Topological order has become a new paradigm to distinguish ground states of interacting many-body systems without conventional long-range order. Here we discuss possible extensions of this concept to density matrices describing statistical…
Topologically protected corner states serve as a key indicator for two-dimensional higher-order topological insulators, yet they have not been experimentally identified in realistic materials. Here, by utilizing the effective tight-binding…
Topologically protected gapless edge/surface states are phases of quantum matter which behave as massless Dirac fermions, immunizing against disorders and continuous perturbations. Recently, a new class of topological insulators (TIs) with…
Topological insulators with unique gapless edge states have revolutionized the understanding of electronic properties in solid materials. These gapless edge states are dictated by the topological invariants associated with the quantization…
We find a series of topological phase transitions of increasing order, beyond the more standard second-order phase transition in a one-dimensional topological superconductor. The jumps in the order of the transitions depend on the range of…
Recently discovered photonic higher-order topological insulators enable unprecedented flexibility in the robust localization of light in structures of different dimensionality. While the potential of the two-dimensional systems is currently…
We investigate the emergence of a myriad of phases in the strong coupling regime of the dipolar Hubbard model in two dimensions. By using a combination of numerically unbiased methods in finite systems with analytical perturbative…
Higher order topological insulators (HOTI) have emerged as a new class of phases, whose robust in-gap "corner" modes arise from the bulk higher-order multipoles beyond the dipoles in conventional topological insulators. Here, we incorporate…
We introduce higher-order topological Dirac superconductor (HOTDSC) as a new gapless topological phase of matter in three dimensions, which extends the notion of Dirac phase to a higher-order topological version. Topologically distinct from…
The key to unraveling the nature of high-temperature superconductivity (HTS) lies in resolving the enigma of the pseudogap state. The pseudogap state in the underdoped region is a distinct thermodynamic phase characterized by nematicity,…
Continuum grid-like frames composed of rigidly jointed beams are classic subjects in the field of structural mechanics, whose topological dynamical properties have only recently been revealed. For two-dimensional frames, higher-order…
Topological systems are inherently robust to disorder and continuous perturbations, resulting in dissipation-free edge transport of electrons in quantum solids, or reflectionless guiding of photons and phonons in classical wave systems…
Topological phases are often characterized by special edge states confined near the boundaries by an energy gap in the bulk. On raising temperature, these edge states are lost in a clean system due to mobile thermal excitations. Recently…
Topology in condensed matter physics manifests itself in the emergence of edge or surface states protected by underlying symmetries. We review two-dimensional topological insulators whose one-dimensional edge states are characterized by…
Higher-order topological phases give rise to new bulk and boundary physics, as well as new classes of topological phase transitions. While the realization of higher-order topological phases has been confirmed in many platforms by detecting…
Over the past decades, high-harmonic spectroscopy (HHS) has emerged as a powerful tool for all-optical probing of topological properties of solids. There are outstanding questions regarding universal nature of the spectral features of…
In two dimensions, Hermitian lattices with non-zero Chern numbers and non-Hermitian lattices with a higher-order skin effect (HOSE) bypass the constraints of the Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem at their one-dimensional boundaries. This…
Topological insulators are electronic materials that have a bulk band gap like an ordinary insulator, but have protected conducting states on their edge or surface. The 2D topological insulator is a quantum spin Hall insulator, which is a…
Higher-order topological states that possess gapped bulk energy bands and exotic topologically protected boundary states with at least two dimension lower than the bulk have significantly opened a new perspective for understanding of…
In this work, we present a collection of three-dimensional higher-order symmetry protected topological phases (HOSPTs) with gapless hinge modes that exist only in strongly interacting systems subject to subsystem symmetry constraints. We…
