Symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases are gapped short-range-entangled quantum phases with a symmetry G. They can all be smoothly connected to the same trivial product state if we break the symmetry. The Haldane phase of spin-1 chain…
Spin chains with two Ising symmetries are the Jordan-Wigner duals of one-dimensional interacting fermions with particle-hole and time-reversal symmetry. From earlier works on Majorana chains, it is known that this class of models has 10…
We study one-dimensional disordered systems with average non-invertible symmetries, where quenched disorder may locally break part of the symmetry while preserving it upon disorder averaging. A canonical example is the random…
Spin squeezing - a central resource for quantum metrology - can be generated via the non-linear, entangling evolution of an initially factorized spin state. Here we show that robust (i.e. persistent) squeezing dynamics is generated by a…
Both the Haldane spin-$1$ chain and dimerized chains of spin-$1/2$ exhibit topologically protected edge states that are robust against specific perturbations. Recently, such spin chains have been specifically assembled on surfaces and we…
A solid is typically deemed amorphous when there are no Bragg peaks in its diffraction pattern. We discuss a two dimensional configuration of Ising spins with an autocorrelation function which vanishes at all nonzero distances, so that its…
Symmetry protected topological phases of one-dimensional spin systems have been classified using group cohomology. In this paper, we revisit this problem for general spin chains which are invariant under a continuous on-site symmetry group…
We propose to realize one-dimensional topological phases protected by SU($N$) symmetry using alkali or alkaline-earth atoms loaded into a bichromatic optical lattice. We derive a realistic model for this system and investigate it…
We begin with an introduction to topological order using Wegner's quantum $Z_2$ gauge theory on the square lattice: the topological state is characterized by the expulsion of defects, carrying $Z_2$ magnetic flux. The interplay between…
We propose how to realize the topological modes, which correspond to topological zero modes for a quantum system, protected by chiral and rotation symmetry for a mechanical system. Specifically, we show the emergence of topological modes…
We introduce a toy model implementing the proposal of using a custodial symmetry to protect the Zbb coupling from large corrections. This "doublet-extended standard model" adds a weak doublet of fermions (including a heavy partner of the…
We study the underlying symmetry in a spin-orbit coupled tight-binding model with Hubbard interaction. It is shown that, in the absence of the on-site interaction, the system possesses the SU(2) symmetry arising from the timereversal…
We present a simple criterion for solvability of lattice spin systems on the basis of the graph theory and the simplicial homology. The lattice systems satisfy algebras with graphical representations. It is shown that the null spaces of…
We present an exactly solvable spin-3/2 model defined on a pentacoordinated three-dimensional graphite lattice, which realizes a novel quantum spin liquid with second-order topology. The exact solutions are described by Majorana fermions…
Motivated by the duality between site-centered spin and bond-centered spin in one-dimensional system, which connects two different constructions of fermions from the same set of Majorana fermions, we show that two-dimensional models with…
The doubling of massless Dirac fermions on two-dimensional lattices is theoretically studied. It has been shown that the doubling of massless Dirac fermions on a lattice with broken chiral symmetry is topologically protected even when the…
Square-root topological phases have been discussed mainly for systems with chiral symmetry. In this paper, we analyze the topology of the squared Hamiltonian for systems preserving the time-reversal and particle-hole symmetry. Our analysis…
The ground state of the $S=1$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain belongs to the Haldane phase -- a well known example of symmetry-protected topological phase. A staggered field applied to the $S=1$ antiferromagnetic chain breaks all the…
Chiral Haldane phases are examples of one-dimensional topological states of matter which are protected by projective SU($N$) group (or its subgroup $\mathbb{Z}_N \times \mathbb{Z}_N$) with $N>2$. The unique feature of these symmetry…
Higher-order topological insulators are distinguished by the existence of topologically protected modes with codimension two or higher. Here, we report the manifestation of a second-order topological insulator in a two dimensional…
