Recently, fractional Chern insulators (FCIs), also called fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) states, have been theoretically established in lattice systems with topological flat bands. These systems exhibit similar fractionalization…
The experimental discoveries of fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects under zero magnetic fields in both transition metal dichalcogenide and pentalayer graphene moir\'e superlattices have aroused significant research interest. In this…
Fractionally filled Chern bands with strong interactions may give rise to fractional Chern insulator (FCI) states, the zero-field analogue of the fractional quantum Hall effect. Recent experiments have demonstrated the existence of FCIs in…
We study the scattering of graphene quasiparticles by topological defects, represented by holes, pentagons and heptagons. For the case of holes, we obtain the phase shift and found that at low concentration they appear to be irrelevant for…
Breakthrough experiments have recently realized fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) in moir\'e materials. However, all states observed are Abelian, the possible existence of more exotic non-Abelian FCIs remains controversial both…
In the absence of time reversal symmetry, orbital magnetization provides a sensitive probe of topology and interactions, with particularly rich phenomenology in Chern insulators where topological edge states carry large equilibrium…
Chirally stacked $N$-layer graphene is a semimetal with $\pm p^N$ band-touching at two nonequivalent corners in its Brillioun zone. We predict that an off-resonant circularly polarized light (CPL) drives chirally stacked $N$-layer graphene…
We perform a multi-band exact diagonalization (ED) study of rhombohedral pentalayer graphene twisted on hexagonal boron nitride with a focus on fractional Chern insulators (FCI) in systems with weak moir\'e gaps, complementing the results…
We investigate topological phase transitions in Chern insulators within three-band models, focusing on the empty band and lowest band populated by spinless fermions. We consider Lieb and kagome lattices and notice phase transitions driven…
We discuss detection strategies for fractional topological insulators (FTIs) realizing time-reversal invariant analogues of fractional quantum Hall systems in the Laughlin universality class. Focusing on transport measurements, we study the…
Rhombohedral multilayer graphene, with its flat electronic bands and concentrated Berry curvature, is a promising material for the realization of correlated topological phases of matter. When aligned to an adjacent hexagonal boron nitride…
Moir\'e fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) are a novel class of quantum matter that realizes fractional quantum Hall (FQH) physics in zero magnetic field and provides a platform for exploring unconventional collective excitations. Here we…

The discovery that the band structure of electronic insulators may be topologically non-trivial has unveiled distinct phases of electronic matter with novel properties. Recently, mechanical lattices have been found to have similarly rich…
Fractional Chern insulators realize the remarkable physics of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) in crystalline systems with Chern bands. The lowest Landau level (LLL) is known to host the FQHE, but not all Chern bands are suitable…

Moir\'e flatbands with high Chern numbers (C>1) offer opportunities to study the fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects that go beyond the Landau level paradigm with C=1, which remain unexplored yet. Here, we target the novel topological…
Recent developments in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) physics highlight the importance of studying FQH phases of particles partially occupying energy bands that are not Landau levels. FQH phases in the regime of strong lattice effects,…
It has been recently realized that strong interactions in topological Bloch bands give rise to the appearance of novel states of matter. Here we study connections between these systems -- fractional Chern insulators and the fractional…
We provide a parton construction of wavefunctions and effective field theories for fractional Chern insulators. We also analyze a strong coupling expansion in lattice gauge theory that enables us to reliably map the parton gauge theory onto…
