inversion symmetry, mostly focusing on the class A of the Altland-Zirnbauer classification …

Phonon magnetic moment from electronic topological magnetization

Y Ren, C Xiao, D Saparov, Q Niu - Physical review letters, 2021 - APS
The traditional theory of magnetic moments for chiral phonons is based on the picture of the
circular motion of the Born effective charge, typically yielding a small fractional value of the …

Adiabatically induced orbital magnetization

C Xiao, Y Ren, B Xiong - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
A semiclassical theory for the orbital magnetization due to adiabatic evolutions of Bloch
electronic states is proposed. It renders a unified theory for the periodic-evolution pumped …

Filling anomaly for general two- and three-dimensional symmetric lattices

Y Fang, J Cano - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
In this paper, we derive symmetry indicator formulas for the filling anomaly on two-
dimensional (2D) C 4 symmetric square lattices with and without time reversal, inversion …

Difficulties in operator-based formulation of the bulk quadrupole moment

S Ono, L Trifunovic, H Watanabe - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
Electric multipole moments are the most fundamental properties of insulating materials.
However, the general formulation of bulk multipoles has been a long-standing problem. The …

Corner charge and bulk multipole moment in periodic systems

H Watanabe, S Ono - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
A formula for the corner charge in terms of the bulk quadrupole moment is derived for two-
dimensional periodic systems. This is an analog of the formula for the surface charge density …

Lattice dynamics with molecular Berry curvature: Chiral optical phonons

D Saparov, B Xiong, Y Ren, Q Niu - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
Under the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, the electronic ground state evolves
adiabatically and can accumulate geometrical phases characterized by the molecular Berry …

-band Hopf insulator

B Lapierre, T Neupert, L Trifunovic - Physical Review Research, 2021 - APS
We study the generalization of the three-dimensional two-band Hopf insulator to the case of
many bands, where all the bands are separated from each other by band gaps. The …

Current-induced orbital magnetization in systems without inversion symmetry

D Hara, MS Bahramy, S Murakami - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
In systems with time-reversal symmetry, the orbital magnetization is zero in equilibrium.
Recently, it has been proposed that the orbital magnetization can be induced by an electric …
