In non-relativistic physics, the concepts of geometry and topology are usually applied to characterize spatial structures or structures in momentum space. We introduce the concept of temporal geometry, which encompasses the geometric and…
Beyond the well-known topological band theory for single-particle systems, it is a great challenge to characterize the topological nature of interacting multi-particle quantum systems. Here, we uncover the relation between topological…
Topological properties lie at the heart of many fascinating phenomena in solid state systems such as quantum Hall systems or Chern insulators. The topology can be captured by the distribution of Berry curvature, which describes the geometry…
Berry curvature that describes local geometrical properties of energy bands can elucidate many fascinating phenomena in solid-state, photonic, and phononic systems, given its connection to global topological invariants such as the Chern…
The topological structure of the wavefunctions of particles in periodic potentials is characterized by the Berry curvature $\Omega_{kn}$ whose integral on the Brillouin zone is a topological invariant known as the Chern number. The…

Non-reciprocal interactions, where the influence of agent $i$ on $j$ differs from that of $j$ on $i$, are fundamental in active and living matter. Yet, most models implement such asymmetry phenomenologically. Here we show that…
The properties that quantify photonic topological insulators (PTIs), Berry phase, Berry connection, and Chern number, are typically obtained by making analogies between classical Maxwell's equations and the quantum mechanical…

Through understanding Maxwell's equations as an effective Dirac equation (the `optical Dirac equation'), we re--examine the relationship between electromagnetic interface states and topology. We illustrate a simple case where…
The Chern index characterizes the topological phases of nonreciprocal photonic systems. Unlike in electronic systems, the photonic Chern number has no clear physical meaning, except that it determines the net number of unidirectional edge…
