Flat band (FB) systems provide ideal playgrounds for studying correlation physics, whereas multi-orbital characteristics in real materials are distinguished from most simple FB models. Here, we propose a systematic and versatile framework…
In this work, we explore topological phases of matter obtained by effectively gauging or fermionizing a system, where the Gauss law constraint is only enforced energetically. In contrast to conventional gauging or fermionization, the…
We introduce the notion of algebraic higher symmetry, which generalizes higher symmetry and is beyond higher group. We show that an algebraic higher symmetry in a bosonic system in $n$-dimensional space is characterized and classified by a…
Deconstruction is a powerful means to explore the rich dynamics of gauge theories in four and higher dimensions. We demonstrate that gauge symmetry breaking in a compactified higher dimensional theory can be formulated via deconstructed 4D…
We show that a generalized charge SU(2) symmetry of the one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model in an infinitesimal flux $\phi$ generates half-filling states from metallic states which lead to a finite charge stiffness $D(T)$ at finite…
Most of the known non-invertible symmetries of quantum field theories in three and four spacetime dimensions act invertibly on local operators. An exception is coset symmetries, which can be constructed from gauging a non-normal subgroup of…
In a one-dimensional lattice, the induced metric (from a noncommutative geometry calculation) breaks translation invariance. This leads to some inconsistencies among different spectator frames, in the observation of the hoppings of a test…
Higher-order topological insulators are a recently discovered class of materials that can possess zero-dimensional localized states regardless of the dimension of the lattice. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that the topological…
We investigate higher-order asymptotic symmetries for a $p$-form gauge field in $(p + 2)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, where Hodge duality with a scalar holds. Employing symplectic renormalization, we identify $N + 1$ independent…
We construct (2+1)-dimensional lattice systems, which we call fusion surface models. These models have finite non-invertible symmetries described by general fusion 2-categories. Our method can be applied to build microscopic models with,…
We present a solvable Hamiltonian that realizes an exact lattice chiral $U(1)_V \times U(1)_A$ symmetry. Nielsen-Ninomiya-type no-go theorems are evaded by using lattice bosons rather than fermions. The continuum limit is a compact boson…
It is sometimes desirable in choiceless constructions of set theory that one iteratively extends some ground model without adding new sets of ordinals after the first extension. Pushing this further, one may wish to have models $V \subseteq…
We consider systems in which a continuous symmetry $G$, which may be anomalous, is spontaneously broken to an anomaly-free subgroup $H$ such that the effective action for the Goldstone modes contains topologically non-trivial terms. If the…
An interesting application of the gauge/gravity duality to condensed matter physics is the description of a lattice via breaking translational invariance on the gravity side. By making use of global symmetries, it is possible to do so…
Symmetry breaking of continuous symmetries by extended dynamical defects entails the existence of defect families, which form conformal manifolds in a critical setup. In the presence of bulk 't Hooft anomalies, defects are in fact required…
High temperature is usually expected to destroy order: as the Gibbs state approaches the infinite-temperature limit, it becomes an equal-weight ensemble over all states and the system is generically disordered. Recent works showed that…
We show that the Hilbert space of physical states on a pure $Z_2$ gauge lattice in $1 + 1$ and $2 + 1$ dimensions is geometrically separable if the fundamental physical degrees of freedom are taken to be the plaquettes. This results in a…
We study properties of boundary conditions (BCs) in theories with categorical (or non-invertible) symmetries. We describe how the transformation properties, or (generalized) charges, of BCs are captured by topological BCs of Symmetry…
We study the underlying symmetry in a spin-orbit coupled tight-binding model with Hubbard interaction. It is shown that, in the absence of the on-site interaction, the system possesses the SU(2) symmetry arising from the timereversal…
Dirac fermions coupled to gauge fields can exhibit the chiral anomaly even on a finite spatial lattice. A careful description of this phenomenon yields new insights into the nature of spin-charge relations and on-site symmetries (symmetries…
