Colloquium: Topological Insulators
Topological insulators are electronic materials that have a bulk band gap like an ordinary insulator but have protected conducted states on their edge or surface. These states are possible due to the combination of spinorbit interactions and time-reversal symmetry. The two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator is a quantum spin Hall insulator, which is a close cousin of the integer quantum Hal...
متن کاملColloquium on Mathemathical Music Theory
The article studies the topos Sets of actions of an 8-element monoid T on sets. It is called the triadic topos as T is isomorphic to the monoid of affine transformations of the twelve tone system Z12, leaving a given major or minor triad invariant. The subobject classifier Ω of this topos and its Lawvere-TierneyTopologies j are calculated. We explore the characteristic functions of the restrict...
متن کاملModern temporal network theory: A colloquium
The power of any kind of network approach lies in the ability to simplify a complex system so that one can better understand its function as a whole. Sometimes it is beneficial, however, to include more information than in a simple graph of only nodes and links. Adding information about times of interactions can make predictions and mechanistic understanding more accurate. The drawback, however...
متن کاملColloquium: An introduction to consistent quantum theory
This paper presents an elementary introduction to consistent quantum theory, as developed by Griffiths and others over the past 25 years. The theory is a version of orthodox Copenhagen quantum mechanics based on the notion that the unique and mysterious feature of quantum, as opposed to classical systems, is the simultaneous existence of multiple incompatible representations of reality, referre...
