We calculate the mirror Chern number (MCN) and the band gap for the alloy Pb1-xSnxSe as a function of the concentration x by using virtual crystalline approximation. We use the electronic structure from the relativistic density functional…
SmB6 was recently proposed to be both a strong topological insulator and a topological crystalline insulator. For this and related cubic topological Kondo insulators, we prove the existence of four different topological phases,…
We present an ab initio analysis of a continuous Hamiltonian that maps into the celebrated Haldane model. The tunnelling coefficients of the tight-binding model are computed by means of two independent methods - one based on the maximally…
Different topological phases of quantum systems has become areas of increased focus in recent decades. In particular, the question of how to realize and manipulate systems with non-trivial first Chern number is pursued both experimentally…
We perform systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopic measurements on the lead tin telluride Pb1-xSnxTe pseudobinary alloy system. We show that the (001) crystalline surface, which is a crystalline surface symmetric about the…
The change in the composition of Pb$_{1-x}$Sn$_x$Te IV-VI semiconductor or in its lattice parameter can drive a transition from the topologically trivial to the topological crystalline insulator (TCI), crossing a region where the alloy is…
We study topological phase transitions in tetragonal NaZnSb$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$, driven by the chemical composition $x$. Notably, we examine mirror Chern numbers that change without symmetry indicators. First-principles calculations are performed…
Whereas SnTe is a inverted band gap topological crystalline insulator, the topological phase of the alloy Sn_{1-x}In_xTe, a topological superconductor candidate, has not been clearly studied so far. Our calculations show that the…
We report the evolution of the surface electronic structure and surface material properties of a topological crystalline insulator (TCI) Pb1-xSnxSe as a function of various material parameters including composition x, temperature T and…
Pb1-xSnxSe hosts 3D massive Dirac fermions across the entire composition range for which the crystal structure is cubic. In this work, we present a comprehensive experimental mapping of the 3D band structure parameters of Pb1-xSnxSe as a…
Symmetry plays a key role in classifying topological phases. Recent theory shows that in the presence of gauge fields, the algebraic structure of crystalline symmetries needs to be projectively represented, which enables unprecedented…
We investigate strong coupling topological superconductivity in twisted moir\'e bilayer WSe$_2$. Our approach is based on an effective $t$-$J$ model with displacement-field-dependent complex hoppings, which is treated with the variational…
We discuss the topological phase transition of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fermionic Haldane model with repulsive on-site interaction. We show that the Berry curvature of the topological Hamiltonian, the first Chern number, and the topological…
We study topological phase transitions in three-dimensional odd-parity or noncentrosymmetric superconductors with mirror symmetry when time-reversal symmetry is broken. We construct a generic phase diagram for Weyl superconductivity in the…
We present an algorithm to determine topological invariants of inhomogeneous systems, such as alloys, disordered crystals, or amorphous systems. Based on the kernel polynomial method, our algorithm allows us to study samples with more than…
The average and local structures of the (PbTe)1-x(PbS)x system of thermoelectric materials has been studied using the Rietveld and atomic pair distribution function (PDF) methods. Samples with 0:25 < x are macroscopically phase separated.…
Following the identification of the pi bond in graphene, in this work, a pi bond constructed through side-to-side overlap of half-filled 6pz orbitals was observed in a non-carbon crystal of Pb1-xSnxSe (x=0.34) (PSS), a prototype topological…
It is quite intriguing to investigate the transition from a topological insulator (TI) phase to topological crystalline insulator (TCI) phase in a material as the latter has an advantage over the former in controlled device applications.…
We determine the quantum phase diagram of the Hubbard chain with electron-hole symmetric correlated hopping at 1/2- and 1/4-filling using geometric concepts and continuum limit field theory. The long distance behavior of various correlation…
We present a complete topological characterization of a bilayer composite of two Chern insulators (specifically, Haldane models) and explicitly establish the bulk-boundary correspondences. We show that an appropriately defined Chern number…
