We study electron states, bound to topological textures such as skyrmions and domain walls in a N\'eel antiferromagnet. In certain limits, we find the dependence of bound states on the geometry of the texture, and estimate the bound-state…
Topological materials rely on engineering global properties of their bulk energy bands called topological invariants. These invariants, usually defined over the entire Brillouin zone, are related to the existence of protected edge states.…
Optical lattices play a versatile role in advancing our understanding of correlated quantum matter. The recent implementation of orbital degrees of freedom in chequerboard and hexagonal optical lattices opens up a new thrust towards…
A graph-theoretic method is introduced for analyzing fermion mass spectra in latticized theory-space models, including chain models arising from dimensional deconstruction. Fermion mass terms are mapped to bipartite graphs, with fields as…
We used the Cartan formalism to construct fermionic models that are compatible with Galilean or Carrollian symmetry and rigid scaling symmetry. The free Carrollian fermion model exhibits conformal Carrollian symmetry which is isomorphic to…
Moir\'e materials host a wealth of intertwined correlated and topological states of matter, all arising from flat electronic bands with nontrivial quantum geometry. A prominent example is the family of alternating-twist magic-angle graphene…
Skyrmions are topologically stable vector textures as potential information carriers for high-density data storage and communications, especially boosted by the recently emerging meta-generators of skyrmions in electromagnetic fields.…
An exact mapping of the tight-binding Hamiltonian for a graphene's nanoribbon under any armchair uniaxial strain into an effective one-dimensional system is presented. As an application, for a periodic modulation we have found a gap opening…
Lattice gauge theories are a powerful language to theoretically describe a variety of strongly correlated systems, including frustrated magnets, high-$T_c$ superconductors, and topological phases. However, in many cases gauge fields couple…
We discuss in details the electron scattering pattern on skyrmion-like magnetic textures in two-dimensional geometry. The special attention is focused on analyzing the scattering asymmetry, which is a precursor of the topological Hall…
This note relates topics in statistical mechanics, graph theory and combinatorics, lattice quantum field theory, super quantum mechanics and string theory. We give a precise relation between the dimer model on a graph embedded on a torus…
Symmetry-broken electronic phases support neutral collective excitations. For example, monolayer graphene in the quantum Hall regime hosts a nearly ideal ferromagnetic phase at filling factor $\nu=1$ that spontaneously breaks spin rotation…
Topology concepts have significantly deepened of our understanding in recent years of the electronic properties of one-dimensional (1D) nano structures such as the graphene nanoribbons. Controlling topological electronic properties of GNRs…
Graphene is a two-dimensional Dirac semimetal showing interesting properties as a result of its dispersion relation with both quasiparticles and quasiholes or matter and anti-matter. We introduce a topological nodal ring semimetal in…
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for modeling topological phases of matter using code-based Narain conformal field theories (NCFTs). We show that the algebraic structure of the NCFTs naturally embeds into critical lattice quantum…
Graphene, a two dimensional (2D) carbon sheet, acquires many of its amazing properties from the Dirac point nature of its electronic structures with negligible spin-orbit coupling. Extending to 3D space, graphene networks with negative…
We report the discovery of a thermodynamically stable skyrmion-antiskyrmion lattice in two-dimensional heterostructures, a novel state exhibiting a net-zero global topological charge owing to an equal population of skyrmions and…
We consider the lattice topological charge density introduced by Hasenfratz, Laliena and Niedermayer and propose its eigenmode expansion as a tool to investigate the structure of topological charge fluctuations in QCD. The resulting…
In this paper the mono-layer graphene at the charge neutrality point is considered whithin Thomas-Fermi-Dirac theory, treating inhomogeneous external potentials and electron-electron interactions on equal footing. We present some general…
We study a class of three dimensional exactly solvable models of topological matter first put forward by Walker and Wang [arXiv:1104.2632v2]. While these are not models of interacting fermions, they may well capture the topological behavior…
