Su (3) topology of magnon-phonon hybridization in 2d antiferromagnets

S Zhang, G Go, KJ Lee, SK Kim - Physical review letters, 2020 - APS
Magnon-phonon hybrid excitations are studied theoretically in a two-dimensional
antiferromagnet with an easy axis normal to the plane. We show that two magnon bands and …

Berry curvature and quantum metric in -band systems: An eigenprojector approach

A Graf, F Piéchon - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
The eigenvalues of a parameter-dependent Hamiltonian matrix form a band structure in
parameter space. In such N-band systems, the quantum geometric tensor (QGT), consisting …

Topological phases of polaritons in a cavity waveguide

CA Downing, TJ Sturges, G Weick, M Stobińska… - Physical Review Letters, 2019 - APS
We study the unconventional topological phases of polaritons inside a cavity waveguide,
demonstrating how strong light-matter coupling leads to a breakdown of the bulk-edge …

Band structure engineering of ideal fractional Chern insulators

CH Lee, M Claassen, R Thomale - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
As lattice analogs of fractional quantum Hall systems, fractional Chern insulators (FCIs)
exhibit enigmatic physical properties resulting from the intricate interplay between single …

Nested-sphere description of the -level Chern number and the generalized Bloch hypersphere

CJD Kemp, NR Cooper, FN Ünal - Physical Review Research, 2022 - APS
The geometric interpretation of (pseudo) spin-1/2 systems on the Bloch sphere has been

Band flatness optimization through complex analysis

CH Lee, DP Arovas, R Thomale - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
Narrow-band electron systems are particularly likely to exhibit correlated many-body phases
driven by interaction effects. Examples include magnetic materials, heavy-fermion systems …

Topology and entanglement in quench dynamics

PY Chang - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We classify the topology of the quench dynamics by homotopy groups. A relation between
the topological invariant of a postquench order parameter and the topological invariant of a …

Computing observables without eigenstates: Applications to Bloch Hamiltonians

O Pozo, F de Juan - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
Calculating the observables of a Hamiltonian requires taking matrix elements of operators in
the eigenstate basis. Since eigenstates are only defined up to arbitrary phases that depend …

Magnetic-field-induced spin crossover of Y-doped

A Ikeda, S Lee, TT Terashima, YH Matsuda… - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
The family of hole-doped Pr-based perovskite cobaltites, Pr 0.5 Ca 0.5 CoO 3 and (Pr 1− y
RE y) 0.3 Ca 0.7 CoO 3 (where RE is rare earth), has recently been found to exhibit …

Route towards localization for quantum anomalous Hall systems with Chern number 2

ZG Song, YY Zhang, JT Song, SS Li - Scientific reports, 2016 - nature.com
The quantum anomalous Hall system with Chern number 2 can be destroyed by sufficiently
strong disorder. During its process towards localization, it was found that the electronic …
