The topological Anderson and Mott insulators are two phases that have so far been separately and widely explored beyond topological band insulators. Here we combine the two seemingly different topological phases into a system of spin-1/2…
Electronic topological insulators are one of the breakthroughs of the 21st century condensed matter physics. So far, the search for a light counterpart of an electronic topological insulator has remained elusive. This is due to the…
The prediction of non-trivial topological phases in Bloch insulators in three dimensions has recently been experimentally verified. Here, I provide a picture for obtaining the $Z_{2}$ invariants for a three dimensional topological insulator…
The electronic ground state of a three-dimensional (3D) band insulator with time-reversal ($\Theta$) symmetry or time-reversal times a discrete translation ($\Theta T_{1/2}$) symmetry is classified by a $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-valued topological…
Our understanding of topological insulators is based on an underlying crystalline lattice where the local electronic degrees of freedom at different sites hybridize with each other in ways that produce nontrivial band topology, and the…
We demonstrate that interacting electrons in AB-stacked $\mathrm{MoTe}_2/\mathrm{WSe}_2$ realize a topological Kondo insulator at hole filling $\nu=2$ per moir\'e unit cell. In the presence of only local correlations, a symmetry of the…
The classification of topological states of matter depends on spatial dimension and symmetry class. For non-interacting topological insulators and superconductors the topological classification is obtained systematically and nontrivial…
We demonstrate, both theoretically and experimentally, the concept of non-linear second-order topological insulators, a class of bulk insulators with quantized Wannier centers and a bulk polarization directly controlled by the level of…
While free fermion topological crystalline insulators have been largely classified, the analogous problem in the strongly interacting case has been only partially solved. In this paper, we develop a characterization and classification of…
Second-order topological insulators are crystalline insulators with a gapped bulk and gapped crystalline boundaries, but topologically protected gapless states at the intersection of two boundaries. Without further spatial symmetries, five…
We apply ideas from $C^*$-algebra to the study of disordered topological insulators. We extract certain almost commuting matrices from the free Fermi Hamiltonian, describing band projected coordinate matrices. By considering topological…
In this work, we identify a new class of Z2 topological insulator protected by non-symmorphic crystalline symmetry, dubbed a "topological non-symmorphic crystalline insulator". We construct a concrete tight-binding model with the…
Topological insulators in three spatial dimensions are known to possess a precise bulk/boundary correspondence, in that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the 5 classes characterized by bulk topological invariants and Dirac…
Certain insulating materials with strong spin-orbit coupling can conduct currents along their edges or surfaces. This phenomenon arises from the non-trivial topological properties of the electronic band-structure, and is somewhat similar to…
We analyze the phase diagram of a topological insulator model including antiferromagnetic interactions in the form of an extended Su-Schrieffer Heeger model. To this end, we employ a recently introduced operational definition of topological…
We report results from a systematic analytic strong-coupling expansion of the Bose-Hubbard model in one and two spatial dimensions. We obtain numerically exact results for the dispersion of single particle and single hole excitations in the…
To describe the interactions in magnetically soft particle systems either numerical full-field methods or dipole models are used. Whereas the former are computationally challenging, simple dipole interactions are largely underestimating the…
We investigate a topological switch between second-order topological insulators (SOTIs) and topological crystalline insulators (TCIs). Both the SOTI and the TCI are protected by the mirror and inversion symmetries, for which we define the…
We propose magnetic second-order topological insulators (SOTIs). First, we study a three-dimensional model. It is pointed out that the previously proposed topological hinge insulator has actually surface states along the [001] direction in…
Topological insulators are new quantum states with helical gapless edge or surface states inside the bulk band gap.These topological surface states are robust against the weak time-reversal invariant perturbations, such as lattice…
