Topological order in a correlated three-dimensional topological insulator.
Motivated by experimental progress in the growth of heavy transition metal oxides, we theoretically study a class of lattice models of interacting fermions with strong spin-orbit coupling. Focusing on interactions of intermediate strength, we derive a low-energy effective field theory for a fully gapped, topologically ordered, fractionalized state with an eightfold ground-state degeneracy. This...
متن کاملSecond Harmonic Generation Imaging of a Magnetic Topological Insulator
A topological insulator (TI) is a type of quantum material that is insulating in the bulk but metallic on the surface. Due to the unique spin properties of the surface electrons, TIs have attracted much interest for their potential applications in spin-based electronics and quantum computers. Even more exotic effects occur when TIs are brought in contact with magnetic materials. This thesis rep...
متن کاملElectrically tuned magnetic order and magnetoresistance in a topological insulator.
The interplay between topological protection and broken time reversal symmetry in topological insulators may lead to highly unconventional magnetoresistance behaviour that can find unique applications in magnetic sensing and data storage. However, the magnetoresistance of topological insulators with spontaneously broken time reversal symmetry is still poorly understood. In this work, we investi...
متن کاملTopological Hermitian Cobordism
A decade ago, the authors [5] studied Real cobordismMR, anRO(Z/2)graded Z/2-equivariant spectrum discovered by Landweber [9], which is related to complex cobordismMU in the same way as Atiyah’s RealKtheory KR [1] does to K-theory. In particular, the authors computed the RO(Z/2)-graded coefficients of MR. A key step in that computation was the fact that MR is a complete Z/2-equivariant spectrum,...
متن کاملTopological transition in a non-Hermitian quantum walk.
We analyze a quantum walk on a bipartite one-dimensional lattice, in which the particle can decay whenever it visits one of the two sublattices. The corresponding non-Hermitian tight-binding problem with a complex potential for the decaying sites exhibits two different phases, distinguished by a winding number defined in terms of the Bloch eigenstates in the Brillouin zone. We find that the mea...
