We theoretically demonstrate that interacting symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases can be realized with ultracold spinful bosonic atoms loaded on the lattices which have a flat band at the bottom of the band structure. Ground states…

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…
Motivated by the topologically insulating (TI) circuit of capacitors and inductors proposed and tested in arXiv:1309.0878, we present a related circuit with less elements per site. The normal mode frequency matrix of our circuit is…
We study interaction-driven quantum phases in a two-dimensional generalized Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) defined on a square lattice with inequivalent nearest-neighbor hopping, next-nearest-neighbor hopping and a staggered on-site potential.…
Atomically thin topological materials are attracting growing attention for their potential to radically transform classical and quantum electronic device concepts. Amongst them is the quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator - a two-dimensional…
Low-dimensional electronic systems have traditionally been obtained by electrostatically confining electrons, either in heterostructures or in intrinsically nanoscale materials such as single molecules, nanowires, and graphene. Recently, a…
Aharonov-Bohm (AB) caging, a special flat-band localization mechanism, has spurred great interest in different areas of physics. AB caging can be harnessed to explore the rich and exotic physics of quantum transport in flatband systems,…
Photonic topological systems, the electromagnetic analog of the topological materials in condensed matter physics, create many opportunities to design optical devices with novel properties. We present an experimental realization of the…
Coexistence of nontrivial topology and flat electronic bands in low-energy lattices provides a fertile platform for correlated quantum states. The square-octagon lattice hosts Dirac nodes and flat bands at half-filling, yet the influence of…
Flat bands play a central role in hosting emergent states of matter in many condensed matter systems, from the nascent insulating states of twisted bilayer graphene to the fractionalized excitations found in frustrated magnets and quantum…

We investigate the electronic and transport properties of topological and trivial InAs$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$ quantum dots (QDs). By considering the rapid band gap change within valence band anticrossing theory for InAs$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$, we predicted…
Braiding has attracted significant attention in physics because of its important role in describing the fundamental exchange of particles. Infusing the braiding with topological protection will make it robust against imperfections and…
Higher-order topological phases feature topologically protected boundary states in lower dimensions. Specifically, the zero-dimensional corner states are protected by the $d$th-order topology of a $d$-dimension system. In this work, we…
The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model, a prime example of a one-dimensional topologically nontrivial insulator, has been extensively studied in flat space-time. In recent times, many studies have been conducted to understand the properties…
A two-legged ladder model, one dimensional, exhibiting the parity anomaly is constructed. The model belongs to the $C$ and $CI$ symmetry classes, depending on the parameters, but, due to reflection, it exhibits topological insulation. The…
Staggered magnetic fluxes (SMF) play a crucial role in achieving Chern insulators (CIs), by which a series of CI models have been established on various lattices. In addition, SMF induced higher-order topological insulator (HOTI) in a…
The Hamiltonian for the one-dimensional SSH chain is one of the simplest Hamiltonians that supports topological states. This work considers between one and three finite SSH chains with open boundary conditions that either share a lattice…
