The emergence of topologically non-trivial flat bands in moir\'e materials provides an opportunity to explore the interplay between topological physics and correlation effects, leading to the recent experimental realization of interacting…

Moir\'e heterobilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) emerge as an ideal system for simulating the single-band Hubbard model and interesting correlated phases have been observed in these systems. Nevertheless, the moir\'e bands in…

Topological flat bands at the Fermi level offer a promising platform to study a variety of intriguing correlated phase of matter. Here we present band engineering in the twisted orbital-active bilayers with spin-orbit coupling. The symmetry…

Moir\'e transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials provide an ideal playground for studying the combined interplay of strong interactions and band-topology over a range of electronic fillings. Here we investigate the panoply of…

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…

Based on ab initio calculations, we predict that a monolayer of Cr-doped (Bi,Sb)2Te3 and GdI2 heterostructure is a quantum anomalous Hall insulator with a non-trivial band gap up to 38 meV. The principle behind our prediction is that the…

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…

Conventional theories for Mott insulators involve well-localized electronic orbitals. This picture fails in the presence of topological obstructions in Chern bands which prevent the formation of exponentially localized orbitals and are…

At partial filling of a flat band, strong electronic interactions may favor gapped states harboring emergent topology with quantized Hall conductivity. Emergent topological states have been found in partially filled Landau levels and…

A $t_{2g}^5$ system with a honeycomb lattice structure such as Na$_2$IrO$_3$ was firstly proposed as a topological insulator even though Na$_2$IrO$_3$ and its isostructural materials in nature have been turned out to be a Mott insulator…

Multi-orbital electronic models hosting a non-trivial band-topology in the regime of strong electronic interactions are an ideal playground for exploring a host of complex phenomenology. We consider here a sign-problem-free and…

We explore the emergence of topological phases in moir\'{e} MoTe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayer, highlighting the crucial role of spin-orbit coupling and Coulomb interactions at two holes per moir\'e unit cell \(v = 2\). Our analysis uncovers robust…

Electron correlation and topology are two central threads of modern condensed matter physics. Semiconductor moir\'e materials provide a highly tunable platform for studies of electron correlation. Correlation-driven phenomena, including the…

The possibility of realizing topological insulators by spontaneous formation of electronic superstructure is theoretically investigated in a minimal two-orbital model including both the spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations on a…

Topological insulators (TIs) are promising for achieving dissipationless transport devices due to the robust gapless states inside the insulating bulk gap. However, currently realized 2D TIs, quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators, suffer from…

We construct a minimal four-band model for the two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators and quantum anomalous Hall insulators based on the $p_x$- and $p_y$-orbital bands in the honeycomb lattice. The multiorbital structure allows the…

We investigate a square-lattice architecture of superconducting transmon qubits with inter-qubit interactions mediated by inductive couplers. Therein, the inductive couling between the qubit and couplers is suggested to be designed into the…

We investigate an experimental toy-model system of a pseudospin-half square-lattice Hubbard Hamiltonian in [(SrIrO3)1/(CaTiO3)1] to include both nontrivial complex hopping and moderate electronic correlation. While the former induces…

Moir\'e semiconductors offer flat bands where Coulomb interactions and band topology intertwine, while interlayer coupling plays a central role in forming the moir\'e potential. However, limited interlayer coupling strength and the lack of…

Recently, the quantum spin-Hall edge channels of two-dimensional colloidal nanocrystals of the topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ were observed directly. Motivated by this development, we reconsider the four-band effective model which has…
