetries. Our central tool is an elucidation of what it means to "gauge" such symmetries. We…

Quantum many-body systems divide into a variety of phases with very different physical properties. The question of what kind of phases exist and how to identify them seems hard especially for strongly interacting systems. Here we make an…

Establishing symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases with interactions in chemically realistic systems remains an open challenge. We show that a single, synthetically plausible organic one-dimensional chain, tunable via chemical…

We study symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phase transitions induced by stacking two gapped one-dimensional subsystems in BDI symmetry class. The topological invariant of the entire system is a sum of three topological invariants: two…

We consider a set $SPG(\mathcal{A})$ of pure split states on a quantum spin chain $\mathcal{A}$ which are invariant under the on-site action $\tau$ of a finite group $G$. For each element $\omega$ in $SPG(\mathcal{A})$ we can associate a…

We consider symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases with crystalline point group symmetry, dubbed point group SPT (pgSPT) phases. We show that such phases can be understood in terms of lower-dimensional topological phases with on-site…

Recently, a theory has been proposed that classifies cyclic processes of symmetry protected topological (SPT) quantum states. For the case of spin chains, i.e.\ one-dimensional bosonic SPT's, this theory implies that cyclic processes are…

It is well known that (1+1)-D bosonic symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases with symmetry group $G$ can be identified by the projective representation of the symmetry at the edge. Here, we generalize this result to higher dimensions.…

We consider 1d Hamiltonian systems whose ground states display symmetry protected topological order. We show that ground states within the topological phase cannot be connected with each other through LOCC between a bipartition of the…

An important aspect in categorizing topological phases is whether the system is spinless or spinful, given that these classes exhibit distinct symmetry algebras, leading to disparate topological classifications. By utilizing the projective…
