Recent discoveries have spurred the theoretical prediction and experimental realization of novel materials that have topological properties arising from band inversion. Such topological insulators are insulating in the bulk but have…
It is shown that the presence of matrix dipole moments induced by external electric fields can modify the Hall response in two dimensional Topological insulators. In the case of the Quantum Anomalous Hall effect the induced transverse…
Crystalline symmetries give rise to topological invariants that can distinguish quantum phases of matter. Understanding these in strongly interacting systems is an ongoing research direction requiring non-perturbative methods. Recent…
In this work, we study a one-dimensional model of interacting bosons coupled to a dynamical $\mathbb{Z}_2$ field, the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ Bose-Hubbard model, and analyze the interplay between spontaneous symmetry breaking and topological…
The so called quantum spin Hall phase is a topologically non trivial insulating phase that is predicted to appear in graphene and graphene-like systems. In this work we address the question of whether this topological property persists in…
Electronic topological insulators are one of the breakthroughs of the 21st century condensed matter physics. So far, the search for a light counterpart of an electronic topological insulator has remained elusive. This is due to the…
The primary goal of this paper is to study topological invariants in two dimensional twofold rotation and time-reversal symmetric spinful systems. In this paper, firstly we build a new homotopy invariant based on the lifting of the Wilson…
We investigate the Kondo effect in the two-dimensional electron system with a non-trivial quadratic energy band crossing point. We show that the Kondo effect can induce a new hybrid topological insulator phase which is a coexistence state…
This paper discusses the topological and transport properties of binary heterostructures of different topological materials. The creation of multilayer devices is an alternative to building synthetic topological materials. By adjusting the…
A two-dimensional topological insulator may arise in a centrosymmetric commensurate N\'{e}el antiferromagnet (AF), where staggered magnetization breaks both the elementary translation and time reversal, but retains their product as a…
Hall conductance of noninteracting fermions filling a certain number of Landau levels can be written as a topological invariant. A particular version of this invariant when expressed in terms of the single particle Green's functions…
In light of recent progress in the study of amorphous topological phases, we investigate the effects of structural disorder on the topological properties of a two-dimensional quantum spin Hall insulator modeled by the Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang…
Quantum algorithms provide a potential strategy for solving computational problems that are intractable by classical means. Computing the topological invariants of topological matter is one central problem in research on quantum materials,…
We analyze generalizations of two dimensional topological insulators which can be realized in interacting, time reversal invariant electron systems. These states, which we call fractional topological insulators, contain excitations with…
We study the quantum transition at $T=0$ in the spin-$\frac12$ Ising spin--glass in a transverse field in two dimensions. The world line path integral representation of this model corresponds to an effective classical system in (2+1)…
Topological insulators can be characterized alternatively in terms of bulk or edge properties. We prove the equivalence between the two descriptions for two-dimensional solids in the single-particle picture. We give a new formulation of the…
In non-interacting systems, bands from non-trivial topology emerge strictly at half-filling and exhibit either the quantum anomalous Hall or spin Hall effects. Here we show using determinantal quantum Monte Carlo and an exactly solvable…
We evaluate imaginary time density-density correlation functions for a two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas using the phaseless auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo method. We show that such methodology, once equipped with suitable…
Topological insulators have become one of the most active research areas in condensed matter physics. This article reviews progress on the topic of electronic correlations effects in the two-dimensional case, with a focus on systems with…
We study the two-dimensional Kane-Mele-Hubbard model at half filling by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We present a refined phase boundary for the quantum spin liquid. The topological insulator at finite Hubbard interaction…
