Topological quantum states are characterized by nonlocal invariants, and their detection is intrinsically challenging. Various strategies have been developed to study topological Hamiltonians through their equilibrium states. We present a…

Motivated by recent experimental progress in the study of quantum systems far from equilibrium, we investigate the relation between several dynamical signatures of topology in the coherent time-evolution after a quantum quench.…

A quantum quench is a nonequilibrium dynamics governed by the unitary evolution. We propose a two-band model whose quench dynamics is characterized by an arbitrary Hopf number belonging to the homotopy group $\pi _{3}(S^{2})=\mathbb{Z}$.…

We study the effect of strong disorder on topology and entanglement in quench dynamics. Although disorder-induced topological phases have been well studied in equilibrium, the disorder-induced topology in quench dynamics has not been…

Hopf insulators are exotic topological states of matter outside the standard ten-fold way classification based on discrete symmetries. Its topology is captured by an integer invariant that describes the linking structures of the Hamiltonian…

In the creation of Hopf topological matters, the old paradigm is to conceive the Hopf invariant first, and then display its intuitive topology through links. Here we brush aside this effort and put forward a new recipe for unraveling the…

Recent experiments began to explore the topological properties of quench dynamics, i.e. the time evolution following a sudden change in the Hamiltonian, via tomography of quantum gases in optical lattices. In contrast to the well…

Quench dynamics of topological phases have been studied in the past few years and dynamical topological invariants are formulated in different ways. Yet most of these invariants are limited to minimal systems in which Hamiltonians are…

We study the quench dynamics of entanglement spectra in the Kitaev chain with variable-range pairing quantified by power-law decay rate $\alpha$. Considering the post-quench Hamiltonians with flat bands, we demonstrate that the presence of…

The notion of topological phases extended to dynamical systems stimulates extensive studies, of which the characterization of non-equilibrium topological invariants is a central issue and usually necessitates the information of quantum…

We study the coherent non-equilibrium dynamics of interacting two-dimensional systems after a quench from a trivial to a topological Chern insulator phase. While the many-body wavefunction is constrained to remain topologically trivial…

Topological order is defined by topological invariants, rather than symmetries and local order parameters. Nonetheless some topological phases can be characterized by string order parameters and entanglement. In this article we study how…

We perform a sudden quench on the Haldane model with long range interactions, more specifically generalising to the next to next nearest neighbour hopping, referred to as the $N3$ model in our work. Such a model possesses both isotropic and…

Chern insulators exhibit fascinating properties which originate from the topologically nontrivial state characterized by the Chern number. How these properties change if the system is quenched between topologically distinct phases has…

We discuss the topological invariant in the (2+1)-dimensional quench dynamics of a two-dimensional two-band Chern insulator starting from a topological initial state (i.e., with a nonzero Chern number $c_i$), evolved by a post-quench…

Entanglement is one of the most fundamental features of quantum systems. In this work, we obtain the entanglement spectrum and entropy of Floquet noninteracting fermionic lattice models and build their connections with Floquet topological…

If an extensive partition in two dimensions yields a gapful entanglement spectrum of the reduced density matrix, the Berry curvature based on the corresponding entanglement eigenfunction defines the Chern number. We propose such an…

Entanglement is known to serve as an order parameter for true topological order in two-dimensional systems. We show how entanglement of disconnected partitions defines topological invariants for one-dimensional topological superconductors.…

Entanglement entropy provides a powerful characterization of two-dimensional gapped topological phases of quantum matter, intimately tied to their description by topological quantum field theories (TQFTs). Fracton topological orders are…

The classification of electron systems according to their topology has been at the forefront of condensed matter research in recent years. It has been found that systems of the same symmetry, previously thought of as equivalent, may in fact…
