Floquet topological phases with fourfold-degenerate edge modes in a driven spin-1/2 Creutz ladder

L Zhou, Q Du - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
Floquet engineering has the advantage of generating new phases with large topological
invariants and many edge states by simple driving protocols. In this work, we propose an …

Non-Hermitian Floquet phases with even-integer topological invariants in a periodically quenched two-leg ladder

local perturbations. Compared with Majorana zero modes, braiding of parafermions …

From quantum wires to the Chern-Simons description of the fractional quantum Hall effect

WB Fontana, PRS Gomes, CA Hernaski - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
