Topological Crystals
Sunada’s work on topological crystallography emphasizes the role of the ‘maximal abelian cover’ of a graph X. This is a covering space of X for which the group of deck transformations is the first homology group H1(X,Z). An embedding of the maximal abelian cover in a vector space can serve as the pattern for a crystal: atoms are located at the vertices, while bonds lie on the edges. We prove th...
متن کاملRadiative topological states in one-dimensional resonant photonic crystals
We present a theory of topological edge states in onedimensional resonant photonic crystals with compound unit cell. We demonstrate how the structure, despite being onedimensional, can be characterized by topological indices. Contrary to conventional electronic topological states the modes under consideration are radiative, i.e., they decay in time due to the light escape through the structure ...

متن کاملTopological glass states
In connection with recent discussion of topological order and topological phase transitions in quantum systems, we reexamine circumstances that lead to the appearance of a topological glass in certain classical lattice spin models. Local bonding enforces constraints on low energy states which organize themselves into topologically distinct classes that break ergodicity but not any apparent symm...
