We discuss the topology of the parameter space of invertible phases with an onsite symmetry $G$, i.e., quantum many-body ground states that have neither fractionalization nor spontaneous breaking of the symmetry. The classification of…

Higher-order topological phases (HOTPs) feature protected gapless modes on boundaries of higher codimension, such as the corners or hinges of a crystal. They are understood as being protected by lattice symmetries: If the latter are broken,…

Symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases are short-range entangled quantum states characterized by anomalous edge behavior, a manifestation of the bulk-boundary correspondence for topological phases. Moreover, the Li-Haldane conjecture…

Topological photonics started out as a pursuit to engineer systems that mimic fermionic single-particle Hamiltonians with symmetry-protected modes, whose number can only change in spectral phase transitions such as band inversions. The…

We introduce a novel class of interaction-enabled topological crystalline insulators in two- and three-dimensional electronic systems, which we call "topological crystalline magnet." It is protected by the product of the time-reversal…

We show that for large coupling delays the synchronizability of delay-coupled networks of identical units relates in a simple way to the spectral properties of the network topology. The master stability function used to determine stability…

In this paper, we study synchronization in the delayed discrete-time complex networks. Several criterions of synchronization stability for such networks are established. And illustrative examples are presented. The numerical simulations…

Distributed antennas must be phase-calibrated (phase-synchronized) for certain operations, such as reciprocity-based joint coherent downlink beamforming, to work. We use rigorous signal processing tools to analyze the accuracy of…

In this study, we investigate the optical properties of linear and nonlinear topological in-phase, out-of-phase, and edge modes in a defected dimer lattice with fourth-order diffraction, encompassing their bifurcation characteristics,…

The study of topology in solids is undergoing a renaissance following renewed interest in the properties of ferroic domain walls as well as recent discoveries regarding topological insulators and skyrmionic lattices. Each of these systems…

The topologically protected transport of colloidal particles on top of magnetic patterns of all possible single lattice constant two dimensional magnetic point group symmetries is studied experimentally, theoretically, and with numerical…

Topological photonics has recently emerged as a very general framework for the design of unidirectional edge waveguides immune to back-scattering and deformations, as well as other platforms that feature extreme nonreciprocal wave…

The influence of topological defects on phase synchronization and phase coherence in two-dimensional arrays of locally-coupled, nonidentical, chaotic oscillators is investigated. The motion of topological defects leads to a breakdown of…

Motivated by the recent discovery of higher-order topological insulators, we study their counterparts in strongly interacting bosons: `higher-order symmetry protected topological (HOSPT) phases'. While the usual (1st-order) SPT phases in d…

Topological phases stabilized by crystalline point group symmetry protection are a large class of symmetry-protected topological phases subjected to considerable experimental scrutiny. Here, we show that the canonical three-dimensional (3D)…

Conformal defects -- extended objects in conformal field theories -- carry localised excitations inherited from symmetry currents, known as the displacements and tilts. They capture the linear response of the defect to deformations of its…

We demonstrate that rotation symmetry is not a necessary requirement for the existence of fractional corner charges in Cn-symmetric higher-order topological crystalline insulators. Instead, it is sufficient to have a latent rotation…

We examine the interplay of symmetry and topological order in $2+1$ dimensional topological phases of matter. We present a definition of the \it topological symmetry \rm group, which characterizes the symmetry of the emergent topological…

Symmetry plays an important role in the topological band theory to remedy the eigenstates' gauge obstruction at the cost of a symmetry anomaly and zero-energy boundary modes. One can also make use of the symmetry to enumerate the…

We study topological systems with both a chiral and a spatial symmetry which result in an additional spatial chiral symmetry. We distinguish the topologically nontrivial states according to the chiral symmetries protecting them and study…
