Topological phases in one-dimensional superconducting systems are commonly characterized by symmetry-protected invariants. These invariants determine the number of Majorana zero-energy boundary modes but do not specify their corresponding…

We study zeros of the partition functions of ferromagnetic 2-state spin systems in terms of the external field, and obtain new zero-free regions of these systems via a refinement of Asano's and Ruelle's contraction method. The strength of…

Zero energy states in one dimensional SSH Kitaev hybrid systems have emerged as promising candidates for topological qubits. In our work, we show that introducing a domain wall into a chain with anisotropic superconducting correlations…

We introduce a systematic method for constructing gapped domain walls of topologically ordered systems by gauging a lower-dimensional symmetry-protected topological (SPT) order. Based on our construction, we propose a correspondence between…

The dynamic evolution at zero temperature of a uniform Ising ferromagnet on a square lattice is followed by Monte Carlo computer simulations. The system always eventually reaches a final, absorbing state, which sometimes coincides with a…

This paper generalizes two facts about oriented 3d TFTs to the unoriented case. On one hand, it is known that oriented 3d TFTs having a topological boundary condition admit a state-sum construction known as the Turaev-Viro construction.…

It has long been expected that the 3d Ising model can be thought of as a string theory, where one interprets the domain walls that separate up spins from down spins as two-dimensional string worldsheets. The usual Ising Hamiltonian measures…

We investigate the problem of constructing a dynamics on edge--spin configurations which realizes a coupling between a Glauber dynamics of the Ising model and a dynamical evolution of the percolation configurations. We dream of constructing…

We examine neutrino zeromode solutions on the electroweak $Z$-string and their effect on the stability of the string in the standard model and its extensions. We propose using topological invariants constructed from the momentum (and real)…

We review Kitaev's celebrated "periodic table" for topological phases of condensed matter, which identifies ground states (Fermi projections) of gapped periodic quantum systems up to continuous deformations. We study families of projections…

We examine properties of the mean-field wave function of the one-dimensional Kitaev model supporting Majorana Zero Modes (MZMs) \emph{when restricted} to a fixed number of particles. Such wave functions can in fact be realized as exact…

In recent years it has become increasingly clear that the previously overlooked ``global structure'' of symmetry groups can encode significant theoretical structure and, more importantly, have substantial phenomenological implications. With…

We present a general computational framework to investigate ground state properties of quantum spin models on infinite two-dimensional lattices using automatic differentiation-based gradient optimization of infinite projected entangled-pair…

Interacting fermionic chains exhibit extended regions of topological degeneracy of their ground states as a result of the presence of Majorana or parafermionic zero modes localized at the edges. In the opposite limit of infinite…

Topological metamaterials have invaded the mechanical world, demonstrating acoustic cloaking and waveguiding at finite frequencies and variable, tunable elastic response at zero frequency. Zero frequency topological states have previously…

We propose a general theoretical framework for both constructing and diagnosing inversion-protected higher-order topological superconductors using Kitaev building blocks, a higher-dimensional generalization of Kitaev's one-dimensional…

One-dimensional topological phases can host localized zero-energy modes that enable high-fidelity storage and manipulation of quantum information. Majorana fermion chains support a classic example of such a phase, having zero modes that…

The connection between the strictly isospectral construction in supersymmetric quantum mechanics and the general zero mode solutions of the Schroedinger equation is explained by introducing slightly generalized first-order intertwining…

Bulk-boundary correspondence is a concept for topological insulators and superconductors that determines the existence of topological boundary states within the tenfold classification table. Contrary to this belief, we demonstrate that…

The topological degeneracy is a characteristic of quantum phase diagram in an Ising chain with transverse field. We revisit the phase diagram at nonzero temperature of an Ising chain with two types of open boundary conditions. In this work,…
