The honeycomb lattice sets the basic arena for numerous ideas to implement electronic, photonic, or phononic topological bands in (meta-)materials. Novel opportunities to manipulate Dirac electrons in graphene through band engineering arise…
We show that a superlattice potential can be employed to engineer topology in massive Dirac fermions in systems such as bilayer graphene, moir\'e graphene-boron nitride, and transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers and bilayers. We…

Gyroscopic metamaterials --- mechanical structures composed of interacting spinning tops --- have recently been found to support one-way topological edge excitations. In these structures, the time reversal symmetry breaking that enables…
We propose a programmable platform for engineering topological flat minibands by imposing a tunable electrostatic superlattice potential on a Rashba spin-orbit-coupled thin film subject to a Zeeman field. The interplay between the…

We demonstrate the realization of topological band structures by exploiting the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling of dipolar interactions in combination with broken time-reversal symmetry. The system is based on polar molecules trapped in a…
We develop a robust, non-perturbative approach to study the band structure of artificial graphene. Artificial graphene, as considered here, is generated by imposing a superlattice structure on top of a two dimensional hole gas in a…
Though symmetry-based indicators formulae are powerful in diagnosing topological states with a gapped band structure at/between any high-symmetry points, it fails in diagnosing topological degeneracies when the compatibility condition is…
Topological flat bands, such as the band in twisted bilayer graphene, are becoming a promising platform to study topics such as correlation physics, superconductivity, and transport. In this work, we introduce a generic approach to…
We investigate realizations of topological insulators with spin-1 bosons loaded in a honeycomb optical lattice and subjected to a $SU(3)$ spin-orbit coupling - a situation which can be realized experimentally using cold atomic gases. In…
Periodic stacking of topologically trivial and non-trivial layers with opposite symmetry of the valence and conduction bands induces topological interface states that, in the strong coupling limit, hybridize both across the topological and…
We consider twisted bilayer graphene on a transition metal dichalcogenide substrate, where proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling significantly alters the eight flat bands which occur near the magic angle. The resulting band structure…
Although the richness of spatial symmetries has led to a rapidly expanding inventory of possible topological crystalline (TC) phases of electrons, physical realizations have been slow to materialize due to the practical difficulty to…
