Kondo insulators combine strong electronic correlations with spin orbit coupling and thereby provide a potential realization of correlated topological insulators. We present model calculations which allow us to study the onset of bulk…
We study surface states of topological crystalline insulators and superconductors protected by inversion symmetry. These fall into the category of "higher-order" topological insulators and superconductors which possess surface states that…
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…
The recent discovery of higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) has significantly extended our understanding of topological phases of matter. Here, we predict that second-order corner states can emerge in the dipolar-coupled dynamics of…
We investigate the emergence of anti-ferromagnetic ordering and its effect on the helical edge states in a quantum spin Hall insulator, in the presence of strong Coulomb interaction. Using dynamical mean-field theory, we show that the…
Higher-order topological~(HOT) states,~hosting topologically protected modes on lower-dimensional boundaries,~such as hinges and corners, have recently extended the realm of the static topological phases.~Here we demonstrate the possibility…
Kagome lattices represent an archetype of intriguing physics, attracting a great deal of interest in different branches of natural sciences, recently in the context of topological crystalline insulators. Here, we demonstrate two distinct…
I consider higher-order topological insulator (HOTI) created in chi(2) nonlinear medium and based on two-dimensional generalization of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger waveguide array, where transition between trivial and topological phases is…
Topological insulators are characterized by specially protected conduction on their outer boundaries. We show that the protected edge conduction exhibited by 2-D topological insulators (and also Chern insulators) is independent of…
The higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs), with such as the topological corner states, emerge as a thriving topic in the field of topological physics. But few connections have been found for the HOTIs with the well explored…
We present a theoretical study of an exciton-polariton annular microcavity with an additional quasiperiodic structure along the ring which is implemented in the form of a bicosine dependence. We demonstrate that for a sufficiently strong…
Recently, the higher-order topological phases from the chiral AIII symmetry classes are characterized by a Z topological invariant known as the multipole chiral numbers, which indicate the number of degenerate zero-energy corner states at…
Exploring novel topological matters with exotic quantum states has always been a core issue in the field of condensed matter physics, which can update the understanding of topological phases and broaden the classification of topological…
The modern theory of electric polarization in crystals associates the dipole moment of an insulator with a Berry phase of its electronic ground state [1, 2]. This concept constituted a breakthrough that not only solved the long-standing…
In recent years, higher-order topological phases have attracted great interest in various fields of physics. These phases have protected boundary states at lower-dimensional boundaries than the conventional first-order topological phases…
Higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) which go beyond the description of conventional bulk-boundary correspondence, broaden the understanding of topological insulating phases. Being mainly focused on electronic materials, HOTIs have…
We show that proximity to an altermagnet provides an efficient route to engineering non-Hermitian higher-order topological phases. The proximity-induced altermagnetic order gaps the edge states of a topological insulator, thereby driving a…
Quantum simulators are an essential tool for understanding complex quantum materials. Platforms based on ultracold atoms in optical lattices and photonic devices led the field so far, but electronic quantum simulators are proving to be…
The standard boundary state of a topological insulator in 3+1 dimensions has gapless charged fermions. We present model systems that reproduce this standard gapless boundary state in one phase, but also have gapped phases with topological…
The higher-order corner modes for quantum anomalous Hall insulators in $C_3$ symmetry broken honeycomb lattice have been engineered recently. Here we consider an extended Haldane model in presence of inversion symmetry breaking sub-lattice…
