We obtain the band structure of a particle moving in a magnetic spin texture, classified by its chirality and structure factor, in the presence of spin-orbit coupling. This rich interplay leads to a variety of novel topological phases…
We consider a family of twisted graphene multilayers consisting of $n$-untwisted chirally stacked layers, e.g., AB, ABC, etc, with a single twist on top of $m$-untwisted {chirally stacked} layers. Upon neglecting both trigonal warping terms…
We devise local lattice models whose ground states are model fractional Chern insulators---Abelian and non-Abelian topologically ordered states characterized by exact ground state degeneracies at any finite size and infinite entanglement…
As lattice analogs of fractional quantum Hall systems, fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) exhibit enigmatic physical properties resulting from the intricate interplay between single-body and many-body physics. In particular, the design of…
We present a microscopic theory for the local (single site) orbital magnetization in tight-binding systems. Each occupied state of energy $\varepsilon_n$ contributes with a local orbital magnetic moment term ${\mathbf{ m}}_n({\mathbf{ r}})$…
The presence of topological edge modes at the interface of two perturbed honeycomb photonic crystals with $C_6$ symmetry is often attributed to the different signs of Berry curvature at the K and K$'$ valleys. In contrast to the electronic…
Vortex magnetic structure in artificial honeycomb lattice provides a unique platform to explore emergent properties due to the additional Berry phase curvature imparted by chiral magnetization to circulating electrons via direct…
We propose models of twisted multilayer graphene that exhibit exactly flat Bloch bands with arbitrary Chern numbers and ideal band geometries. The models are constructed by twisting two sheets of Bernal-stacked multiple graphene layers with…
Topological insulators are substances which are bulk insulators but which carry current via special "topologically protected" edge states. The understanding of long range topological order in these systems is built around the idea of a…
Quantum metrology is deeply connected to quantum geometry, through the fundamental notion of quantum Fisher information. Inspired by advances in topological matter, it was recently suggested that the Berry curvature and Chern numbers of…
The theoretical identification of crystalline topological materials has enjoyed sustained success in simplified materials models, often by singling out discrete symmetry operations protecting the topological phase. When band structure…
The interaction between strong correlation and Berry curvature is an open territory of in the field of quantum materials. Here we report large anomalous Hall conductivity in a Kondo lattice ferromagnet USbTe which is dominated by intrinsic…
Flat bands provide a natural platform for emergent electronic states beyond Landau paradigm. Among those of particular importance are flat Chern bands, including bands of higher Chern numbers ($C$$>$$1$). We introduce a new framework for…
We construct a two-band lattice model whose bands can carry the Chern numbers C=0,pm1,pm2. By means of numerical exact diagonalization, we show that the most favorable situation that selects fractional Chern insulators (FCIs) is not…
Recent experiments on bilayer graphene twisted near the magic angle have observed spontaneous integer quantum Hall states in the presence of an aligned hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) substrate. These states arise from valley ferromagnetism,…
Narrow band electron systems are particularly likely to exhibit correlated many-body phases driven by interaction effects. Examples include magnetic materials, heavy fermion systems, and topological phases such as fractional quantum Hall…
We theoretically explore the dynamics of spatial solitons in nonlinear/interacting bosonic topological insulators. We employ a time-reversal broken Lieb-lattice analog of a Chern insulator and find that in the presence of a saturable…
Valley photonics has emerged as a promising platform in topological photonic systems, yet the topological nature of valley-dependent phenomena remains unsettled. Theoretically, inter-valley scattering may occur with structural…
Recent developments in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) physics highlight the importance of studying FQH phases of particles partially occupying energy bands that are not Landau levels. FQH phases in the regime of strong lattice effects,…
Two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures can be engineered into artificial superlattices that host flat bands with significant Berry curvature and provide a favorable environment for the emergence of novel electron dynamics. In…
