Topological modes in dual lattice models.
Lattice gauge theory with gauge group ZP is reconsidered in four dimensions on a simplicial complex K. One finds that the dual theory, formulated on the dual block complex K̂, contains topological modes which are in correspondence with the cohomology group H2(K̂, ZP ), in addition to the usual dynamical link variables. This is a general phenomenon in all models with single plaquette based actions...
متن کاملObservation of topological valley modes in an elastic hexagonal lattice
We report on the experimental observation of topologically protected edge waves in a two-dimensional elastic hexagonal lattice. The lattice is designed to feature K-point Dirac cones that are well separated from the other numerous elastic wave modes characterizing this continuous structure. We exploit the arrangement of localized masses at the nodes to break mirror symmetry at the unit-cell lev...
متن کاملOn Freedman's Lattice Models for Topological Phases
The program of topological quantum computation is to realize fault tolerant quantum computation using topological phases of quantum systems [FKLW]. The central open question is whether or not there exist such physical systems which are capable of performing universal quantum computation. In [F], a family of Hamiltonians H0,l is proposed as candidates for the Chern-Simons phases, which are known...
متن کاملLattice of compactifications of a topological group
We show that the lattice of compactifications of a topological group $G$ is a complete lattice which is isomorphic to the lattice of all closed normal subgroups of the Bohr compactification $bG$ of $G$. The correspondence defines a contravariant functor from the category of topological groups to the category of complete lattices. Some properties of the compactification lattice of a topological ...
متن کاملExperimental observation of anomalous topological edge modes in a slowly driven photonic lattice
Topological quantum matter can be realized by subjecting engineered systems to time-periodic modulations. In analogy with static systems, periodically driven quantum matter can be topologically classified by topological invariants, whose non-zero value guarantees the presence of robust edge modes. In the high-frequency limit of the drive, topology is described by standard topological invariants...
