Recently, hyperbolic lattices that tile the negatively curved hyperbolic plane emerged as a new paradigm of synthetic matter, and their energy levels were characterized by a band structure in a four- (or higher-)dimensional momentum space.…
In the two-dimensional case the transition between ordinary and topological insulator states can be described by a massive Dirac model with the mass term changing its sign at the transition point. We theoretically investigate how such a…
We study electronic structures at an interface between a topological insulator and a ferromagnetic insulator by using three-dimensional two-band model. In usual ferromagnetic insulators, the exchange potential is much larger than the bulk…
The effects of Hubbard-type on-site interactions on the BHZ model is studied in this paper for model parameters appropriate for the HgTe/CdTe quantum well. Within a simple mean field theory we search for plausible magnetic instabilities in…
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…
Topological flat bands have gained extensive interest as a platform for exploring the interplay between nontrivial band topology and correlation effects. In recent studies, strongly correlated phenomena originating from a topological flat…
Recently, real topological phases protected by $PT$ symmetry have been actively investigated. In two dimensions, the corresponding topological invariant is the Stiefel-Whitney number. A recent theoretical advance is that in the presence of…
We theoretically investigate the RKKY interaction in helical higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs), revealing distinct behaviors mediated by hinge and Dirac-type bulk carriers. Our findings show that hinge-mediated interactions…
Abnormal electronic properties of complex systems require new ideas concerning explanation of their behavior and possibility of realization. In this acticle we show that a colossal magnetoresistance is realized in the state of the…
We theoretically study magnetic and topological properties of antiferromagnetic kagome spin systems in the presence of both in- and out-of-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions. In materials such as the iron jarosites, the in-plane…
Coulomb interactions among electrons and holes in two-dimensional (2D) semimetals with overlapping valence and conduction bands can give rise to a correlated insulating ground state via exciton formation and condensation. One candidate…
Magnetic topological insulators and their heterostructures provide great opportunities in coupling band topology with nontrivial spin configuration for enhanced spintronic device performance as well as designing totally new magnetoelectric…
Magnon bands are known to exhibit nontrivial topology in ordered magnets under suitable conditions, engendering topological phases referred to as magnonic topological insulators. Conventional methods to drive a magnonic topological phase…
The most interesting experimental results obtained in studies of 2D and 3D topological insulators (TIs) based on HgTe quantum wells and films are reviewed. In the case of 2D TIs, these include the observation of nonlocal ballistic and…
We systematically explore the ground-state phase diagram of the Kane-Mele-Kondo lattice model on the honeycomb lattice, in particular, we focus on its magnetic properties which has not been studied in the previous publication[Feng, Dai,…
Recently, a new type of second-order topological insulator has been theoretically proposed by introducing an in-plane Zeeman field into the Kane-Mele model in the two-dimensional honeycomb lattice. A pair of topological corner states arise…
A kagome lattice naturally features Dirac fermions, flat bands and van Hove singularities in its electronic structure. The Dirac fermions encode topology, flat bands favour correlated phenomena such as magnetism, and van Hove singularities…
We apply linked cluster expansion techniques to study the polarized high-field phase of a spin-half antiferromagnet on the Kagome lattice with Heisenberg and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI). We find that the Dirac points of the…
One of the most exciting subjects in solid state physics is a single layer of graphite which exhibits a variety of unconventional novel properties. The key feature of its electronic structure are linear dispersive bands which cross in a…
We examine the properties of edge states in a two-dimensional topological insulator. Based on the Kane-Mele model, we derive two coupled equations for the energy and the effective width of edge states at a given momentum in a semi-infinite…
