Topological phases of matter have sparked an immense amount of activity in recent decades. Topological materials are classified by topological invariants that act as a non-local order parameter for any symmetry and condition. As a result,…

The unrelated discoveries of quasicrystals and topological insulators have in turn challenged prevailing paradigms in condensed-matter physics. We find a surprising connection between quasicrystals and topological phases of matter: (i)…

With the rapid development of topological states in crystals, the study of topological states has been extended to quasicrystals in recent years. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of topological states in quasicrystals,…

We study topological states of matter in quasicrystals, which do not rely on crystalline orders. In the absence of a bandstructure description and spin-orbit coupling, we show that a three-dimensional quasicrystal can nevertheless form a…

Topological phases have been extensively studied primarily in crystalline systems with translational symmetry. Recent theoretical studies, however, have demonstrated the existence of topological phases in quasicrystals that are absent in…

We show how a large family of interacting nonequilibrium phases of matter can arise from the presence of multiple time-translation symmetries, which occur by quasiperiodically driving an isolated quantum many-body system with two or more…

We discuss systems which have some, but not all of the hallmarks of topological phases. These systems' topological character is not fully captured by a local order parameter, but they are also not fully described at low energies by…

Topological phases of matter are defined by their nontrivial patterns of ground-state quantum entanglement, which is irremovable so long as the excitation gap and the protecting symmetries, if any, are maintained. Recent studies on…

The discovery of topological phases in non-Hermitian open classical and quantum systems challenges our current understanding of topological order. Non-Hermitian systems exhibit unique features with no counterparts in topological Hermitian…

This letter reports theory of elasticity and hydrodynamics of quasicrystals with 7-, 14-, 9- and 18-fold symmetries in solid phase, in which the 6-dimensional embedding space concept is used. Based on the concept and the Landau-Anderson…

Quasicrystals are characterized by quasi-periodic arrangements of atoms. The description of their mechanics involves deformation and a (so called phason) vector field accounting at macroscopic scale of local phase changes, due to atomic…

The interplay between interactions and topology in quantum materials is of extensive current interest. Strong correlations are known to be important for insulating topological states, as exemplified by the fractional quantum Hall effect.…

Topological edge states are known to emerge in certain quasicrystals. We investigate a topological quasicrystal in the presence of nonlinearity by generalizing the Toda lattice to include modulated periodic hoppings, where the period is…

Quasicrystals lack translational symmetry, but can still exhibit long-ranged order, promoting them to candidates for unconventional physics beyond the paradigm of crystals. Here, we apply a real-space functional renormalization group…

We show that it is possible to have a topological phase in two-dimensional quasicrystals without any magnetic field applied, but instead introducing an artificial gauge field via dynamic modulation. This topological quasicrystal exhibits…

Electronic and topological properties of materials are derived from the interplay between crystalline symmetry and dimensionality. Simultaneously introducing 'forbidden' symmetries via quasiperiodic ordering with low-dimensionality into a…

A two-dimensional system of soft particles interacting via a two-length-scale potential is studied. Density functional theory and Brownian dynamics simulations reveal a fluid phase and two crystalline phases with different lattice spacing.…

Three-dimensional higher-order topological semimetals in crystalline systems exhibit higher-order Fermi arcs on one-dimensional hinges, challenging the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence. However, the existence of higher-order Fermi…

The crystal symmetry of a material dictates the type of topological band structures it may host, and therefore symmetry is the guiding principle to find topological materials. Here we introduce an alternative guiding principle, which we…

A combination of classical density-functional theory and thermodynamic perturbation theory is applied to a survey of finite-temperature trends in the relative stabilities of one-component crystals and quasicrystals interacting via effective…
