We propose a new correlated topological state which we call a higher-order topological Mott insulator (HOTMI). This state exhibits a striking bulk-boundary correspondence due to electron correlations. Namely, the topological properties in…

Room-temperature realization of macroscopic quantum phenomena is one of the major pursuits in fundamental physics. The quantum spin Hall state, a topological quantum phenomenon that features a two-dimensional insulating bulk and a helical…

We investigate properties of a topological Mott insulator in one dimension by examining the bulk topological invariant and the entanglement spectrum of a correlated electron model. We clarify how gapless edge states in a non-interacting…

We introduce a real-space slave rotor theory of the physics of topological Mott insulators, using the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model as an example, and use it to show that a topological gap in the Green function zeros corresponds to a gap in the…

We analyze interacting ultra-cold bosonic atoms in a one-dimensional (1D) super-lattice potential with alternating tunneling rates t_1 and t_2 and inversion symmetry, which is the bosonic analogue of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. A…

While one of the most important and intriguing features of the topological insulators is the presence of edge states, the closed-form expressions for the edge states of some famous topological models are still lacking. Here, we focus on the…

Topological Mott insulator (TMI) with spontaneous time-reversal symmetry breaking and nonzero Chern number has been discovered in a real-space effective model for twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) at 3/4 filling in the strong coupling limit.…

We study topology in gapless phases of an interacting spinful model with spin-charge separation. We focus on the gapless boundaries between $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry-breaking phases. We find two topologically non-trivial gapless states that…

The physics of the triangular lattice Hubbard model exhibits a rich phenomenology, ranging from a metal-insulator transition, intriguing thermodynamic behavior, and a putative spin liquid phase at intermediate coupling, ultimately becoming…

We demonstrate that a combination of disorder and interactions in a two-dimensional bulk topological insulator can generically drive its helical edge insulating. We establish this within the framework of helical Luttinger liquid theory and…

A two-dimensional topological insulator (2DTI) is guaranteed to have a helical 1D edge mode in which spin is locked to momentum, producing the quantum spin Hall effect and prohibiting elastic backscattering at zero magnetic field. No…

Topologically protected edge states are the highlight feature of an interface between non-equivalent insulators. The robustness/sensitivity of these states to local single-particle perturbations is well understood, while their stability in…

The electronic structure at the interface between a topological band insulator and a Mott insulator is studied within layer dynamical mean field theory. To represent the bulk phases of these systems, we use the generalized…
