The classification of topological insulators predicts the existence of high-dimensional topological phases that cannot occur in real materials, as these are limited to three or fewer spatial dimensions. We use electric circuits to…
Topological insulators are a novel state of matter that share a common feature: their spectral bands are associated with a nonlocal integer-valued index, commonly manifesting through quantized bulk phenomena and robust boundary effects. In…
The Chern vector is a vectorial generalization of the scalar Chern number, being able to characterize the topological phase of three-dimensional (3D) Chern insulators. Such a vectorial generalization extends the applicability of Chern-type…
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…
We study a generic model of a Chern insulator supplemented by a Hubbard interaction in arbitrary even dimension $D$ and demonstrate that the model remains well-defined and nontrivial in the $D \to \infty$ limit. Dynamical mean-field theory…
The quantum Hall effect, fundamental in modern condensed matter physics, continuously inspires new theories and predicts emergent phases of matter. Here we experimentally demonstrate three types of Chern insulators with synthetic dimensions…
Topological insulators are exotic material that possess conducting surface states protected by the topology of the system. They can be classified in terms of their properties under discrete symmetries and are characterized by topological…
The concept of Chern insulators is one of the most important buliding block of topological physics, enabling the quantum Hall effect without external magnetic fields. The construction of Chern insulators has been typically through an…
We use the Dirac cone model to explore the high Chern number (C) phases that are realized in the magnetic-doped topological insulator (TI) multilayer structures by Zhao et al. [Nature 588, 419 (2020)]. The Chern number is calculated by…
We propose to use generic Chern numbers for a characterization of topological insulators. It is suitable for a numerical characterization of low dimensional quantum liquids where strong quantum fluctuations prevent from developing…
We present a theoretical study and experimental realization of a system that is simultaneously a four-dimensional (4D) Chern insulator and a higher-order topological insulator (HOTI). The system sustains the coexistence of (4-1)-dimensional…
We introduce a two-dimensional Chern insulator in proximity to a $d$-wave pseudogap state of the high-T$_c$ superconducting material as an effective platform to realize the higher order topological system. The proximity-induced…
We construct theoretical models for two dimensional(2d) chiral $d_{x^2-y^2}\pm id_{xy}$ topological superconductors and for three dimensional(3d) $d$ wave topological superconductors. Moreover we build models for any 2d class C and 3d class…
We apply the charge pumping argument to fermionic tensor network representations of d-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) to obtain tensor network states for (d+1)-dimensional TIs. We exemplify the method by constructing a…
We show that topological characterization and classification in $D$-dimensional systems, which are thermodynamically large in only $D-\delta$ dimensions and finite in size in $\delta$ dimensions, is fundamentally different from that of…
Higher order topological insulators are a new class of topological insulators in dimensions $\rm d>1$. These higher-order topological insulators possess $\rm (d - 1)$-dimensional boundaries that, unlike those of conventional topological…
An exhaustive classification scheme of topological insulators and superconductors is presented. The key property of topological insulators (superconductors) is the appearance of gapless degrees of freedom at the interface/boundary between a…
Two-dimensional 2-bands insulators breaking time reversal symmetry can present topological phases indexed by a topological invariant called the Chern number. Here we first propose an efficient procedure to determine this topological index.…
Higher-order topological insulators, as a novel family of topological phases, are a hot frontier in condensed matter physics due to their adherence to unconventional bulk-boundary correspondence. A three-dimensional second-order topological…
Topological phases of matter have been extensively studied for their intriguing bulk and edge properties. Recently, higher-order topological insulators with boundary states that are two or more dimensions lower than the bulk states, have…
