We study the quantum phase transition (QPT) in a non-Hermitian Tavis-Cummings (TC) model of experimentally accessible parameters, which is engineered with two drive fields applied to an ensemble of two-level systems (TLSs) and a cavity,…
The gapped symmetric phase of the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) model exhibits fractionalized spins at the ends of an open chain. We show that breaking SU(2) symmetry and applying a global spin-lowering dissipator achieves…
It has been shown that the L-type bosonic symmetry-protected-trivial (SPT) phases with pure gauge anomalous boundary can all be realized via non-linear $\sigma$-models (NL$\sigma$Ms) of the symmetry group $G$ with various topological terms.…
Symmetry-protected trivial (SPt) phases of matter are the product-state analogue of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases. This means, SPt phases can be adiabatically connected to a product state by some path that preserves the…
We use the ideas behind the duality web to construct numerous conformal field theories mediating the phase transitions between various symmetry broken and topological phases. In particular we obtain the full field theory version of the…
Two-dimensional topological insulators protected by nonlocal symmetries or with fragile topology usually do not admit robust in-gap edge modes due to the incompatibility between the symmetry and the boundary. Here, we show that in a…
A wide variety of higher-order symmetry protected topological phase(HOSPT) with gapless corners or hinges had been proposed as a descendant of topological crystalline insulator protected by spatial symmetry. In this work, we address a new…
Lattice non-invertible symmetries have rich fusion structures and play important roles in understanding various exotic topological phases. In this paper, we explore methods to generate new lattice non-invertible transformations/symmetries…
We present a novel class of topological insulators, termed the Takagi topological insulators (TTIs), which is protected by the sublattice symmetry and spacetime inversion ($\mathcal P\mathcal T$) symmetry. The required symmetries for the…
Conventionally the occurrence of topological phase transitions (TPTs) requires gap closing, whereas there are also unconventional cases without need of gap closing. Although traditionally TPTs lie in many-body systems in condensed matter,…
Decoherence in realistic quantum platforms motivates a mixed-state notion of topological phases of matter, including average symmetry-protected topological (ASPT) phases. Alongside this progress, generalized symmetries--notably…
Symmetry-protected topological phases have been a central theme in condensed matter physics and beyond over the past two decades. Most efforts have focused on topological classifications of physical systems under given symmetries, while the…
We consider symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in 2D protected by linear subsystem symmetries, i.e. those that act along rigid lines. There is a distinction between a "strong" subsystem SPT phase, and a "weak" one, which is…
The classification and construction of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases have been intensively studied in interacting systems recently. To our surprise, in interacting fermion systems, there exists a new class of the so-called…
We show that sharply defined topological quantum phase transitions are not limited to states of matter with gapped electronic spectra. Such transitions may also occur between two gapless metallic states both with extended Fermi surfaces.…
We introduce a systematic construction of a gapless symmetry protected topological phase in one dimension by "decorating" the domain walls of Luttinger liquids. The resulting strongly interacting phases provide a concrete example of a…
Matrix Product States (MPSs) provide a powerful framework to study and classify gapped quantum phases --symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases in particular--defined in one dimensional lattices. On the other hand, it is natural to…
The concept of gapped symmetry-protected topological (SPT) states has been generalized to gapless SPT (gSPT) states. Similar to gapped SPT states, gSPT states in one dimension exhibit universal degeneracies in their entanglement spectra.…
Spurred by recent development of fracton topological phases, unusual topological phases possessing fractionalized quasi-particles with mobility constraints, the concept of symmetries has been renewed. In particular, in accordance with the…
The subject of this paper is the phase transition between symmetry protected topological states (SPTs). We consider spatial dimension $d$ and symmetry group $G$ so that the cohomology group, $H^{d+1}(G,U(1))$, contains at least one $Z_{2n}$…
