Exploiting the possibility of temporal variation of the winding number, we have prepared a SSH chain in its {\it stroboscopic} topological state, starting from the trivial one, by application of a periodic perturbation. The periodic…

We study the topological properties of one dimensional systems undergoing unitary time evolution. We show that symmetries possessed both by the initial wavefunction and by the Hamiltonian at all times may not be present in the…

Working in the context of the Su-Schreiffer-Heeger (SSH) model, the effect of topological transitions on the structure and properties of bulk position-space wavefunctions is studied for a particle undergoing a quantum walk in a…

Over the past few years, topological insulators have taken center stage in solid state physics. The desire to tune the topological invariants of the bulk and thus control the number of edge states has steered theorists and experimentalists…

We show that the bulk winding number characterizing one-dimensional topological insulators with chiral symmetry can be detected from the displacement of a single particle, observed via losses. Losses represent the effect of repeated weak…

The topology of one-dimensional chiral systems is captured by the winding number of the Hamiltonian eigenstates. Here we show that this invariant can be read-out by measuring the mean chiral displacement of a single-particle wavefunction…

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…

We propose a bulk topological invariant for one-dimensional Floquet systems with chiral symmetry which quantifies the particle transport on each sublattice during the evolution. This chiral flow is physically motivated, locally computable,…

Topological matter exhibits exotic properties yet phases characterized by large topological invariants are difficult to implement, despite rapid experimental progress. A promising route toward higher topological invariants is via engineered…

This paper concerns the asymmetric transport observed along interfaces separating two-dimensional bulk topological insulators modeled by (continuous) differential Hamiltonians and how such asymmetry persists after numerical discretization.…

Mathematically, topological invariants arise from the parallel transport of eigenstates on the energy bands, which, in physics, correspond to the adiabatic dynamical evolution of transient states. It determines the presence of boundary…

Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians provide a simple picture for analyzing systems with natural or induced gain and loss; however, in general, such Hamiltonians feature complex energies and a corresponding non-orthonormal eigenbasis. Provided that…

We study Floquet topological transition in irradiated graphene when the polarization of incident light changes randomly with time. We numerically confirm that the noise averaged time evolution operator approaches a steady value in the limit…

We study topological phases in one-dimensional open Floquet systems driven by chiral symmetric nonunitary time evolution. We derive a procedure to calculate topological numbers from nonunitary time-evolution operators with chiral symmetry.…

We describe a time evolution algorithm for quantum spin chains whose Hamiltonians are composed of an infinite uniform left and right bulk part, and an arbitrary finite region in between. The left and right bulk parts are allowed to be…

Topological invariants, such as the winding number, the Chern number, and the Zak phase, characterize the topological phases of bulk materials. Through the bulk-boundary correspondence, these topological phases have a one-to-one…

We consider an extended trimer Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) tight-binding Hamiltonian keeping up to next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) hopping terms and on-site potential energy. The Bloch Hamiltonian can be expressed in terms of all the eight…

The time evolution of a closed quantum system is connected to its Hamiltonian through Schroedinger's equation. The ability to estimate the Hamiltonian is critical to our understanding of quantum systems, and allows optimization of control.…

We present an exact analytical investigation of the topological properties and edge states of the Haldane model defined on a honeycomb lattice with zigzag edges. By exploiting translational symmetry along the ribbon direction, we perform a…

When translational symmetry is broken by bulk disorder, the topological nature of states in topological crystalline systems may change depending on the type of disorder that is applied. In this work, we characterize the phases of a…
