Electrical currents in a quantum spin Hall insulator are confined to the boundary of the system. The charge carriers can be described as massless relativistic particles, whose spin and momentum are coupled to each other. While the helical…
A topological 'Thouless' pump represents the quantised motion of particles in response to a slow, cyclic modulation of external control parameters. The Thouless pump, like the quantum Hall effect, is of fundamental interest in physics…
Thouless pumping represents a powerful concept to probe quantized topological invariants in quantum systems. We explore this mechanism in a generalized Rice-Mele Fermi-Hubbard model characterized by the presence of competing onsite and…
Nonlinear interaction enables topological phenomena impossible in linear systems. A paradigm is nonlinear Thouless pump, where the transport of solitons can be topologically quantized even when band occupation is nonuniform. Such nonlinear…
We provide a detailed analysis of a realization of chiral gapless edge modes in the framework of the Hofstadter model of interacting electrons. In a transverse homogeneous magnetic field and a rational magnetic flux through an unit cell the…
We show that a sliding spatial modulation of the on-site Hubbard interaction realizes a many-body Thouless pump whose boundary spectral flow is reconstructed by correlations. For a period-three Hubbard chain at filling $\rho=2/3$,…
We explain how (perturbed) boundary conformal field theory allows us to understand the tunneling of edge quasiparticles in non-Abelian topological states. The coupling between a bulk non-Abelian quasiparticle and the edge is due to resonant…
Geometric properties of waves and wave functions can explain the appearance of integer-valued observables throughout physics. For example, these 'topological' invariants describe the plateaux observed in the quantised Hall effect and the…
The sharply quantized transport observed in the integer quantum Hall effect can be explained via a simple one-dimensional model with a time-periodic, adiabatically varying potential in which electronic charge is pumped from one side of the…
Topological phases and topological phase transitions (TPT) are among the most fantastic phenomena in Nature. Here we show that injecting a current may lead to new topological phases, especially new gapless topological metallic phases with…
We introduce two dimensional fermionic band models with two orbitals per lattice site, or one spinful orbital, and which have a non-zero topological Chern number that can be changed by varying the ratio of hopping parameters. A…
The arrested nanoscale phase separation in a two-band Hubbard model for strongly correlated charge carriers is shown to occur in a particular range in vicinity of the topological Lifshitz transition, where the Fermi energy crosses the…
Fractional quantum Hall-superconductor heterostructures may provide a platform towards non-abelian topological modes beyond Majoranas. However their quantitative theoretical study remains extremely challenging. We propose and implement a…
We find that in a multi-orbital system with intraorbital and interorbital hopping integrals, the Hall conductance exhibits various topological quantum phase transitions (QPTs) induced by on-site orbital polarization: integer quantum Hall…
To determine the topological quantum numbers of fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states hosting counter-propagating (CP) downstream ($N_d$) and upstream ($N_u$) edge modes, it is pivotal to study quantized transport both in the presence and…
Topological insulators are a broad class of unconventional materials that are insulating in the interior but conduct along the edges. This edge transport is topologically protected and dissipationless. Until recently, all existing…
One of the most famous quantum systems with topological properties, the spin $\mathcal{S}=1$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain, is well-known to display exotic $\mathcal{S}=1/2$ edge states. However, this spin model has not been analyzed…
The effect of spatially modulated interaction on quantum phase transition in one-dimensional interacting spinless fermion system is theoretically investigated by exact diagonalization and density matrix renormalization group method. Our…
In recent experiments with ultracold atoms, both two-dimensional (2d) Chern insulators and one-dimensional (1d) topological charge pumps have been realized. Without interactions, both systems can be described by the same Hamiltonian, when…
Topological phases supported by quasi-periodic spin-chain models and their bulk-boundary principles are investigated by numerical and K-theoretic methods. We show that, for both the un-correlated and correlated phases, the operator algebras…
