Topologically gapless edge states, characterized by topological invariants and Berry's phases of bulk energy bands, provide amazing techniques to robustly control the reflectionless propagation of electrons, photons and phonons. Recently, a…
Topological corner states are exotic topological boundary states that are bounded to zero-dimensional geometry even the dimension of systems is large than one. As an elegant physical correspondence, their numbers are dictated by the bulk…

Long-range interactions (LRIs) are ubiquitous in nature. Higher-order topological (HOT) insulator represents a new phase of matter. A critical issue is how LRI dictates the HOT phases. In this work, we discover four topologically distinct…
