Condensed matter systems admit topological collective excitations above a trivial ground state, an example being Chern insulators formed by Dirac bosons with a gap at finite energies. However, in contrast to electrons, there is no…
Robustness against disorder and defects is a pivotal advantage of topological systems, manifested by absence of electronic backscattering in the quantum Hall and spin-Hall effects, and unidirectional waveguiding in their classical analogs.…
How much information is stored in the ground-state of a system without \emph{any symmetry} and how can we extract it? This question is investigated by analyzing the behavior of a topological Chern Insulator (CI) in the presence of disorder,…
Quasi-periodic quantum spin chains were recently found to support many topological phases in the finite magnetization sectors. They can simulate strong topological phases from class A in arbitrary dimension that are characterized by first…
We determine the ground-state phase diagram for the 1/r-Hubbard model with repulsive nearest-neighbor interaction at half band-filling using the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. Due to the absence of Umklapp cattering,…
A scenario of non-Hermitian bulk--boundary correspondence proposed for one-dimensional topological insulators is adapted to a non-Hermitian Chern insulator to examine its applicability to two-dimensional systems. This scenario employs bulk…
We study a class of multi-orbital models based on those proposed by Venderbos, Hu, and Kane which exhibit an interplay of topology, interactions, and fermion incoherence. In the non-interacting limit, these models exhibit trivial and Chern…
Topological phases of quantum matter defy characterization by conventional order parameters but can exhibit quantized electro-magnetic response and/or protected surface states. We examine such phenomena in a model for three-dimensional…
A concrete strategy is presented for generating strong topological insulators in $d+d'$ dimensions which have quantized physics in $d$ dimensions. Here, $d$ counts the physical and $d'$ the virtual dimensions. It consists of seeking…
Bi-layer Kagome compounds provide an exciting playground where the interplay of topology and strong correlations can give rise to exotic phases of matter. Motivated by recent first principles calculation on such systems (Phys. Rev. Lett…
A $U(1)$ gauge theory coupled to a Wilson fermion on a $2+1$ dimensional cubic lattice is known to exhibit Chern insulator like topological transitions as a function of the the ratio $M/R$ where $M$ is the fermion mass and $R$ is the Wilson…
Correlated electrons in a binary alloy $A_{x}B_{1-x}$ are investigated within the Hubbard model and dynamical mean--field theory (DMFT). The random energies $\epsilon_{i}$ have a bimodal probability distribution and an energy separation…
In 2D Chern insulators (2D CI), the topology of the bulk states is captured by a topological invariant, the Chern number. The scalar bulk-boundary correspondence (sBBC) relates the change in Chern number across an interface with the number…
Realizing topological insulators is of great current interest because of their remarkable properties and possible future applications. There are recent proposals, based on Floquet analyses, that one can generate topologically nontrivial…
We construct an interacting lattice model for twisted $\mathrm{MoTe}_{2}$ bilayers at a twist angle of approximately 3.7\degree. We use the infinite density matrix renormalization group (iDMRG) in a cylinder geometry to identify a variety…
We propose a simple scheme for the realization of a topological quasienergy band structure with ultracold atoms in a periodically driven optical square lattice. It is based on a circular lattice shaking in the presence of a superlattice…
Topological phases have greatly improved our understanding of modern conception of phases of matter that go beyond the paradigm of symmetry breaking and are not described by local order parameters. Instead, characterization of topological…
We investigate the properties of a two-dimensional quasicrystal in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. In this configuration, the density of states (DOS) displays a Hofstadter butterfly-like structure when it is represented as a…
We propose the realization of interaction-driven insulators in periodically strained monolayer graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Through extensive many-body exact diagonalization, we provide compelling evidence for…
Effects of an open surface on a magnetic Chern insulator are investigated in comparison with those of an interface to a capping magnetic layer. In magnets, an open surface often perturbs the magnetic order by a reconstruction of the…
